Thank you so much for the lovely and helpful reply!

I will look into vestibular therapy, as my balance has decreased, and my initial injury came with severe vertigo for weeks due to the injury to my ear.

I will most definitely look into seeing a physiatrist! That hasn't been recommended to me before, but sounds like a perfect option.

We are always looking for a good nuerologist or headache specialist, but have had little to no luck... I'm a youth, and we've even tried multiple children's hospitals... We are thinking or going to a college with a medical program if we cant find any other options. Is there any trick to finding a good one? Or is it simply up to going to as many as you can until you find one you like?

Hadn't thought of a cervical chiropractor yet, that's a good idea! The chiropractor I'm seeing is a sports rehabilitator/chiro who worked for the Olympic team in the past. He also has a soft tissue massage therapist who works gently on my neck.

I will definitely look at the Vitamin Sticky! Is it best to run all vitamins past your primary doctor first?

My memory loss mainly includes only remembering bits and pieces of the accident and hospital trip itself, and forgetting very simple and important words. When I do remember things from the accident, they come in flashbacks that feel extremely real, suffocating, and terrifying. They always cause panic attacks and then I wish I didn't remember. The words I tend to forget are so simple its frustrating! I have a large vocabulary, as I read a lot, and yet, I forget words like "very", "repeat", "room", etc. Yet, I can remember hard terms in biology just fine.

The emotional struggles have been the most prominent lately, and I am seeing a psychiatrist who has given me a prescription that has helped me a lot day to day. I had depression and anxiety before the accident, and it got worse afterwards, which was to be expected. I am working on reducing stress in my life, but didn't know that PCS makes you more sensitive to it. That explains a lot!

My sleep is either really good or really bad. I'm definitely trying to work on it. I use a white noise machine, light essential oils, etc. when I cant sleep.

Right now, I'm kind of new to supplements, but definitely not apposed to them. I've seen what they can do or horses, so I'm interested in them for me. I'm currently taking fish oil supplements, vitamin D (blood work showed I was lacking it, most likely due to my pale skin and lactose intolerance), and a multivitamin. I also occasionally take Arnica Montana for pain. I'm open to any suggestions for supplements!

So far, I'm not easily overwhelmed by the essential oils, but I use carrier oils, and use them sparingly.

Before my accident, I was taking aleve, Tylenol, and motrin on almost a daily basis. After the accident, my most recent nuerologist had me stop taking them cold turkey. He said my headaches might be a result of the medications. I really had no impovment after I stopped taking them. I take them on occasion now.

I showed all-around in 4-H, open shows for western pleasure, western eq., English pleasure, English eq, hunter hack, trail on occasion, horsemanship, and showmanship. He was an all-around show horse I finished myself. He came out of the accident un-scathed, but the vet deemed him unfit for riding with a nuerological issue. His flight response is way to strong, on a dangerous level. So, even though he wasn't hurt or killed, I lost riding, I lost my connection with him, I lost my escape, and I lost what was once my best friend. It takes a lot to put all of your trust in a thousand pound animal, and it was shattered, along with all of the hard work I put into him, in an instant. So I'm still recovering from that.

I truly appreciate everything you've said and suggested. Just knowing people understand what I'm going through makes me feel less alone. Thank you so much for everything, you have no idea how much this means to me.
