You only have so much energy, and you need a lot of energy for your recovery. You may also find that if you overdo it, it will take a lot longer to recover than pre-accident.

I will sometimes suffer for days for one day of doing something difficult ie. son's prom or daughters dance competiton.

Symptoms can sometimes be prolonged if you do not do the required rest and no activity.

Good Luck I know it is really hard to deal with children and being not well.
