I would say you maybe have started to take your brain for granted. Those of us with TBI must recognize symptoms of it and act upon such.

If specialists cannot give you a reason, maybe the reason is simple - you need to shut your eyes again, no computers, tv, loud noises etc you know the drill.

i think what screwed me and what has taken me awhile to recover is me going back to work at feeling literally 50% and like crap. i had to go back i needed the money and figured it wouldnt be bad

since my concussion i havent given myself other than the weekends a really long time to rest

do you think im doing more harm? i work construction and usually get laid off from January to March so im hoping to hold out until January and get major rest then
