An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.
Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.

I used to be a head banger as well. I was always told that you can't do any serious damage by head banging as your body will ensure you don't hit your head too hard, however I was being told this by the same staff who were medically neglectful and abusive, so who knows if it's true. I would say of course your head is going to hurt after that, but if you develop any vomiting, confusion, severe dizziness, new vision changes, or other signs of a concussion get yourself checked out. I never had any issues other than a killer headache but just be careful and if you notice any new symptoms go have a doctor look at you. When it doubt, get checked out.
As far as fighting the urge, is there anything that would be an okay replacement? Would you be able to hold ice, take a cold or hot shower, do intense exercise? I know they aren't the same but maybe you could attempt them for at least a minute or two? I'm sorry you're hurting.

If you keep doing that, the odds are that you will finish up with some degree of brain damage eventually.
Can you bang some other part of you onto the concrete?
Alternatively, have you tried alcohol to deal with the stress? That can put you on a dangerous road, of course, but if you don't need to do it very often then the risk might be acceptable.
