A lot of people don’t know a lot about concussions. They think, “Oh you’ll be fine in about a week” I mean maybe you will be but probably not. Concussions aren’t fun and post-concussive syndrome or post-concussion syndrome (PCS) definitely isn’t either. Not everyone who gets a concussion…

Here are a couple of symptoms I’d like to clarify on this:

• Moving headache — it changes where it is in your head every day.
• Anxiety — you can’t change the situation you’re in and it terrifies you to the point of having an anxiety attack. Or a varaition on this theme.
• Mood swings — they can be drastic and sudden. Going from happy to pissed for no reason at all.
• Difficulty concentrating — spelling or typing is now a nightmare. And that awesome memory recall you had for that movie with that guy and that other guy? It’s been slowed down for you.

Definitely agree on everything
