Hi rehabilitative exercises should be done.it is normal to feel angry, anxious or depressed after a stroke. Rehabilitation is about getting back to normal life and living as independent a life as possible. It involves taking an active approach to ensure that your life goes on. This can mean learning new skills or relearning old ones. It may involve adapting to new limitations and post-stroke conditions you would be on all particular medicine so I will talk about rehabilitation here-try to walk don't overexert, set small goals and try to fulfill them strict control of blood pressure less than 130/70 is the target, you are a go to a speech therapist and a physiotherapist. Keep a strict control over blood pressure diabetes, changed due to stroke takes time to recover cognitive enhancers like Gino Balboa and nootropic can be tried to thank you
