Thanks again Mark!!!

I will try to relax and the things that were bothering me such as the depression and aniexty and the loss of appetite you and other have helped me assure that it's normal and my head is recovering and I have to rest.... Thank you!!!!!!

Yes,, its all part of it. The key in the early stages is lots of rest and non stimulating things.

It gets very boring, but its a huge part. Luckily you have age and not a large buildup of other concussions.

Just relax, take some deep breaths and all should turn out great for you.

Ps: i like your d12 picture in your profile.

Thanks kev!!

Ur right it is very boring!

P.s it's BAD MEETS EVIL in my picture not D12 but close lol

Ahhh yes. Very good.

jsyk,

I don't think that kind of audio stimulation is conducive to recovery. Too much angst and attitude.

Agreed with that as well. To much simulation going on.

I only really listen to old country music now a days. Nice and slow, and at low volumes.

I had the shower radio on the other day and the only station that would come in through the storms we were having was a local hip hop station. Granted, I like all kinds of music, but wow, way to fast and to much background noise as well. It was quickly turned off.

Also, Shady, be aware that video games are not good at all for your recovery. I myself used to be an avid video gamer, but in my new world, it just doesnt happen. Be cautious if you play games.

Well I only like Rap music and I haven't been listening to it lately because I useally use ear buds and I was told not too

Kev,

I lost interest In video games a long time ago... So I'm not Eagar to get back to it... Not saying I complety cut out video games before my concussion but I didnt get a new game for a while and you get bored with playing the same games over and over

The sensory stimulation from Rap music is definitely not good for recovery.

Not at all? Like can I listen to any music I also like an artist skylar grey(pop/rock artist) I know not earbuds but like can I listen to it in the radio

Shady, for the time being I wouldnt listen to anything with a fast beat or fast lyrics.

Its amazing how something as simple as music can deeply fatigue your brain, especially at your stage of injury where rest and shutting down your brain is key to recovery.
