Thanks guitardude. my concussion happened 2 weeks before the summer so I had 3 months of rest. But after the school started I was sleep deprived most of the days. My professors did not work with me at all and I had to push through school. I avoided alcohol and any other drugs for the next three years. I would not run or do any sports that I thought might jerk my brain. I even walked slower than usual on campus. But the fasciculation never went away. I think the best thing to do is to accept that some of your symptoms would stay forever.But you can still do a lot despite those symptoms. I feel like focusing on my MCAT studying made me less depressed and my fasciculation actually was minimal during that time. So my advice would be to ignore your symptoms (but avoid anything that might cause another concussion or drugs) and focus on your goals. You can do it.
I have a headache today from the basketball hit but hopefully it goes away
