I think you have nailed it on the head.
Never was a big writer, but thanks to people on here I started, and it's nice to get all this ***** out. Meditation has literally helped me stop a panic attack. My favorite: http://www.themeditationpodcast.com/episodes.html Use headphones. It's kind of trippy, but it's awesome. |

The subtle neck injuries common to concussion like symptoms do not usually cause pain other than headaches. They cause minor inflammation in the neck that can reduce vertebral artery blood flow. They can cause muscle spasms that cause headaches.
Headaches can cause anxiety that leads to other symptoms. Your binge drinking can leave your brain very susceptible to many kinds of disruptions. |

Not sure if this is relevant, but my thought patterns definitely change following overstimulation or too much activity... it's literally like a switch goes off. Once this happens, I'm darker and prone increased issues with frustration and anger.
Distraction and removal from a situation are my primary coping strategies, along with avoiding the triggering issue in the first place. Proactive tension reduction practices (mediation, deep breathing, etc) are supposed to be helpful, but are only minimally effective for me. Others, as posted earlier, seem to have more success with these. |

Hello,
I see this was posted a long time ago, I just have been searching the internet constantly for people who have been through the same stuff I have. After my car accident last year in august I have been experiencing everything in these posts, along with a period of psychosis that I got out of. I've never been to a psychiatrist until now as well. I haven't had another episode, and it's been 4 months. I have seen neurologists as well, yet the one I saw didn't seem to think it was post concussion syndrome, I even gave him all of my dr notes to review. I'm now waiting to see another neurologist that deals with concussions. I've had an MRI and CT that came back normal of course. I'm just hoping there's someone out there that can help out or even relate to what I have been through. Thank you! |
