Listen Later

Have you ever wondered what it’s really like for your loved one who’s struggling with persistent concussion symptoms?

 

Supporting someone on a healing journey from a concussion can be overwhelming, especially when you’re trying to understand what they’re going through. Maybe you’ve found yourself frustrated, trying to relate or make sense of changes in your loved one’s energy, routines, and capabilities. It’s tough to watch them go through this—and at times, you may even wonder if there's something more you could do to help.

 

In this episode, we’ll dive into why life looks so different for someone healing from a concussion, from navigating mental fatigue to managing energy like a depleted battery. We’ll also explore ways to communicate and show support without comparing or assuming—and why this can make a world of difference for both you and your loved one.

 

In this episode, you’ll learn:

👉 Why simple tasks can now feel incredibly draining for your loved one

👉 How neurofatigue and energy depletion impact daily activities

👉 Practical ways to communicate and show support without comparisons

👉 Tips for creating safe, open spaces for your loved one’s needs to be met

 

Understanding these nuances is key to navigating the shifts in your relationship. Whether you’re a partner, spouse, parent, or friend, this episode is for anyone who wants to truly support someone on their healing journey.
