How Ca Severe Depression Be Managed?

I have had an on again off again relationship with a man who suffered a traumatic brain injury 20 years ago. A nail went through his eye and lodged into his right frontal lobe before being surgically removed. Although he appears to be be high functioning he still suffers from apparent emotional problems. I don’t know what to do to help him cope emotionally or even if there is anything I can do. What would be your advice?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
A neurologist can explain this to you in person. If there is a non-repairable damage to the frontal lobe, the behavioral change associated with the person is common. A detailed examination of the brain is required.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. K. V. Anand
