45. Breaking Down Barriers with Jamie Martin - Concussion & Mental Health
Feelings of guilt amongst people with post concussion syndrome are very common; guilt around not participating in events, not being able to take care of their families, not being able to work, and so on.
Today on the podcast I’m joined by Jamie Martin, a concussion survivor who knows these guilty feelings all too well, and has some valuable advice to share around the importance of giving yourself grace, setting boundaries, and breaking down the barriers which prevent you from being honest about how you are feeling. Jamie was working full-time and studying when she began to struggle with post-concussion syndrome. In this episode she candidly shares the inner turmoil she experienced when her quality of life was drastically reduced post-concussion, including the suicidal thoughts which plagued her, and how she managed to work through these struggles and come out smiling on the other side!
