Thanks you guys for all of the encouragement. Last week was a bad one for some reason. I had a few days that I felt so down. I really like Bud's description of what it's like...the feeling of not being able to come back to yourself.

I had an appointment with my neuro psychologist on the weekend, and she pointed out that in my explaining to her times when I'd get stuck (ie. Debit machine, ordering food) I would panic. She thinks that although I've never had anxiety, my concussion is bringing out anxiety because things are more difficult and scarier.

She has now said I can try things for 10 minute increments as long as I don't get a headache.

I've added deep breathing, praying, and going to my mom's for a change of scenery. I am also looking into a support group.

Thank you so much for being there. It means so much to have people that understand.
