Yes, I will talk to him soon. I don't really have somebody to talk about that. My german mum is getting agressive when I am starting the topic and is even hanging up on me. My dad's english sucks lol but he is the worried one. Thanks or all the advise! I really appreciate it!

Lui, Maybe you can Skype with your parents and your doctor at school?

Lui I remember your early posts and you seem more anxious now than before. If you were to go home would you get as good as health care at home as you are here? Also IMO trying to push through this year really seems like it is putting too much strain on you. The added stress is only magnifying the anxiety. If you know a good pcp he/she can prescribe a medication to help. Only you can answer what the right thing to do here is. If it is too overwhelming talk to someone you trust.

Yes, I never realized but it's actually true. I am getting more and more anxious. I just don't wanna be the "loser-exchange student" who is breaking up the exchnage year because she can't handle some concussion symptomes. My health care in germany is way better then here.

If the health care is better at home then GO HOME!! And take ALL of us with you!!
![]() We could use some good health care! Just kidding! Listen I agree that you're the only one that knows if it will be better for you at home. You can't worry about what anyone else thinks. You only have one brain and one life and you have to live with your decisions. If you are enjoying your time here and want to push through and stay then do that. If you don't enjoy it here at.all and think you'll get better care, better rest and be happier at home then go home no matter what others think. The good news is..... we'll still be here to try to help you no matter where you are! ![]() As you've read in the other threads....worry is bad so try and think happy thoughts or do activities to distract you. Take care 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! |
