Your injury seems to be several orders of magnitude more severe.

I'm not sure about which impact of mine that you are referring to as the first concussion I sustained 1,5 years ago was against a window sill and the more recent one against a ceiling, but in both cases I felt substantial symptoms immediately. Maybe you have me confused with someone else?
I can only speak for myself, but I'm hoping for a complete recovery. I still have trouble with noisy environments and being around people but I'm currently managing studying sociology at university at full speed. It might take years before I'm fully (or as good as fully) recovered but I can't be sure that my healing has stagnated until I'm in the grave. I feel like the mentality regarding one's recovery has to be one's own.
