Just a disclaimer: try to avoid a concussion to the best of your ability. They truly are terrible and even "mild" or "minor" concussions can be nightmares and have consequences that reach far after the injury I'd "healed" or you are "recovered". If the actual complications due to the injury doesn't drive you crazy the resulting anxiety you're stuck with after will. I've had 2 within the past 8 months (never had one prior) and after my second one I've become obsessively afraid and anxious over the possibility of getting another one. It's fucking awful. 2024 has been the year from hell and it's ruined permanently what was starting to look like a super promising life. Tbh the concussive stuff is like 50% of what tore my life apart over the past several months enough to push me to being here. I just want to be dead and I wish the first hit to my head had been enough to kill me. It's far easier to get a concussion than a lot of people know or care to admit. I don't play sports or work construction or anything. I'm a book nerd and I'm here because I whacked my head in a doorway in the dark in December. So please God please please be careful and don't hurt yourself like I did. It's really lucky because relative to many other concussions mine probably was actually mild in comparison. I hope thos cautionary tale keeps y'all safe.
