oh sweet sweet kathryn. I am glad you are staying away because the politics are affecting you. Just know that after the election know that we are here.
There is no doubt in my mind that your concussion is making it really difficult for you. As you know dd younger has had 5 concussions, 4 bad ones. Your brain needs time to heal it can take 6 months to a year when they are bad and watching or listening to news like that pod cast can send your already hurt brain into overdrive. I really believe you need to speak to your neurologist re what is happening.
They probably will do a blood tests and a ct. scan - insist on cat scan if they haven't . I think it is really really important. Dd younger needed this on number 3 and 4.
Call your doctor tomorrow. and tell him about the intensity of what is going on. It really worries me - I have seen it with dd It sounds like your adrenaline is way off as well. The brain is a complex. If this hadn't happened with dd younger I wouldn't have known about this. The intensity is something I have seen and dd need a neurologist to help her and lots of quiet away from any stress.
Tell your dd the truth about you brain and the intensity of your feelings with out blame or wanting her to change. Tell her you are more sensitive and for her to be patient with you as you will be with her. You don't want to push her about a car but you can honestly tell her that you are very vulnerable to hurt feelings since your concussion. Her hormones are up there. you can say no to so much babysitting . she will find a way

Also are you on any new meds in the last year. I don't know if you remember when my even tempered dd younger was put on a couple different meds and she became suicidal. May o Clinic were fast to take her off of them (gradually of course). What a difference. I am praying for you! Peace to your heart and mind.
Hoping your dd feels great through the rest of her pregnancy! praying for a nice healthy mama and baby.
and that she finds drivers or taxi's she can use. It's more than okay to say no especially if you are feeling that they are over asking - no is really important right now. (((to you ))))
I had no idea that volunteers had to pay for travel and pay for the opportunity. Praying he gets his travel spending again.
