sounds like he hit going back inside the car for his stuff - probably a good zinger and a sore spot on the top of his head, and a jolt and pain from the actual hit..

I recall many in the past here have mentioned needing to slow down and be more aware of head & surroundings , just to avoid this happening..
I really learn my lessons the hard way

Def gna be more careful going forward.

Just a quick update - day 4 started with me being able to handle youtube videos. I don't believe I have ever laughed this hard by myself before at Jimmy Kimmel's jokes.

But, I didn't get a great night of sleep (mice), woke up after 4 hours and had intermittent sleep after that. But, now am unable to handle videos though typing has gotten better, I haven't made too many typos while writing this that I had to go back and correct.

I don't necessarily think this needs a response, though I absolutely welcome one. Just updating for anyone who might in the future encounter a similar reinjury and states of panic/anxiety like my last 4 days. I could be wrong but I think I have improved slightly over the last four days. Just going to continue to be patient.

Great health to all of you.

As we have said, improvement is measure every few weeks. If you are focused on short term changes, you will struggle to get free of the anxiety.

Deal with the mice and get some sleep.

For me, our improvements in our recovery processes will vary a great deal on location(s) of the brain hit, any prior tbi, any other health or medical problems, how your brain was wires beforehand (IE strengths and weaknesses and learning and thinking styles), level and types of support, any therapy, and how all you end up helping and hindering your own recovery.

Yes hindering is I don't there cause we all have our lazy, blonde, idiot moments or ones caused directly or indirectly by others accidentally. For example, I have learned to close locker doors above mine at the gym, since I won't think a thing about it being possibly open even the least bit and stood up with the result being a minor head ouchie.

Besides a tbi can mean a "new life" or so it seems.
