  1. So, now is the time for you to rest, relax, and be more patient to heal. Also, put on the safety belt next time. You were not like me. I got into a pedestrian accident. The pedestrian was me, a motorcyclist came, hooked me and dragged me a few metres before falling (due to my weight) I can tell you, the abrasion on most parts of my body was so intense that I screamed so loud (high-pitch) due to pain! But after a few days' rest, I was feeling much better...


  2. OO sorry about the here that . I know how feel like.

    Take a break couple days get some relax.

    I had 17 broken bones so i had relax more then couple days.

  3. yes, a few times.

  4. yessssssssssssss.

  5. I'm glad you are ok. The experience you are describing is very common. Alot of people who are involved in injury accidents often don't remember anything. This is actually a survival mechanism of the brain, the mind's way of protecting itself from re-experiencing the disturbing details of trauma. Some people slowly regain the details over time; others do not. Don't ruminate about it, just take it as a learning experience and second chance at life. If you find yourself dwelling on it too much, or having nightmares, seek counseling.

  6. Congratulation, take care in future to use an organised transporter lines

  7. sounds like your equilibrium was rocked, just like when boxers get ko'd they dont recall hitting the ground, but back to your case it was a little more long term because of the trauma so close to   your equilibrium, you'll be alright just chill and enjoy the meds

  8. More than likely you have a traumatic brain injury. When jolted suddenly and violently your brain moves around in your skull. It is very typical for someone to not recall the events clearly. Your body goes into immediate shock and instead of focusing on your senses and memory it focuses on repairing your body. The hospital would have done scans to confirm there was no permanent damage. If there were any significant complications they would take care of it immediately. Time is of the essence. Make sure you pay attention to your vision. Sometimes doctor's skip over that if you are focusing properly even though you might have cloudy vision. Normally it is temporary but if it last through the next day visit a doctor immediately. So sorry to hear about your accident. I had one similar a few years back. Just know that tomorrow will hurt a lot more than today. It will all come out when you wake up in the morning. Right now your body is numbing the pain. Your muscles tense when in an accident and will be tight for several days.  Lots of bed rest and muscle relaxers. Good luck.

  9. The human body protects itself by "turning off" temporarily......Very common.

    Seatbelts will keep you in place.  Without a seatbelt, there are 3 collisions.......That vehicle, your body then your internal organs.....

    The car crashes first, but since you are in motion WITH the car, as the car suddenly stops on impact or changes direction on impact, your body continues a straight line path into the interior of the car AT the speed of travel......if you were doing 70MPH, you are hitting the interior of the car at 70MPH

    Then, the third collision.........just like you were in motion with the vehicle, your internal organs are also in motion with your body.......now, your internal organs also impact your ribcage and each other @ 70MPH.  This is where most injuries which are life threatening, occur.

    Airbags bring in a different threat......as you travel to impact the vehicle interior, the airbags deploy and now instead of heading straight into the car's interior with your body, you are now forced down or up because the airbag is blocking your route.......this is where distortion injuries (broken bones, broken backs and necks) occur.  

    Word of advice.....regardless of how uncomfortable or uncool a seatbelt is.......it will save your life in 90-99% of the accidents.  The biggest function is keeping you in the vehicle should your car roll over or suddenly change direction on impact.....you will not be ejected in 99% of the cases.
