You get rid of the anxiety by looking back to the times before you had that anxiety. You bumped your head just as often and never developed concussion symptoms. Then, you heard, watched, or read about concussions and the next time you bumped your head, your anxiety took over.

Did you see the movie 'Concussion'? Many people have developed Concussion Anxiety Syndrome after seeing that movie or having a coach teach a concussion awareness class to the team or some such exposure to the worries of a concussion.

Try to remember how you never developed concussion problems from those previous bumps. Why would you have problems now? It is remembered anxiety... Not true concussion symptoms.

Your brain plays the memorized symptoms. This is like PTSD flashbacks.

I get a short burst of symptoms when I watch somebody impact their head on TV.

What is the first symptom you sense when you have these events?
