I am a clincal hyphnotherapist and have a request from a women who suffered from a severe concussion a few months ago. She was accused of making threatening phone calls and insists she did not do it. Is it possible that after a severe concussion a few months ago she could have done this and not remember? .

Hello. I have been through your question and understand your concern.
Concussion is a clinical diagnosis as you might know, in absence of visible structural damage. The clinical aspect includes memory impairment even several months after the episode. Still, this should be evaluated by a psychiatrist in order to rule out any personality disorders, not related to the concussion.
Hope this helps.
