Gardening
In recent years I took to planting flower seeds. I have two small indoor greenhouse gardens for my impatiens (annual flowers). I found that planting seeds and watering the seedlings was something I could do while my brain is healing. All the lovely green and some blooms now is pure poetry to my eyes. The green is against the gray, cold, unspringlike weather we are experiencing here in Minnesota. (More snow coming)
Yes, I can put away other hobbies and must learn to be more patient in waiting for the right time to take them out again.
I am knitting though and that is a great sense of satisfaction.
Yes, it really is.
Blessings to you

[SIZE="1"]What happened. I was in a car accident 2-23-2013, and got a mild concussion from it. I had some time off for brain rest, got somewhat better, but slipped into PCS in March 2013.
Symptoms I had: dizziness, light and sound sensitivity, fatigue, tinitis, occasional headaches and migraines,
Symptoms as of 5--2013: poor sleep, tinitis, some confusion /short term memory blanks, balance. The other symptoms are mostly gone, but flare up if I OVERdo something.
Therapy I had: vestibular
3 months in: I could drive more and for longer distances. I felt like a younger, happier version of myself and I feel so blessed to have this feeling.
9 months in and I am working full time. I do get tired, and some sound and light sensitivity from time to time, but mostly I am over most of my symptoms.
I pray every day and I m praying for your recovery.
Over a year in: I can multi task (limited) and have humor in my life. But when I am tired, I am very tired.
