Hope this helps, even though it sucks, it's kind of nice to know that I'm not the only one who does this.

I am sorry you are in so much pain and suffering. Unfortunately hitting your head as you do is a cause of traumatic brain injury and concussion. I am not sure what else you might do but you may want to seek other alternatives.
This may be of interest.
