I’m an 18-year-old high school senior.
This morning at 6:50 I woke up too quickly to go downstairs, I got too close to the first step, slipped onto my back, and slid down a flight of stairs; I got a rug burn on my elbow and hurt my tailbone. It’s not broken just sore, and there’s no bruising.
An hour after the incident, I took two ibuprofen tablets and went to school. And now I need advice on how to manage this because the only person I live with (SD) is at his girlfriend‘s house leaving me home alone until Sunday. (Some personal issues happened with him and he’s very overwhelmed and went to her house to calm himself down so that he’s not agitated the whole week.)
I have school for the next three days, and a bus picks me up every morning and brings me back home.
I can’t bend, and getting up from sitting takes forever.
Just need some advice on how to manage this for the whole week. I’m in pain and sensory-wise; overwhelming me and I can’t think clearly to organize my thoughts when I’m in pain.
