It's a scary situation, especially if you think people don't believe or understand what you're feeling.

My brother and I are in high school and have always been competitive athletes on our school teams. What you describe is not uncommon at all and as Mark in Idaho has explained its called a "post concussive syndrome" and its normal to have some anxiety about it. (BTW- my brother and I are new to this forum ourselves but we've gotta say that Mark in Idaho is great! Mark - whoever you are- thanks for always taking the time to offer great advice and encouragement!)

My brother and I and many of our friends have had concussions and we became concerned enough that we decided to try and do something to help other kids like you and like us. You can't prevent concussions 100%, but the more you know the more you can participate in your own recovery, and the less anxious you'll feel. It's important to play smart, and its even more important to stay smart.

Most of all it helps to know that you're not alone!
