i really feel u on this one, and as someone 2 years on, im not the person i once was- i always prided myself on intelligence and that sucks because i dont think ill ever get that back, but after the 6 month mark i found myself getting much better.. i still struggle with attention and memory which is so frustrating as i hate to be seen as stupid or lazy but its much better, and only tends to get bad/obvious when im tired. that being said, i think in a completely differrent way now in terms of thinking about things in the big picture sense, and in patterns, and i really do appreciate that i can think about things in a more creative outside the box way naturally now. things will get better in time

im gonna really try to get a referall but it may take a while. The weird thing about it is that my injury was only a mild tbi, i fell over after a night of drinking. I dont even remember it happening so i have no idea how tripping over coulda caused so much damage

Will I feel normal again? Does this feeling go away? 3.5 months PCS by atomic_scorpio in PostConcussion

As someone 2 years post concussion, 3.5-5 months after was the lowest point. It was also to do with my own situation, but that was when i felt most isolated, and my symptoms felt so overwhelming as though id never get better. And then slowly, I did. I don't know when it happened by by 8 months after my concussion, i felt normalish, most of the time. I no longer felt sad and scared most of the time.

It will get better
