Hello everybody,

Can't edit my signature for some reason, but here is my concussion history:
2002 - hit my head on a washer door while doing laundry. Recovered in 24 hours (was 7 months pregnant at that time)
2005 (maybe 2006) - kitchen cabinet (it took me ~ 1 week to recover)
2009 - refrigerator shelf, recovered in 1 month
summer, 2011 - metal rail, the life-changing concussion. Black out for ~10 minutes, spent ~2weeks in bed (wasn't able to even use a bathroom by myself). Made a complete recovery in 2 months.
October, 2011 - washer door again. Recovered in 1 months.
March, 2012 - kitchen cabinet again. Suicidal depression. Was diagnosed with OCD. Severe anxiety. Was completely recovered in 4 months, celexa is a magical pill.

After that I managed to go almost 1.5 years without a concussion! Was at a completely symptom-free stage, started volunteering at my kids' school again. I was living a happy life. Then,

August, 2013 - fell down the stairs, broke my ankle badly (my surgeon said that he literally has never seen anything that bad ever before and he's been practicing for more than 20 years).
September, 2013 - my son was hugging me and we bumped into each other. Result - complete return of all of my symptoms., no improvement with time. Severe depression again.

Yesterday - hit my self on a metal shelf again while trying to clean. Definitely feel worse today.

I stay at home all the time. I still can drive, but quiet, low-traffic streets only. Absolutely no changing lanes. No TV, no computer(i'm struggling typing this), no over stimulation of any kind. I'm very slow everywhere(physically and mentally). And I'm still limping (it's something that will stay). I'm only 35 years old and I feel like 90. This will never stop, will it?
