Default I've had alot of concussions

So I decided to do this because you all actually know whats going on with this stuff.
I'm the poster child for the "tough it out" school of concussion treatment.
My first concussion was in first grade when a bus stopped short and I hit my head. I spent a week in bed. For some reason my mom didn't bring me to a hospital.
A few years later I started playing football and wrestling. I was used to spending entire seasons with a headache by middle school and I never considered going to a doctor.
By middle school I was playing football, wrestling, and lacrosse, and I just expected concussions. It was just something that happened, and I never really told anyone other than to brag.
High school I continued to play all three, spent alot of time freshman year getting knocked around, got knocked unconscious at practice. That was the only time I ever took more than a day off, my coach told me to take the rest of the week off.

By now, I'm in college, I barely play contact sports but any time I hit my head even lightly that old ringing is back in my head.

Grand total of 7 concussions that caused me to puke and countless others that I just played through.


Now for the real stuff.
I have severe ADD which developed in elementary school. I am bordering on anti social personality disorder. I have intense fits of rage, have no long term memory, and any light tap to the head gives me a 2, 3 day headache.

I know I'm really going to have some problems down the road, I'm actually fairly sure this will kill me eventually... is there anything I can do now to get help?
Is there any advice, anything I can do?

Thank you
