powerblackwolf,

Wow, what a story.

Where did you get your ideas about what a concussion is?

You have a lot of false information. There is a garbage pile of bad concussion information online, especially on Reddit and FB.

As Jomar said, you have likely suffered whiplash. The first event with the floor was likely more than whiplash but it appears you have resolved most of that.

Some details about concussions. It takes 60 Gs or even 80 to 90 Gs of acceleration/deceleration to cause a concussion.

It only takes 4 to 5 Gs in acceleration/deceleration to cause a whiplash event. Concussion and whiplash have symptoms that greatly overlap. Whiplash strains the neck, especially the upper neck and can cause inflammation similar to a concussion.

Braking hard in a car can only develop 1 to 1.5 Gs maximum. That braking action cannot cause any higher G forces unless the car or occupants hit a fixed object. The physics don't lie. The very best tires can only cause 1.5 Gs of deceleration.

To add to the braking event, people who struggle with anxiety usually have a very sensitive startle response. That startle can cause more symptoms than the whiplash or concussion.

Your attempts with an anti-inflammatory diet is very good but do it completely with no cheats, for 2 to 4 weeks minimum.

Rather than seeking medical attention, I suggest you seek help with PTSD and anxiety. Your posts reveal a serious struggle with anxiety.

Concussion fact: 80% of people who experience prolonged concussion struggles, beyond a few weeks, have a chronic struggle with anxiety or anxiety and depression.

Over the years on this forum, many have had similar experiences that continued until they sought help for and improved their anxiety issues. Some needed anti-anxiety meds, usually an SSRI or SNRI for 6 months as their anxious mind learned to settle down and not react to severely. Benzodiazepines, (Xanax, Ativan, Valium, Klonopin) are often prescribed for anxiety but they are not recommended when healing from a neurological trauma or stress. They sedate thought but do not help the patient reorient thoughts.

Most concussion clinics do not treat non-sports related concussions. Their protocols are focused on return to play and sometimes, return to study.

While you are out of school, you should find activities or jobs to keep your mind focused on productive tasks.

You might get some help from a practitioner who follows the Complete Concussion Management protocol. The author/developer of CCM, Dr Cameron Marshall, DC has a lot of good ideas but he is Return to Play oriented due to his training at Univ of Buffalo with sports teams. His protocol is rarely covered by insurance.
