Hello and welcome
Hi there
So sorry to hear of your struggles. There is a forum just for PCS and mTbis and you can find it here at NeuroTalk.
I am glad to hear you have a vitamin regimin going. You can find a stickie all about vitamins and good nutrition to help your brain heal.
The brain fog or depesonalization you spoke of is something many of have felt at one time or another.
The break up of a relationship is surely stressful. The injured brain can't handle stress and so stress makes the symptoms worse.
I hope you are able to rest your brain. By doing this, avoiding or limiting screens especially TV, video games, etc.
Anyhow, PCS is a journey and your brain can heal. I just wanted to offer some words of hope.
Sincerely,
Poetrymom

[SIZE="1"]What happened. I was in a car accident 2-23-2013, and got a mild concussion from it. I had some time off for brain rest, got somewhat better, but slipped into PCS in March 2013.
Symptoms I had: dizziness, light and sound sensitivity, fatigue, tinitis, occasional headaches and migraines,
Symptoms as of 5--2013: poor sleep, tinitis, some confusion /short term memory blanks, balance. The other symptoms are mostly gone, but flare up if I OVERdo something.
Therapy I had: vestibular
3 months in: I could drive more and for longer distances. I felt like a younger, happier version of myself and I feel so blessed to have this feeling.
9 months in and I am working full time. I do get tired, and some sound and light sensitivity from time to time, but mostly I am over most of my symptoms.
I pray every day and I m praying for your recovery.
Over a year in: I can multi task (limited) and have humor in my life. But when I am tired, I am very tired.
