It has been just over three months and I feel as if some days I am better, and some days I am getting worse. After taking a cross check, my neck snapped back and I knew it was another concussion. I have been resting as much as possible, and the neurologist I saw three weeks ago told me that I could start doing Physical Therapy. He thinks the hit may have caused a neck injury, as I feel headaches in the back of my head. I started taking 25mg of Zoloft 6 weeks ago, and it has not worked. I am no taking 15mg rendering to help calm my anxiety. What does everyone think of medicine and the road to recovery? I have never been obsessed with taking drugs, but I am feeling pretty desperate right now and it really scares me.

Also, my neurologist mentioned that my anxiety and stress could cause more tension headaches. Does everyone agree with this? Please let me know, and God bless!
