Back in 2002 my sister rolled her car like 5 times when she reached down to pick up a cd she dropped. Her car was completely demolished rescue said they didnt know how she survived. She had had a few drinks so when the police came they took her to jail instead of the hospital. When she got out of the jail she was severely depressed and never went back to work. She made a good living, was very self sufficient and had a very active social life. She didnt complete her dwi classes and things and ended up going back to jail numerous times after. She has gone from one drug to the next finally ending w/leaving a newborn addicted to heroin at the hospital to run off and do more heroin. She told me the last time I talked to her, two yrs after her accident that that night ruined her life that she's never been able to shake that. Is it possible she had a head injury that was never diagnosed? She was an attractive successful lady who loved her family and adored babies and I have NO idea whatsoever who she is now.Do you know someone who had a severe personality change after a car accident/possible head injury?
My brother-in-law got in a fight with two other guys who hit him really really hard in the front part of the head (forehead region). My mother-in-law said he had been acting strange after that incident...acting not like himself...forgot things and started acting impulsively (didn't think before doing an action). He killed himself shortly after that after a small fight with his girlfriend. After doing some research we believe his impulse control region of his brain (front part) was damaged in the earlier fight. That part inside us that says ';hmm I may disagree with this person, but what are the consequences of the actions I am about to take?';
We wish we had a doctor take a much closer look at him after that fight. It seems like you have to force a doctor to care now days, to do more than the ';bare minimum'; check up.
I feel for your family and sister. Please try to get her to see a doctor and explain that she had a head injury a few years ago. Demand an MRI. Demand answers. Also please get her into some counseling. This new person is not your sister, but your old sister is still in there.
Good luck and God bless.Do you know someone who had a severe personality change after a car accident/possible head injury?
Yeah, it happens allot. If people have strokes or head injuries they can totally change. One person I knew went from crazy party girl to trying to cook and do crafts. It was kind of funny but not.

How many of you would you say your personality changed in the last 5 years?at would you like to ask?
Do you think your past relationships had any effects on this?How many of you would you say your personality changed in the last 5 years?at would you like to ask?
My personality has changed a little in the last 5 years because my son went away to college. I went from almost full-time mom to re-learning about myself, and I am a little different than I was.How many of you would you say your personality changed in the last 5 years?at would you like to ask?
Hmmmm, it's really hard to say if I think my personality has changed in the last 5 years. Change happens gradually, day by day, so we can't usually see if we have changed for that reason. I do think that ';I'; have changed in the past 5 years. I feel like I've learned some things and grown in compassion for the plight of others. I was so hard so sure about right %26amp; wrong, good %26amp; bad when I was young. Now I think I know that people are limited and everyone has their ';cross'; to bear. I used to be more insecure and now I am less so but I don't know if that reflects on my personality. I've always had a happy-go-lucky personality even though I have my crippling self-doubts but I always put effort into being the clown if you will. I'd say I've grown in the past 5 years but I don't know if my personality has changed? Maybe it has? I just don't see it. I'm too close to it to know. In terms of past %26amp; future relationships, yes they have shaped me, favorably. I remember all (but one to be truthful %26amp; it wasn't even a romantic one) with fondness.
I think my personality basically has not changed, but the way I act and look at life has. I've gone from mid 40s to early 50s and I am taking on a more mature outlook on the world and acting a little bit more responsible. I am a three times married and now divorced woman that should bear the brunt of it all on my face and body, but apparently I made a pact with the devil somewhere along the line because I still look like I'm mid to late 30s to most people. I attribute it to good genes and really oily skin. I am less playful and more serious. I think more about the future and death and dying than ever before. I think more about what is really important in my life, my relatives, my pets, etc. I do not think my basic personality has changed, but my views on life and people has.
Mine definitely has. I tried to be someone I wasn't during my last relationship. I,m back to being me again. And I'm going to stay being me, my true friends like having me back
I have changed in the last 5 years, and not one of my previous relationships has anything to do with it.
I do ask myself why I put up with sh*t for so long. But now, my wife and life is perfect, and I wouldn't go backwards for a ￡any billions of pounds.
Happiness cannot be bought or paid for. Love has no price. I'd pay dearly for the love I have now; I'd pay with my life.
I've changed alot in the last 3 years.Back then i was a little miserable thing at war with the world.Hated everyone in it and everyone seemed to hate me.I'd lost my dad to cancer,my mum never spoke to me - no-one cared, i didn't care if i lived or died.Then in July 2006 my life changed.I met the man who is now my fiance.Sounds corny but for the first time since my dad's death i began to smile.The world seemed brighter and i began to notice things around me - even little things like the birds singing.
Gradually i became a happier,more caring person.Small things upset me,can't watch sad movies without crying whereas before i'd just sit glaring at the TV.I'm a totally different person.My mum and i started talking properly for the first time in years.We even became friends and were right up to her death in August.My friends from 'my dark days' don't even recognise me anymore- personality wise,I'm just so different, and i owe it all to my wonderful fiance because without him i really don't think i'd even be here now.
yeahh I would say I have changed umm no I dont think so that any relationshiops did really

How can i change my personality from introvert into extrovert..?
frnds, i m 22 yr old boy..i m introvert.i m very quiet ,shy,unconfident..as i think i made lil bit late to take the decision..
due to introvert , i really loss lots of thing in my life..nd i tends to change my personality to extrovert..so i want tips from ..only serious answer are only acceptable...i m comp. prog.How can i change my personality from introvert into extrovert..?
Medication is a must to avoid, if possible. the fact that you recognize and can articulate your problem suggests drugs are NOT the answer.
You're 22; you have a lot of life ahead of you. Don't get stuck on what-all you haven't done; focus on what it will take to move forward, to get your needs met.
Luck to you, m'friend.How can i change my personality from introvert into extrovert..?
Drugs like ambienpure work wonders
You cannot change your personality. But you can go out of your way to be friendly, loud, and confident.
Time to get drunk baby! It really brings out the extrovert in many people.
Seriously, you have to realize that life is short, and if you hang around in the side lines being shy your whole life, you are going to have a crap life. Really analyze what the worst thing that can happen from being a little more confident. Someone you don't give a crap about is mean to you? Who cares? Life is there for the taking, go out and grab it.
Well you need to practice your people skills by being more proactive and getting out more and interacting with people next time you go to the store for example insteading of going to get food go to meet a new person, but while your there pick up some food its just about being friendly to people and putting yourself out there more
Well, to start off I think you should get a buddy. Yes someone who is already popular who can teach you the ropes. Make sure you pick someone you can look up to. And don't follow them excatly, take you spin on things that they do. If you can't find anyone to look up to. Think of your heroes and read about them. Read their autobiography or biography. You might find something in there that will help you get a good start on confidence.
Think of the other person and assume he/she is feeling the same way. Try to concentrate on making the other person comfortable, and you'll find that you have forgotten about your shyness. Complement (honestly) them on something they might be wearing, or ask them what they think about a tv show/movie/whatever. Eventually you'll find a mutually enjoyable subject, and who knows? You might find yourself in a lively group discussion!! Relax. Have fun. And good luck!
All right, first of all, you can't ';change your personality.'; Not completely, at least. If you're an introvert you'll always be somewhat of an introvert. But you can be *more* extroverted at least. I have had the same problem all my life, and the two things that have helped me the most are finding someone, and getting a job that forces me to be chatty and personable. At this point in your life, you're probably all settled into your career, though. Right now I'm working at a coffehouse, and we are required to talk to each customer and be very personable so they will want to come back. I've only been there three weeks and my manager has told me I'm completely changed. So maybe something like that wouldn't work for you, though, since you already have a steady ';career.';
So in place of that, here's what I suggest: set goals for yourself. When you wake up in the morning, tell yourself, ';Okay, I'm going to talk to at least three people I don't know today.'; It can be anything-- waiting in the grocery checkout line, at your work, just force yourself to talk to people. It will be awkward and maybe a little embarassing at first, but soon it will start to feel natural, and you'll get better.
Also, I gained a lot of confidence from having a significant other. I know you can't just snap your fingers and make a girlfriend appear, but try to interact with girls. Flirt a little. Be kind and respectful. Maybe somebody will come your way. ;)
Well I know it's tough. I know where you're coming from. But you'll do great. Just remember that you don't *have* to be an extrovert persay, because your introversion is hardwired into your system already. You'll be a lot more confident if you learn to *like* that about yourself, trust me. Be aware that you can have self confidence and still be introverted. That's sometimes the most attractive kind of guy there is. ;) Well, good luck!
Your nature is your nature, if you become something that is not your nature you will suffer in duality. Be comfortable with who you are. Your perceptions of ';self'; may not be what others see in you. You are 22, nothing is permanent. You will not be the same person in 1 year, 5 years or 10. Be patient with yourself. Love who you are and be harmless to yourself and others. Remember you are the master of your life, you are only what you think that you are and 99% of the time, or perecptions are wrong.
That's quite a challenge there, and just by asking seems like you're pressured by doing so. First of all good things happen to good people, (although it doesn't appear like that on the news). If you're genuinely a good person, reassure yourself of that. Feeling confident about oneself of at least one noticeable thing, puts you on that extrovert path already. When you feel comfortable in your own space, try sharing that space with someone who shares common interests. All it takes is opening the right door, the one you feel comfortable and confident opening. Behind that door I guarantee will be a world of doors for you to open, if you choose to. You haven't lost out on anything, life is about reproduction and opportunities will always reproduce. You just have to know when to reach out for it. Just stay true to yourself and choose your battles wisely. Just because you change your image doesn't make you shine.
I disagree with those who say you can't change your personality. I was the quietest, dorkiest, sweet little thing for the first 15 years of my life. Ha not anymore. I am 24 now and nobody even remembers me being that shy introverted girl who couldn't even answer questions in class without shaking and getting quesy. Now it won't be instant or anything but rather a year or two before you really shine but the trick is to just do it. Take a public speaking class at a community college. Give your closet a makeover. If you dress conservatively you are more prone to act so. Try hot topics. The more attention your clothes get the more your expected to give too. Then go somewhere you have never been and never plan to go again. Where you don't know anyone. Force it. Act like you know everyone you walk past. Just start talking like you know them. Most people will be confused and think they should know you and talk back. Do it until you can do it around real friends.
';22 yr old boy'; - Are you saying your child-like? Are you attending college? What's your normal day like?
Without those answers I'm just going to assume that you live with your mom, have no ambition, no job, no friends, stay at home on your PC, etc...
The first thing that you want to do is meet someone who is extroverted. This is easier than you might think. The first thing you might want to consider finding places that are social, that center around things you like to do.
For instance, let's say that you like card games (be it Magic, poker, etc). You would want to go to a place where a group of people play those games. This could be at a local comic shop, casino, or anything that involves groups of people enjoying what you enjoy.
Now that you're playing with those people there's a good chance that they'll begin talking with you. The good thing about playing a game with these people is the fact that you don't really have to worry about what your body is doing (you'll be playing cards, looking at your hand, messing with chips, etc) and you can focus on just having a normal conversation with this person. It's much easier to converse with people when you have something to do.
Just really try to loosen up. These people don't know you and if you'd like to, you could probably avoid them for the rest of your life.
Think of things that you really feel comfortable doing and go out where people are doing them.
After you begin to feel comfortable talking with people while doing something you enjoy it'll be easier just to talk with people in general.
One of the most important things to do is TRY! Don't just read everyone's advice and do nothing. Good luck.
you can try to learn how to act, once you've made a fool out of yourself with acting with emotions and characters that you don't feel or have, you'll naturally feel more confident and find that expressing yourself isnt that difficult after all.

My friends Boxer has had a personality change. Help ?
My friend has a 4 year old boxer who up until the begining of this year has always been great with other dogs. But recently she cant walk him near other dogs as he pounces on them and pins them on to the floor. He doesn't hurt them just dominate them, but she is now afraid that one of these dogs might turn nasty or that Murphy himself might one day. The only thing she can think of that has happened is she and her husband were walking him one day and as they rounded a corner there was a puppy that started barking and snapping at him, her husband and the puppys owner got in to an argument about it, and it did get a little heated but they soon moved off. But since then she has had trouble with Murphy, she says it almost like he wants to pin them down and dominate them. Does anyone have any ideas as to how she can resolve this problem. We have another friend who she walks her dog with and Murphy is fine with Stanley but they have been walking together since Stanley was a puppy. Any ideas?My friends Boxer has had a personality change. Help ?
This was just on Oprah. Nate a regular on Oprah had 2 problem dogs. One was a tad aggressive the other a backer. The' Dog Whisperer' was called. Get his book from the library. Your friend needs to change her position as pack leader. The dog needs to be trained to watch her for instructions always.
Maybe Oprah has a tape or on her Web for more. Maybe he has a site too.My friends Boxer has had a personality change. Help ?
Dogs are pack animals. They want to earn their spot in the pack. Your friend obviously is NOT the Alpha to this dog. This is very important. Train train train train.... I cannot stress this enough.
The dog is trying to tell other dogs in the area that he/she is the alpha, but he/she needs to learn he/she is not, through the owner, and now.
Find a traing course in the area and take it, before the lawsuits start.
Maybe another dog hurt, or tried to hurt him? I had a boxer who was the sweetest thing and worshiped the ground I walked on. Then, I had a car accident with him inthe car. After that, he wouldn't have anything to do with me. He would even bark %26amp; growl when I came around him :(.
My dog she is a pit bull-boxer mix and she duz the same thing when i take her for walks and she acts the same around my other dogs but she is just trying to dominate them and when my dog duz that she growls, so they just need to correct her and if she actualy stared a fight than maybe they need to get rid of her.
Teach her an ';alternative behavior'; ... next time you go for a walk... take a bag of treats with you... the very second YOU see another dog ... (hopefully before she does) ask him to sit and reward him lavishly... He can not pin the other dogs if he is sitting and giving you attention but YOU have to be MORE REWARDING! You might want to ';set this up'; a few times with a friend and a known dog and in the mean time avoid ';practicing the poor behavior';
I think you partially answered it yourself... Murphy saw how humans respond to threatening behavior, and, how we are also aggressive in our day to day beliefs, protections, and convictions... law of the jungle, don't start nothing you can't finish, etc...
My dog started doing the same thing after watching me pin down my girlfriends, and after all, sex can seem quite agressive to a ever studying young pup and then seeing the rewards of closeness and gratitude thereafter. It could give the dog mixed messages when all of a sudden its just not ok for them to behave in similiar fashions, just like their human gods. The dog might even think your nuts for not seeing the hypocracy.
Dogs are decendants of wolves, period.
Yes, we breed the tamer ones, but, they do not wipe and they do not vote.
They can't flip a light switch, and they couldn't give a dang about having to shampooing the rug again.
They want (must have) a sense of purpose. To protect, to regulate other dogs, to comfort, to accompany, to comply...
Luckily, Murphy isn't a punk... other dogs may think (or are led to believe) they are just so special they must be bulletproof.
Hard as it may be to accept, Murphy is helping other dogs to accept a dose of reality.
There are things in this world that puppies and sheltered pets dont know about, that are bigger, stronger, faster, and smarter... like cars, coyotes, wolves, etc. (need I say more?)...
At 4 years old, Murphy is acting like a pack elder... being that he isn't ripping open throats or breaking skin, he is acting from best intentions... naturally.
Advise ??? Umm... DO NOT expect him to ';attack'; other dogs... that was something that happened in the past.
Move on so he can follow your lead.
Be friendly in advance to upcoming pets and owners, you are on neutral grounds.
Yes, he will not want his owner pissed off, set the tone AND KEEP IT THAT WAY.
Dogs have their own languages and are a great judge of character, give them the benifit of a doubt and most importantly... make sure your not doing anything to escalate a tender situation
Best wishes... my regards to Murph.

Dogs are pack animals. They want to earn their spot in the pack. Your friend obviously is NOT the Alpha to this dog. This is very important. Train train train train.... I cannot stress this enough.
The dog is trying to tell other dogs in the area that he/she is the alpha, but he/she needs to learn he/she is not, through the owner, and now.
Find a traing course in the area and take it, before the lawsuits start.
Maybe another dog hurt, or tried to hurt him? I had a boxer who was the sweetest thing and worshiped the ground I walked on. Then, I had a car accident with him inthe car. After that, he wouldn't have anything to do with me. He would even bark %26amp; growl when I came around him :(.
My dog she is a pit bull-boxer mix and she duz the same thing when i take her for walks and she acts the same around my other dogs but she is just trying to dominate them and when my dog duz that she growls, so they just need to correct her and if she actualy stared a fight than maybe they need to get rid of her.
Teach her an ';alternative behavior'; ... next time you go for a walk... take a bag of treats with you... the very second YOU see another dog ... (hopefully before she does) ask him to sit and reward him lavishly... He can not pin the other dogs if he is sitting and giving you attention but YOU have to be MORE REWARDING! You might want to ';set this up'; a few times with a friend and a known dog and in the mean time avoid ';practicing the poor behavior';
I think you partially answered it yourself... Murphy saw how humans respond to threatening behavior, and, how we are also aggressive in our day to day beliefs, protections, and convictions... law of the jungle, don't start nothing you can't finish, etc...
My dog started doing the same thing after watching me pin down my girlfriends, and after all, sex can seem quite agressive to a ever studying young pup and then seeing the rewards of closeness and gratitude thereafter. It could give the dog mixed messages when all of a sudden its just not ok for them to behave in similiar fashions, just like their human gods. The dog might even think your nuts for not seeing the hypocracy.
Dogs are decendants of wolves, period.
Yes, we breed the tamer ones, but, they do not wipe and they do not vote.
They can't flip a light switch, and they couldn't give a dang about having to shampooing the rug again.
They want (must have) a sense of purpose. To protect, to regulate other dogs, to comfort, to accompany, to comply...
Luckily, Murphy isn't a punk... other dogs may think (or are led to believe) they are just so special they must be bulletproof.
Hard as it may be to accept, Murphy is helping other dogs to accept a dose of reality.
There are things in this world that puppies and sheltered pets dont know about, that are bigger, stronger, faster, and smarter... like cars, coyotes, wolves, etc. (need I say more?)...
At 4 years old, Murphy is acting like a pack elder... being that he isn't ripping open throats or breaking skin, he is acting from best intentions... naturally.
Advise ??? Umm... DO NOT expect him to ';attack'; other dogs... that was something that happened in the past.
Move on so he can follow your lead.
Be friendly in advance to upcoming pets and owners, you are on neutral grounds.
Yes, he will not want his owner pissed off, set the tone AND KEEP IT THAT WAY.
Dogs have their own languages and are a great judge of character, give them the benifit of a doubt and most importantly... make sure your not doing anything to escalate a tender situation
Best wishes... my regards to Murph.
Do babies usually have a personality change around 4 Months?
I was always bragging about how GOOD my baby was! and I think I spoke too soon! I mean my baby will always be good to me no matter what, but he went from being good, and sitting on his bouncy chair, or being anywhere I sat him to screaming OUT-LOUD every-time I leave the room for even 1 second, and he doesnt want to sit on his chair anymore for longer than 5 minutes?
He looks restless all the time?? Did your baby did something similar around 4 or 5 months?
Mom for the very 1st time!
Thanks and how's everyone doing tonite? I hope you're all doing great as well as your cubs!!!Do babies usually have a personality change around 4 Months?
Hi, so how was your labor? You said you were scared about the whole thing! Congrats on your son! Your son`s behaviour is completely normal. My little girl went through the same thing, she would not let me leave the room, it`s a security thing. She also didn`t want to sit in her bouncy for very long or her swing, she wanted to be always changing what she was doing, which is normal. I got one of those bumbo chair`s and that way she could sit in it surrounded by toys and her bottle and she really liked that. I felt like it got a little easier when she began crawling, around 7 months, and now that she is walking it is a lot easier! She doesn`t want me in the room all the time and I have more freedom! Now I`m just waiting for her to be done with breastfeeding and then my family can babyit for a whole night!!Do babies usually have a personality change around 4 Months?
All three of my kids did that. When my twins went through that I was beside myself with stress because I had JUST figured them out. Ugh.
My son did it too but I expected it so I wasn't as horrified when it happened but he did it too in a baaad way. I carried him around all the time.

Can a cat's personality change when moved to a new home??
I bought a cat from a breeder in Russia and he was shipped to me in California... At the breeders, he ';ruled the roost';, was very playful, and slept in the breeder's bed. At his new home with me, he hides under the bed all day every day except to go potty and eat. If I so much as move he runs and hides. He seems very skiddish. I wonder if this will get better or if he's going to be an under-the-bed nervous cat. He won't let me near him :( He's 10 months old too! Is this from the transition or is this how he's going to be??? It's been 2 weeks :(Can a cat's personality change when moved to a new home??
it's perfectly normal. once your cat starts to feel more at home he will start coming out but sticking to the sides of your walls just talk to him in a soothing voice and dont try to push. you can also try treats like canned fancy feast and such to let him know your on his side.Can a cat's personality change when moved to a new home??
let him choose his roost weather with you or some where else
yes just be patience with the cat. Cause when we moved my cat wouldn't eat for 3 days but she's fine now. Also moved is a big change for cats.
Yes, that happened to my cat as well. He is and was an outdoor cat, but not as much now as when he was in our old house. When we moved, he changed from a fit, energetic hunter to a boring, obese house cat. He only goes outside once in a while to go to the bathroom and ';explore'; our back porch. We think it may be because our neighbors cats were also outdoor cats, and they had already ';claimed'; our yard. maybe it is the opposite with your cat. He has nothing to rule over and doesnt have anything to do...?
Tha'ts normal. When i moved, my cat stayed inside for almost a month. She wouldn't go outside unless i was with her. But she's used to everything now. Just give the cat sometime. My cat was also about 10 month when we moved so don't worry to much about it. If you get really worried, you can always take him to the vet. They can give him some medicine to calm him down.
he went through a very stressful travel time. he should warm up to you soon. give him treats when he does come out and it may help.a scottish name imply within dos
