Four years into #PostConcussion, completely alone on my journey, I find out about:

β€’ Aphantasia
β€’ Breathing difficulties

#NoWonder I have exercise intolerance, pressure issues, dizziness and headaches if I am not breathing properly!

#NoWonder I have frickin anxiety, if I felt like I was going to drop dead at any second!!

How is this impacting me subconsciously?? Image
How is πŸ‘† stunting my recovery? @NHSCTrust

I was able to visualise before I hit my head but I still dream vividly πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

I believe it impacts my ability to create memories and recall them, and has somehow affected my ability to move and my muscle memory.

What will I discover next? πŸ™„

I already 'belly breathe'...

At least I can research and hopefully figure out a way to somehow 'fix' myself.

Wee bit of a headache, was able to do some mindfulness this morning got through the most I've done since this started.

Recalled the Doors with a little stumble.

I am tired. Heaviness like behind my eyes, different than what it's been. Don't want to be here today.
Tongue is back to being swollen, I'm a bit slow on the uptake today. Memory game - got more of the fours right, none of the six.

Tingling in my left foot today, right side of neck gradually getting sore as the day goes on.

Whatever way I tracked ... as he walked past, got pain
in my right eye, focusing too hard?

Headlights and driving home was difficult, it was misley rain and I couldn't really see past the rain.

Forking memory game drives me nuts 😡 ooooo my neck cracked when I looked left at 19.31 could that be it? Still aches. Sneezing hurts head

πŸ“’ 4yr Acc-iversary πŸ“’πŸ§ πŸ€•

I love movement! About 6 years ago πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ I fell in love with @CrossFit methodology.

I decided that as well as working at MacBlair, I wanted to be a CrossFit coach. Weekend of 10/11 of Nov β€˜18, I was attending a CrossFit Level 1 course in Image
Manchester, to get my coaching qualification (I still passed the course).

It is difficult for me to explain my accident; if you know gym racks πŸ˜† I sustained a concussion and whiplash when I accidently initiated a movement with my legs instead of my shoulders and drove my
head into a three-bar pull up rack (wasn’t a dirty south bar).

The picture πŸ‘† was about five hours after I did it. Not bad eh?!

πŸ‘‡ is why @CrossFit should have stopped me from continuing with the course but that is a whole other part of my story.
