Default Are you always afraid of hitting your head?

That might sound a little weird, but it's something that I've noticed since I had my car accident and first got PCS.

Every car I see on the road, every door I look at, ever sharp corner or window ledge or anything remotely large or heavy, I imagine as a threat to my safety. I am worried it is going to hit my head, and in the moment, I can "feel" the impact of the accident in my mind, sort of like re-living it.

My friends tease me about "ducking" in lower doorways, etc. but I can't get over the anxiety and fear of hitting my head.

Does anyone go through this, too?
