Read the vitamins sticky at the top. The injured brain needs more than simply good nutrition from food. It is very difficult to get the amount of B-12, D-3 folic acid, magnesium and such from diet alone.
Please feel free to introduce yourself and tell us how we can help you with your struggles.

Thanks for the response mark.
Im 20 years old and suffered between 3-5 concussions in a 6 month time period last year. Ever since, I have been struggling with symptoms related to pcs. Symptoms vary day to day, but overall I am not very functional. Brain fog, anxiety, low energy, occasional speech issues when overwhelmed, head sensitivity, etc.
Glad I found this website, its nice to see others that can actually understand what we deal with on a daily basis. One of the hardest things when I was at my worst and didnt know what was happening to me was that no one understood at all. Doctors told me it was only anxiety, which in turn made my parents start to not believe me. I have slowly gotten better as time has gone by, but am still left with symptoms that affect me daily.
