I've had a lot of concussions as well. Actually, I'm pretty sure I don't even know. We only really deemed them concussions if you blacked out. And I did that a lot. I've lost weeks of memory and my life to them. I have no idea how many 'lesser' concussions I've had, likely in the hundreds to low thousands. One thing I've not seen discussed here is the emotional side of recovery. I pretty much was manic-depressive. I would have just the highest highs. I've never felt better in my life before or since. Just felt like everything was great and that the world was amazing. And then I would have the lowest lows. Suicidal ideation, couldn't get out of bed, loosing friends, unfortunately typical stuff. I'd laugh at really weird things, I'd get angry at normal stuff. My brain was making me crazy and it took a toll of myself and those around me. I'm better now, but it took years of healing and mostly bumbling along. Sure, yeah, I had (and still do) problems with memory, vision, and hearing. But for me, it was the emotional stuff that was most surprising. I don't tend to see a lot of that in anecdotes and research. I know that I'm likely going to end up with dementia or something worse. I know I'm going to loose my marbles. And I'm still trying to make peace with that. I don't know if I ever really will. Any tips here would be appreciated. If anyone else with a lot of concussions wants to chime in on their experiences, I'm happy to chat here. Sorry, this comment is kinda strange.
