Default Questions about PCS and later dementia

I have been reading about many NFL players who are now suffering from dementia and are struggling mentally because of playing through concussions while they played. Now I never played through concussions and was getting hit hard while I had concussions, but there were times when I was suffering from PCS and i would get very light hits to the head. Most people wouldnt even consider them worrisome. I know I shouldn't be thinking about this, but its hard to whenever you are still somewhat struggling with it over a year later. I feel like these guys in the NFL definitely have it worst then me because they probably suffered severe concussions and were getting hit a lot harder then me, but as everyone says, a concussion is a concussion. Any thoughts.
