Suggestions to make a concussion suck less?

[Vandole]

hit my head on sunday, started really bothering me yesterday. can't really do much without feeling extremely hungover and getting a little double vision. going to the doctor once they open from lunch... but... might as well get bg medical's advice while i'm waiting.

i'm pretty sure the doctor is gonna say "cant do shit, wait it out. take 2 tylenol and call me in the morning."

but fuck man, i have a 4 page paper due friday(assigned monday) and i cant even get through the book i neeed to cause of how annoying concentrating on reading sucks right now.

avoid bright lights, stay cool, take it easy.

Pop 1mg of Xanax, and relax in a dark room.
Works all the time.

Ask Mike Leach, he gives great concussion advice.

I was just in a similar boat, I had pinkeye a couple weeks ago through last week and I was falling behind the page expectations for my thesis work because I was light sensitive and couldn't concrentrate on a bright laptop screen or pages full of words. Just talk to your teacher/professor.

My advice beyond that:

Work in like 30 minute intervals. 30 minutes on, 30-60 minutes off, repeat.

Aspirin.

There isn't much you can do other than stay out of bright lights, stay hydrated and cool, and relax. If you have a legitimate conc., I'm pretty sure you can get a freakin extension on a paper.

Think of it as a slightly painful vacation and relax. Go camp Faf or something -- it'll relive the stress, heh. Oh, did I say relive? I meant relieve. Right.

Um, hold it right there chief, you can't say 'i have a concussion' and not tell us how you got it. That's not how this works.

[Klaatu]

Recreating the concussion scenario but in reverse should take the concussion out of your head and back where it came from.

[Mytiwar]

Mildly surprised nobody asked where/how you hit your head yet...?
