New member... Here for concussion
 

I'm Shady and I'm a 15 year old male and was just diagnosed with concussion

On August 2nd I was playing basketball with friends and I rammed my head against another kids head

What sucks other than having a concussion is that I didn't feel anything other than a headache for 4 days and didn't rest because I didn't know

This isn't my first concussion and I had my first concussion when I was 4

Hello & Welcome!!
 

Welcome Shady. :Wave-Hello:

Thanks Darlene and Kitt,

I feel a lot better after people responding to me and helping me understand what is happening because my doctor may of never had a concussion and dosnt know how it feels internally and I know to REST now and that I gotta stop making myself crazy

Hi Shady. :Wave-Hello:

We have talked already in the TBI/PCS forum.

I hope you're feeling less anxious about everything today.

Yes, you must rest. It's difficult when you're usually very busy, but maybe try some breathing exercizes or something like that. They can be very helpful and slow down that anxiety about what's been happening.

take care of yourself there.

Thanks Lara,

Yeah I feel better and a little less anxious and talking about it helps a little and hearing that i will get better with rest and me worrying about it all day dosent help...
