Hi there
A similar thing happened to me yesterday. I am 1 year Post-Concussion Syndrome. My mom was driving around 50 mph and wasn't paying attention and noticed the light ahead was red. I was looking down at the time. She slammed on the brakes (she is a heavy braker), and I have been very worried and scared ever since. My body definitely was thrusted forward with the braking.
I've tried to convince myself that this is no different than a roller coaster, but I am not convinced as I have a headache. I did not hit my head, but I've read that a "jerk to the body" can cause a concussion.
Just worried I will have another and could use some insight.

What scared was not necessarily the initial braking but the fact that she let go of the brake and braked again. It's just pretty scary to experience with an already sensitive head.
