peirre93,

Anti-depressants do not cure any PCS symptoms. Often, they are prescribed to help with the anxiety, insomnia, and head aches. Amitriptyline and nortriptyline the most common to be prescribed for PCS head aches and insomnia, but in a low dose.
What antidepressant did he prescribe ?
Keep in mind that you are still very early in your recovery. By standard definition of PCS, you do not qualify yet. PCS is usually a term for concussion symptoms that persist beyond 6 weeks or so. You still stand a good chance of a spontaneous recovery in the next few weeks. The most important thing for you is to keep your stress and anxiety levels low. Failing to reduce stress and anxiety can cause a recovery to take much longer.
My best to you.
