What do you know about CONCUSSIONS and Post Concussion Syndrome?
(These are some more symptoms--free floating anxiety, trouble concentrating, inertia that I'm experiencing, and it's been 9 months now.) HUGE car accident!
Answer:
Well, its not fair to say "its just in your mind" or that you are just imagining it all...Everyone is different and not everyones experiences are alike.. BUT I have been in 2 serious car wrecks and have suffered 4 concussions (2 very bad ones from the car accidents) and I will tell you that I only get headaches from time to time. Rarely, I notice that my coordination and balance is a little off... I never went to a neurologist, and I was never diagnosed with Post Concussion Syndrome and I'm feeling fine.
Your doctor could very well be wrong. But did you ever think it could post traumatic stress syndrome? I know its been 9 months, but memories from the accident might still be in the back of your mind more than you think. Since the 2nd accident, I get anxiety during car rides sometimes, out of nowhere. And sometimes I get depressed too. For a while, I felt like the 2nd accident ruined my life, thinking "if only it never happened". But really, I am fortunate that I lived through not 1, but 2 accidents where I very well could have died!
I hope this has helped. You'll be back on your feet soon, don't worry!
