Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Adaptive Self-Regulation of Unattainable Goals: Goal Disengagement, Goal Reengagement, and Subjective Well-Being

A blogger discussing it here;
Why "Never Give Up" is a Bad Motto
Some actual research behind it here;
http://www.psy.cmu.edu/faculty/scheier/scales/GAS_article.pdf 
Three studies examined associations between goal disengagement,
goal reengagement, and subjective well-being.In Study 1,
115 undergraduates reported on the extent to which they were
able to abandon unattainable goals and reengage their efforts in
alternative goals.Study 2 examined the importance of goal disengagement
and goal reengagement in groups of young adults
and older adults (N = 120).In Study 3, a sample of parents of
children with cancer and parents of medically healthy children
was examined (N = 45).The findings confirmed that goal disengagement
and goal reengagement can be associated with ratings
of high subjective well-being.In addition, the results
showed that goal disengagement and goal reengagement can
have interactive effects on subjective well-being.The importance
of the findings for effective self-regulation and successful
development are discussed.


I would expect your hospital psychiatrist would be using this after your doctor tells you, 'You won't recover'.

My goal of 100% recovery is not unattainable and I'm not delusional.

My other goal of completely changing everything in stroke to be 100% better might be delusional and unattainable but I'll keep trying, because someone will follow in my footsteps and eventually the stupidity of the stroke medical world will be exposed and changed for the better.
