Default head sensitivity

I can relate to a lot of what people are writing here. I thought I was going nuts. I have to wear a hat at all times to cushion my head. I'm also very concerned about hitting my head but I have to live. I have worn a hat since the day after my concussion. Even in the house. Knit hats. Those hats with the faker and ear covers. If I don't wear one I get anxious. Like my head feels exposed.

I notice when I am in a car and my head bumps against the seat that it is sensitive. So strange. I just focus on something else. Aromatherapy has helped me. I know its not for everybody. It helps your brain refocus. I believe the olfactory sense is the fastest. I use peppermint oil or anise hyssop (dried). It also helped with woozy symptoms. I'm not an aromatherapy kind of gal either I stumbled upon it accidentally. Worth a try for those struggling.
