I think a lot of us here can relate. All I can say is that four months isn’t a lot of recovery time following a significant concussion. I’m at 11 months, and I still have a bunch of issues, but I’m way better and way more functional than I was at four months.

Are you doing any kind of physio? Have you been evaluated for vestibular or optical issues? Are you doing light exercise daily, per the Buffalo protocol?

Above all else, don’t work yourself up with worry about the future, as stress is counterproductive. This injury has taught me to live life one day at a time. If any given day is awful, I just tell myself that tomorrow might be better...

I do also recommend an anti-depressant like zoloft, because there’s evidence suggesting it might help with neurogenesis and neuroplasticty, and because it’s awfuly tough not to fall into depression when suffering through PCS.
