Hi Abbillee and welcome,

I'm sure everyone here relates to what you're experiencing, I know it can get really depressing, as Hockey says, depression is a symptom too.

I saw a neurologist who said I'm either having a lot of symptoms from the concussion, including some kind of seizures, or....it's because I'm depressed!!!

Nope! I wasn't depressed before the accident!

Hockey has great advice, I am going for the neuro-psych exam so hope you go for one too.

VERY, very important, don't try to do too much, rest, eat well, do not over do it, I couldn't read or walk properly after the concussion, it takes time.

For me, the "mental" stuff has been so difficult, I feel brain damaged and think I'll never be the same, having a lot of problems and then other new things are popping up.

Look around on this forum, people understand what you're going through, it can help to know you're not alone.

Hang in there Abbillee, really look after yourself, others will be along to help you. hugs....
