Default Improvements?

I think I might be showing some improvements? I'm not quite sure yet...but I've been able to play games on my phone for 30 min at night before my brain becomes exhausted. It works out perfectly because at that time, its the end of the day and I could just sleep it off. Also, I've been able to withstand a short visit to the casino for three nights in a row without too many after effects.

Should I keep it up or slow it down? Is my brain starting to build tolerance to these things or should I expect a crash soon?

K thx everyone.

What happened: I was randomly assaulted from behind in June of 2011. I was knocked unconscious for an unknown amount of time (less than 30 minutes) and have no memory of the event. CT scan showed contusion and hematoma of the left frontal lobe. I spent 3 days in the hospital. Diagnosed with Post-Concussion Syndrome in September 2011. Currently have Medicaid, Medicare and SSI.

Current symptoms: Brain fog, mild memory issues, problems with spontaneity, occasional spacing out, word finding difficulties, tinnitus in right ear and some other things that I can't explain.

Life after the brain injury: 4 years after the injury, I'm engaged to my beautiful girlfriend of 5 years, I'm the CEO of my own business, Notorious Labs, I've taught myself how to program complex games and apps which is a feat I never thought I'd accomplish and now live a semi-normal life with very mild PCS symptoms.

Slowly but surely regaining my life back.
