Do concussions make u act unusually? I fell and hit my head out the hot tub last night and then I stayed up and unfollowed 480 of the 610 people I followed on IG. I’ve never done anything remotely like that and I can’t believe I did it just now

If you think you have a concussion do NOT go to sleep. Go to the doctor immediately

Concussions can cause confusion/drowsiness, so yeah u might act differently, get lots of rest, dont strain ur eyes and ur mind too much, get off blue light devices for a minute, also def check in w a doctor

It happened at like 10pm I went inside, showered, then slept from like 10:30-1:30 then I’ve been up since and it’s like 8am now

They used to say this to me every time i got concussed but recently they changed it, ive had first aid training within the last year and its somewhat recent but they say sleeping after has a very low likelihood of causing more damage so now they recommend it

You still shouldn’t unmonitored without seeing a doctor. It’s only safe if you’re stable. Considering OP wasn’t, and thinks they have an altered mental state/doing things they normally wouldn’t do, they need to see a doctor

Depends on the severity of symptoms but yes they should go see a doctor anyways but considering they alr slept theres nothing they can do abt it, just wanted to inform that it likely didnt cause more damage!
