Looking back now, Annie recognizes the symptoms. Sleep was nearly impossible, things like getting out of bed to brush her teeth could take hours, and she would often forget things. “There was a period of time where I couldn’t drive,” Annie explained. “I didn't recognize the highway. I didn't know where to go anymore … I was completely confused of where I was.” The idea that she might have suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI) at the hands of her abusive ex-partner didn’t even cross her mind.
