Unhappy Homeophathy for very chronic PSC

Hi - I'm new to this forum and I'm wondering if anyone has heard of success in treating very long term post concussive syndrome homeopathically.

I fell and hit my head in 1998. I am 51 years old now. My initiatial symptoms were headache, nausea, confusion, blurry vision, irritability, zero decision-making ability, low, low energy and worst of all - depression. My depression is unlike what's typicial, it doesn't change from morning to night or from day to day. It's just there like a suffocating blanket on my life all of the time.

These are the things I've tried: basic cognitive-behavioural psychotherapy x 4 years, neurofeedback therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, acupuncture, osteopathy and chiropractic. Also excercise at the gym.

what's holding me together now is Effexor 225g and also 10 mg of Ritalin. I've been seeing a psychiatrist for that last 4 years, which made a big difference. She really helped me find my confidence again after doubting my abilities for so long. The Effexor removed the depression but also flattened my experience of feeling so that I can't feel the extremes - i.e. joy or despair. I don't feel the "lights" that go off in your mind when you read something beautiful. Actually, my reading is still turtle slow and I get easily confused. Working from home helps to control my environment/distractions etc.

I still don't feel like my real self. I was about to embark on a creative writing career when this happened but the fall wiped out the urge to create. Dead, just like that. Other people , even my husband and adult children don't see the difference. I guess it is too subtle. But to me the poetry of my left over 10 years ago and I can't help but try to get it back.

So, again, my desperate question is - have you heard of any success stories with homoeopathy.... thanks!
