40. People think I am healed because they only see me at my "best moments", not during my "bad days" 02.08.2022

During my concussion recovery, I had a lot of bad days when my concussion symptoms were the worst. During those bad days, I just needed to be home to get as much rest I as needed.

So, when I was outside the house, people saw me at my best, and they supposed that I must have been healed or...

19. How I Improved My Sleep Habits - Sleep issues after a concussion 18.04.2022

Since the moment I got my concussion, my sleep has changed. I had a hard time falling asleep; I woke up many times during the night, and it felt like my brain was always awake.

It didn’t feel like that was the right way and within the next year, I learned a lot about how I could improve my sleep natu...
