I appreciate the response my friend. I’m not sure I understand, are you claiming this incident caused further damage to my brain or not?

I think a lot of the sensitivity issues were anxiety related for me more then anything so many of the things which really bothered me previously no longer cause any issues at all. However, this fall was just by far the worst incident I’ve experienced since this whole post concussion thing started so that’s why I am reacting the way I am.

Picture a glass globe. Now picture it having an impact and the physical structures of the globe have cracks and crack more easily with subsequent impacts. The globe is your skull and brain; they both actually can withstand lots of impacts and heal amazingly well. But if there are cracks within the globe (think of broken bonds between the atoms that makeup the neurons and other brain cells), then you will experience symptoms until the bonds come back together.

There are a number of ways to bring back the structural integrity of the cells. Diet is big. Red light therapy. Exercise is big. Cold water therapy. Matrix Repatterning. And so on.

The neck plays a huge role as well. There are tons of nerves and the brain stem. It twists with whiplash and gets damaged easily. I find infrared light therapy incredibly healing when I shine at the base of my skull especially. Very inexpensive ($30-40) for an incredible light.

I had terrible anxieties of my head with this sensation. The best way is to understand that you really are not damaging your brain any more with subconcussive impacts. Yes, you may be experiencing symptoms. I get that, and I had them. But realize them for what they are. Take your attention off of your head and brain area - there is too much focus there, speaking from personal experience. Focus with your eyes and attention on the task at hand and do not dwell on your symptoms.

You will heal. Keep at it. Let me know if you have any questions.
