I'm sick of it and am going to take online courses even if I never work again.
Ive obsessed on the whos, hows, and whys of my injury and it has accomplished nothing. Don't let my mistakes be wasted. Learn from them.
I don't know what i'll be like a year or ten years from now but staying on the couch terrified hasn't helped any...just saying
I know a lot of you guys are early in your injuries so it is tough not to obsess, just whatever you can do that is healthy and gets your mind off the injury, do it.

I know how u feel, I also anaylize every symptom and drives me crazy and I guess it's because I was always worried about everything that feels wrong in my body and I did that before my concussion,
Like right now my feet have been cold and like a weird feeling and I have been fatigued so I though of course that something was majorly wrong but it might just be B12 deficiency.
I got to stop looking up everything, I saw this pic on Facebook that is perfect for me it says like "looked up my symptoms on WebMd and I'm dying"
I got to stop and just realize that I'm somewhat fine because I noticed that I don't eat well
