Games For Broken Brains ?
Contemporary research suggests that mental activities with many arbitrary, simple rules may help recovery of cognitive function. Have you ever heard of a more enlightened description of computer games? This part of the site presents comments on games as a sort of mental gymnasium, or biofeedback treatment that’s fun. Playing computer games has helped bmfdmd (a Traumatic Brain Injury survivor) to recover most of his cognitive abilities. Perhaps a game or two will help put other broken brains back together.
Well, should I start another story or just continue with the rest of MILKO'S lifetime adventures? Da. S.r.(same reason)as used previously. If you' or I are in a mental institution just now as you read, then me writing this gibberish won't do either of us any good. So I guess the answer to that question will be; No matter what I do I'VE GOTTA QUIT ASKING QUESTIONS. Sorry can you ever forgive me? Op sorry. Well, anyway I'VE decided to stay on the roll, and tell you more about myself, er MILKO. Okay here's a new aspect of my web page. Here are some game reviews I did along time ago. My computer has been up and down so many times since I first did these it IS funny. I was gonna type "IT ISN'T FUNNY," but, that's sucha common thing to type, and it IS funny in a lot of ways. Let me just type this you better have a damn good computer, and/or a relative who's really upon the newest aspects of computing not unlike me. And I do recommend certain kinds of computer games for people to play, but you can't think of it as PLAYING games. It's more like, or should be treated more like another form of therapy, like making new friends on the Internet, is a type of rehabilitation therapy for me. Because I can type very personal things to my E-mail buddies, because I'M not worried about any thing detrimental to my well being happening to me just because of something I wrote something. It's sort of an unspoken rule that whatever is told to me or vice versa isn't told to anybody else. And I expect the same from my E-mail buddies. Now I'LL be the first to admit not everyone can live up to these standards. Therefore, I just don't tell my E-mail buddies everything, especially those kinds of things that I wouldn't want everyone to know. And so far I'VE only managed to get myself in hot water a coupla times. Well, before I wrap this up let me just warn you about adding any games to your computer that it can't handle. I'VE learned this from experience. And also it's not a good idea for TBI survivors TO PLAY GAMES THAT ARE EITHER TOO HARD OR TOO EASY. As this will cause you many problems let me explain. If the games are too hard, OR if they're too easy, you will get frustrated. If they're too hard you won't want to play them because you'll always be getting beat or you maybe can't get past a certain level. And if they're too easy you'll just founder on the game, in other words you'll play it so often you'll get sick of it. Now I tend to play SOLITAIRE a lot because, now, since my TBI, I like being by myself. Where as I used to be a real people person, but for some reason I'VE almost become AGORAPHOBIC as have many TBI survivors. And if you wanta be a stereotypical TBI survivor, then just sit in your house day in and day out playing computer games not unlike me. I always use the excuse, though, that I'M doing rehabilitation therapy. I don't know what kind of therapy one should call it though. Maybe, REC. therapy. Nuff typed on this subject, I', gonna go in and have some dinner. Now if that's not REC therapy I don't know what is. |
