Depression and anxiety much better. Anger down 50% and anger fuse is longer. Others have noticed the improvement. Hope that helps you.

@@macck4350 for me it was reading the story of Mike Webster, who had been a hero of mine. It described a lot of things I was living with: unpredictable anger, depression, pulling away from social interaction, gaps in time amd the recognition that all the head trauma I had taken over years actually might have had a cost. Learning that how I felt was not normal, was not just getting older or being a loner. I didn't care if I lived or died but mostly I just didn't care nor trust much of anything or anybody except my dog. I still have a lot of symptoms although less often. I can still go from zero to unexplainable anger in a new york minute under the wrong stress. But when I eat right and supplement right its a lot better. Its not fixed but I feel more like it has put me back to where I was 10 or 15 years ago physically and mentally. Its bought me some time. But eventually, who knows? But sharing the info might help somebody else get a little more time and its all I could do. Hopefully it helps you a little, some, a lot Mac. But give it a try for a few months and see if it helps your situation. It helps to have a dog too. They sense your mood, try to support you, give you unconditional love and something to focus on and a reason to go onward. I don't recommend puppies or elderly dogs as puppies van be stressful and a dog that will die soon and what that death would do to you is not worth thinking about. Stay strong and try it.

It’s getting harder and harder everyday just trying to remember the littlest things. Playing football and always leading with my head gave me some of the worst feelings ever. And my dad wanting me to play was giving me a sense of pride and him actually spending time with me just in car rides to practices was a good feeling instead of staying out in a garage because he never gave me attention. And now I’m showing symptoms they think it’s me stressing out about COVID and not seeing my friends as often. But I don’t know if it’s psychosis or me smoking heavy at when I was in 7th and 8th grade. I don’t feel anything anymore just a confused and angst. The worst part about it seeing the hopelessness in my mom and family about what’s going on to me. I feel so alone

Using your head as a weapon was normal. If you have never played a contact sport or wrestled you wouldn't know, but if you control the opponents head you will control where their body goes as well. So when I would go to tackle (if not for the legs) I would aim the top of my head for the opponents face or chin. If you hit them good on that spot they would almost always go down. If you just started watching football in the last 7years then you would think what I am saying is so stupid(because it is). But if you look up old school football you will see that every collision is a control of heads. I am only 25, things change quickly

You kinda don’t know what’s happening in your head but all you feel is anxious and the urge to explode. The feeling equal to before you black out, this is why people who lose control go ape shit Bc you just want the pain in your head to go away. Sometime suicide is the result. You’re so used to bracing for hits (ex Oklahoma drill) Ik I pushed my mental state to the limit. Almost to the point where the only thing I had in my head was to run as hard as I can into the dudes even if it hurt him. So once your football life is over with, your mind feels like it’s lacking the rage outburst contact sports offer. You are unable to release your anger. Honestly football can make someone lose themselves. Pro level or not. Sucks you can’t really say shit about it tho. Everyone knows the risk but now everyone knows the side effects each risk has. I love football but it’s hurts more emotionally than physically in the long run.
