Hi Windseeker,

I'm so sorry for your struggles. I notice a lot of us pcs'ers seem to have anxiety that is kicked up into high gear after a concussion. That anxiety can make me seem short with people, or argumentative. What it really is for me (and maybe you with your family) is a feeling of being completely overwhelmed. It makes us edgy...any kind of stress is not good for us.

The way you're Feeling is not good for your PCS, but it is difficult Not to feel discouraged at times. I sure have my days! I am on Effexor (an anti depressant). And with the way you're feeling I Definitely recommend you go and see a doctor about something to help elevate your mood, and if you're already taking something, it may need to be modified or increased.

I know that it is probably difficult at this point to put in the effort to take this step, but you Need to start feeling better, and that starts with your sleep quality and something to enhance your mood.

We are all there with you. Xo
