The mental confusion is real and physiologically based.

Your current high level of anxiety likely makes this symptoms more apparent since you are constantly noticing these symptoms, even when they are minor. In the past, we would just 'shake off' these momentary feelings and they would go away. Now, they last longer and get our attention causing anxiety to increase.

I take a pragmatic approach. I notice the symptom. I can usually pinpoint the movement that caused it. I chalk it up to that movement and try to ignore it and go on. I can't change the past (the sudden movement) so I try not to worry or focus on it.

For a boxer, this issue takes on a whole different meaning. I'll leave that one alone.
Thanks for the useful tip mark. I agree with you that its more of the anxiety than the actual issue. Are these regular car bumps of concern ? They are almost inevitable and we cant hold back on our lives because of this stupid problem. I am not talking about those big jolts at high speeds just those small to moderate bumps here and there.

I got into my new car today and went for a small 10 minute drive out of excitement to check it out. When I returned, I felt some pain around my forehead which gradually increased to become moderate headache, which is a new symptom to me after 6 months. It so ****ing messed up I just dont feel like myself at all. Perhaps I need to wait for a couple of months and maybe I will improve more.
