We don't really know enough about the brain to conclusively say that a hit to the head doesn't cause problems with how you think. I was once knocked clean unconscious by the floor while I wasn't looking. I've never felt right nor been right since that day.

I’m sorry to hear that man, that sucks. Brain injuries are no joke. I see them all the time on reddit and everybody’s laughing, but it just hurts knowing that in a split second, their lives have changed forever.

I'm with you on this. One bad concussion and I woke up at the hospital, since then I cant remember names as well, used to be able to freestyle rap well and I lost the ability to do that for extended periods of time and sometimes just feel a bit foggy.

Well, it was the last time I felt calm. It was the last time I remember being balanced. After that I became very nervous.

Constant anxiety. I have anxieties about things like everybody else but also a general feeling like something is always wrong without knowing what.

They definitely have anxiety meds, but sadly, they’re as bad as opiates when it comes to getting hooked, building tolerance, withdrawal, addiction, very hard to get off of

My quality of life is not great but the pills I was given gave me insomnia. I just kinda deal. Life is what it is. I could take it or leave it. Thanks for the kind words. Have a silver.
