Thank you so much for your quick response! That's very helpful to hear. I am 29 and I've never had a concussion before (never played sports, don't ride bikes, don't go in for thrills
), and staying inside all the time makes my mind wander to bad places.
It's hard to say no to my computer and to reading. I'll try just laying quietly tonight in bed before sleep.
Not drinking alcohol or eating a lot of sugar has already been very nice to my waistline!

No tv, no reading, no computer, no smartphone etc. For as long as you can. It would be best if you limited all noises too. Music, conversations, etc.
You'll probably also hear the regular advice of no alcohol, caffeine, sugar, msg, etc.
Basically you need to completely rest your brain and give it the best environment and nutrients to heal!
Good luck and I hope you recover over the weekend and we never hear from you again! Good luck on Tuesday.
