Hello everyone, I am new on the forum, happy to be here and hope you will help me a bit to understand what happened to me.
I was an amator motocross rider during my youth (from 8 to 18 years old) and suffered multiple concussions (4 KO and others subconcussive hits). I had over 3 years some PCS for sure (memory, headache and so on). But currently my main issues are the depersonalization and derealisation states. It consumes me literaly, because it is like i ve lost a part of myself ans can't interact with the physical world anymore. So I would like to know if someone has already dealt with that and recovered. (Even years after) I question myself if it can be a stress delayed response of my brain from past injuries (because at that time I wasn't really affected by them because I was a child) Or maybe the worst : CTE?? Is it physiological (permanent) or psychological (treatable-linked to how the brain cells are interconnected- functional)? I have already done CT scans- MRI (neck / head) - fmri and everything seems to be ok Thank you |

Hello Theo#245
Welcome to NeuroTalk, though sorry to hear of the concussions. We also have a PCS forum and so I placed a copy of your post there as well. Here is the link to it: Multiple concussions dpdr disorder |

Welcome to NeuroTalk. What is dpdr disorder? Do you mean depersonalization and derealisation? I've never heard either called a disorder. My first question is simple. How is your sleep? Not hours of sleep. Do you get deep restful sleep? Insomnia and disturbed sleep is a common struggle for people with a history of concussions. Do you know if you are breathing properly during your sleep? Do you have access to a Fit Bit or other worn body monitor to see how your body acts during sleep? Do you consume energy drinks or caffeine drinks? I have more questions but these need to be discussed first.
