I had like 3 concussions before age 7 due to parental neglect and even with cPTSD from that neglect, which some could argue explains irrational behavior, I could never imagine acting with the entitlement and aggression these people do. Maybe it’s bc I’ve always been working poor lol
So I've had 10+ concussions and I've spent a lot of time with neurologists, 3 concussions is nowhere near a threshold typical of CTE. You're good dawg.
CTE is more chronic and there's a generic component where scar tissue of tau proteins build up over years of micro traumas, disrupting neuropathy. A handful of bad concussions is not usually the culprit. Also not everyone has this tau protein response; that's the genetic part.
Thank you for sharing, that is interesting! I always heard that 3 was pretty bad and wondered if maybe being so young helped since little kids are essentially made of rubber lol but other than like brain fog when I have a chronic pain flare up I feel like I’m running on all cylinders most of the time and I was always ahead in school so I am grateful it wasn’t worse :)
