OCD is just one form of anxiety. Hypochondria is a form of anxiety. I think you have created a storm of PTSD (another form of anxiety) due to your OCD pounding thoughts into your head. It take a skilled therapist and likely some powerful meds to help you break this cycle of damaging thoughts. They may have caused chemical damage, not physiological damage. By that I mean, your brain has been flooded with stress chemicals and has become hyper-reactive to these chemicals. Your brain needs to get clean.

"Afterwards I actually contacted a harvard researcher on brain damage and he said that all hits to the head actually cause some level of damage including sudden jam brakes in the car, football headers etc, but it is only with a large number that we notice symptoms. Thus my hypochondria."

This Harvard researcher is grossly overstating the case. He failed to tell you that it takes hundreds, even a thousand head jerks over a period of a few months from braking to cause a problem, unless they were all done in continuous succession.

There is a greater risk of injury to the upper neck and the problems neck inflammation can cause with symptoms that can be identical to concussion symptoms.

My question for you is simple.

How can we help you ?

What happened on June 16th ?

It appears your OCD and such are causing you to act in ways that are against your best interests in healing. Have you taken any steps to correct that ?
