I used to love latch hook kits!!! I should pick one up. Thanks for that!
I have a lot of problems with friends coming over. The constant chatting and having to act normal are mentally exhausting. You might be ok with it just be careful. I think legos are a great idea and so are puzzles. One other one I've been doing is paint by number (cause I have no talent and need the numbers!) Baking is another good one and you get to eat what you make. I find doing the dishes afterward almost therapeutic in its simplicity. The tv and computer time you mention sound reasonable if they aren't increasing your symptoms. Try not to watch loud, fast paced stimulating tv. Sounds like you have some plans in place! I hope you're having a good day. CC

I'm a 39 year old, female, accountant. On July 2, 2012 I crashed my bike at the end of a 65KM road ride. I was fine that day but woke up the next morning to my current world. Ongoing symptoms include: dizziness, blurred vision, light and noise sensitivities, cognitive problems, uncontrollable emotions/depression/anxiety, headaches (but they're getting better), mental and physical fatigue, difficulty communicating and sleep disturbances. Currently seeing a fabulous Neuro Psychologist and vestibular physiotherapist and hoping to soon see a neuro ophthalmologist. I am currently doing 20 minute stationary bike rides daily, 20 minutes of meditating, 15 minutes of Lumosity and lots of resting. I have not been able to work or drive since the accident. The things that have helped me the most since the accident are vestibular therapy, gel eye drops (for blurred vision, sensitivity and dryness), amitriptyline (10mg), and meditating. I am finally starting to see some slight improvements and am hopeful! My brain WANTS to heal itself... I just have to let it and stop trying to get better! |
