Depression / Anxiety and PCS is not a good mix.

I have this problem, It has to be a little harder than that for me to cause symptoms, but the symptoms linger for weeks. I think the problem is is that the brain defense mechanism is hyperactivatrd (and there may still be some lingering minor damage left) and the brain's inflammation processes are triggered. I am experimenting with exogenous ketones which have decreased inflammation somewhat and dhea (jury is still out) ,and fish oil which has also decreased inflammation.
