Anyone else feel like they are hung over after Christmas?
I functioned like crap the entire day yesterday but still managed to pull through (with frequent breaks). I woke up this morning feeling like my head has been trampled by elephants. I could barely get a sentence out. I walked around in circles while trying to figure out how to change my son's diaper and make him breakfast. Left the milk out. Left the cereal out. Left the fridge open...lol. Not even gonna mention what happened to the dirty diaper.
This is truly the worst day of my life...lol.
I can't get any rest because, well, I've got a little maniac to take care of.
Anyone else feel like they've been hit by a train today?

What happened: I was randomly assaulted from behind in June of 2011. I was knocked unconscious for an unknown amount of time (less than 30 minutes) and have no memory of the event. CT scan showed contusion and hematoma of the left frontal lobe. I spent 3 days in the hospital. Diagnosed with Post-Concussion Syndrome in September 2011. Currently have Medicaid, Medicare and SSI.
Current symptoms: Brain fog, mild memory issues, problems with spontaneity, occasional spacing out, word finding difficulties, tinnitus in right ear and some other things that I can't explain.
Life after the brain injury: 4 years after the injury, I'm engaged to my beautiful girlfriend of 5 years, I'm the CEO of my own business, Notorious Labs, I've taught myself how to program complex games and apps which is a feat I never thought I'd accomplish and now live a semi-normal life with very mild PCS symptoms.
Slowly but surely regaining my life back.
