A couple years ago I got a concussion. It was one ontop of another they think so it wound up being pretty bad. I acted like I was drunk all the time and did stupid stuff. Early on I had trouble remembering how to physically pee which was embarssing and painful (I had to pee but I'd stand at a urnial and not be able to expel it). My memory of the first few months were pretty hazy, and the headaches were the least of my worries, but everytime we got a symptom to go away a new one would pop up. When I came through I realized that I wasn't getting new symptoms but the old ones were so bad I didn't notice them until the worse ones went away. When I did start noticing the headaches after the punchiness and dizziness eased off they were so excruciating. And it was constant. I went about 18 months with a nonstop headache varrying degrees but for the most part it was high. As a guy who before hated taking tylonel and advil for anything I became dependent on them to survive the day waiting for the four hours just to take the next set of pills. At one point they even had me on some kind of prespricption pain killer which I was dying to get off of. They would tell me to rest and I would feel jolts in my eyes everytime I closed them. Now I'm doing way better physically. Before  I couldn't even write something this comprehensive on the computer. My balance isn't what it was but I don't have to lean on something to stand. My sensitivity is down. And my headaches aren't as constant, but they're still there and I've even gone a span of a week without one worth noting. But when I do get them they bite back like a bitch and I still go to rehab for them. I've gotten so used to them though in some areas of my brain I can pin point the pain. I can often feel my left optic nerve and I can feel it travel from the back of my eye through the inside of my brain and downward and I feel it either throbing, on fire, or the worst is almost like electric shocks typically accompanied by blood throbing next to my temple. I can function with them, they're too frequent to not function. I can't just not go to work or classes because of my head.  I decided to wait to take my second Chem class in the summer though because of the brutality of the smells from the last semester. I am so close to being done with this damn thing after two years I just need to get over this stupid hump. They say it won't last forever and I have hope in that I just wish it'd end sooner rather than later instead of spending my time searching the internet instead of doing homework for things about headaches or how to tell if your going to get demensia in the future never being satisfied with any answer. I guess I'm just here to really complain though because I don't feel like complaining to my parents or my friends because what can my friends do and my parents will try to do something even though they really can't. Honestly just wish this would pass I'm getting tired of it. The frustration and the blind walk into the future is worse than any pain that comes from my head.
