121. Take A Break From Therapy | Bella Paige - Living With Illness & Concussion

The Post Concussion Podcast - Life After A Brain Injury

Battling post concussion syndrome has been quite the journey, a winding road filled with challenges and triumphs. As someone who's been there, I, Bella Paige, want to share my experiences navigating the labyrinth of recovery - from managing therapies to assessing progress. Remember, sometimes the greatest therapy is just being 'you' for a while, stepping away from your patient persona, and appreciating your everyday self.
Living with post concussion syndrome is not just about managing symptoms, it's about understanding them and acknowledging the multilayered nature of this condition. Together, we'll delve into the complexities of PCS, discussing everything from light sensitivity to headaches, the struggles of maintaining a daily life, and the importance of setting realistic goals on your path to recovery. But remember, it's not a race, acceptance is key and assessing your progress is crucial.
Remember, you're not alone.
