Through my experience, once a person is labeled as having a brain injury it's essentially like being told game over. You have no real hope (it seems)... you cannot trust certain medical professionals... you start feeling like an inconvenience...you are often not believed.... Basically when in my shoes, you must be careful how you act.
Your family does these things without realizing them because of the love they have for you and often think they are helping but in reality being stubborn ..remember you can no longer be believed or at least that is what ...you... start to believe
How could you possibly know more about yourself then the doctor?
