Jemahon,

I'm so glad you found this forum, but I'm so sorry that you have to be here. I'm amazed that you have kept your job for so long, and been able to do the work. I worked a few days after my first concussion, and had to leave the building vomiting and spinning. I don't even really remember being there for half the day.

I haven't been able to return to work, and it's been a little over 7 months for me. I recieved disability through my employer, and now am in the process of applying for social security disability. It's grueling, and I feel weird about the whole thing, but hopefully it will come through soon.

I was a very active, nonstop girl in my life before my concussion. It was very difficult for me to accept this and slow down to where I am today. I know it's a struggle to just get through the day at home, I can't imagine what you go through every day.

Keep logged in here, you will get a whole lot of information. I'll be praying for you!
