Symptoms of a concussion can often go unnoticed at the time of injury. From Melissa\\u2019s experience, she states, \\u201cI didn\\u2019t think it was that bad. It was something that I thought would just go away.\\u201d Melissa was unable to receive appropriate medical management of her concussion leading to greater harm to her psychology. She states, \\u201cThat was hard for me to look in the mirror and not see anything\\u2026 There was a disconnect.\\u201d

One of the turning points of Melissa\\u2019s journey was when she was able to express herself freely and feel as though she was in a safe environment. With the help of her physical therapist, Melissa found that, \\u201cThere was actually a chance after this that maybe I could heal\\u2026 She understood what I was going through\\u2026 She really listened to what was going on.\\u201d For concussion management, Melissa advises all medical providers to, \\u201cReally slow down and listen because a lot of times the processing of the person with a concussion is slower than it was prior to\\u2026 Really taking the time and believe them. Believe what they\\u2019re saying.\\u201d

Melissa\\u2019s life path was altered following her injury in a direction that has led her to pursue her passions. Despite the hardships, she remarks, \\u201cHaving this concussion was a wakeup call from the universe.\\u201d
