Default post-concussive psychiatric problems

I've had cumulative concussions (through soccer) and have been dealing with PCS for almost a year. I'm 20 and have always been a happy kid with no previous psychiatric problems.

I have struggled with extreme suicidal depression almost immediately after my concussion and also anxiety and panic attacks. Depersonalization is also a problem from time to time, especially when I am really fatigued and disoriented. Lately I feel as if I'm not even in my body and I have no control over what I am doing. I have been extremely impulsive and also doing things that are self-destructive.

I'm seeing great sports concussion neurologists/neuropsychiatrists. I have other symptoms but these are the ones that are the toughest to deal with. Just wanted to see if anyone has similar struggles...
