Hi Wheyhey,

I just joined too. I'm 29. I had a concussion in July. I have developed seizures (or, "seizure-like" activity) as well as a list of other things that come and they go.

I have had anxiety attacks since the concussion. They are so terribly frightening. I just sit through them, and tell myself they will pass. Also, I allow myself to have bad days. If I experience a good day, or a better day, I thank God and try to live in the moment and soak it up.

I recently had a horrible time getting my loved ones to understand what I am going through. It's so easy for people not to realize what's going on. I am trying to find the supportive people and stick to them. I also like this forum because people are pretty upbeat and it's a place for "mental rest" = knowing people will understand.

You are 23 which is good because you have many years to heal. Also, try getting second opinions if you can. I am in the process of doing that.
