Do you remember last week how nice being at the Botanic Gardens was @outlander? Take yourself back there, to the smells, the beauty and serenity of nature.

The trauma is just agitating your condition @outlander,I know it's hard for you all the time let alone the trauma of the past day or so..Maybe draw, outlander if that is therapeutic to you,and post it on here,maybe a wombat hole with a sign" Outlanders' and old Lil1 hole!P*** Off!"lol🌸

@outlander Remember I said the first 24hours of concussion is the time when things could get worse? Hence their concern enough to keep you in and not give you meds. Now that time has passed, you need rest and sleep. So it's fine to sleep, fine to take your usual meds, fine to go gently for a while until you recover. Did the hospital give you an information sheet on head injury? I hope so.

A psychologist I know told me whenever you feel unsafe and anxious, it can help to take yourself back in time to a place where you felt safe and secure. Where there was beauty and peace. Where you felt like nothing bad could happen. It was hard at first for me to do,, but I can do sometimes when I am really overwhelmed and struggling. And so can you.

Get some rest @outlander. Put your headphones in and take yourself back to that majical place.

Oh yeah @Sans911
No i wasnt given a fact sheet. Told to take pain relief is pain gets bad again. Take things easily. That was it and if i get bad again to come back in. Im not like last night but everything does hurt.
Do u want to come with me to the gardens @Sans911 id love if you could come and escape some pain too

Take note of @Sans911, @outlander,maybe turn this technology off and rest the mind and the eyes,you need no stimulation to switch off.Its no different when I'm on a walk , listening to the radio,I turn it off because I need the silence and to enjoy the visual scenery ,this is a form of "switching off".You need to "switch off".As for driving tomorrow,it's like getting back in the saddle.You are lucky the accident was what it was.My accident years ago ,a wet day came around a corner,braked and rammed into a little car waiting to turn.I was fined neg driving,and the girl claimed insurance for her back.Learn from it,you will be traumatised and nervous for a while,but it does make you a better person.Lately,like yesterday I had a p plater overtaking me doing over 100,seen a red p plater doing over 100 a few weeks ago.Its a tough experience,but it makes you realize what can happen and how you can do better.
