God Bless you. I know how you feel, when things overwhelm you and you feel trapped by life. You will be ok. Just keep telling yourself that. There's an answer to everything. By writing this to you, I'm working on the same thing. Have you tried alternative therapies? Read the book Brainlash by Gail Denton. It has a lot of good advice on how to cope with concussions. In it it speaks of Behavioral Optometry as a source of great healing for her. I'm sending you positive energy. If what you've been doing so far creates anxiety, change the way you look at it to see if the answer isn't hiding around the corner. I'm going to try the same thing and see how it works for my PCS which is 4 months in and full of depression. God bless you and I.
