Seeing a counselor/therapist is the best thing you can do to handle any of the emotional components that you are deficient in. I saw a therapist more frequently since the accident. At first I brushed it off thinking I was okay, but then the symptoms came about and I needed help to handle anxiety and irritability among other behaviors.

It will also put your mind at ease and they should give you the coping skills you need.
