Default feeling discouraged about recovery

At the beginning of June I sustained a concussion. I had 2 weeks off work and went back for 3 shifts last week. I have a week's holiday this week that I booked a while ago so I thought it would be a nice window to test how I'm getting on knowing I had this week to rest. I also can't live off sick pay and finances have been really stressing me out.

I have been getting really bad headaches again and disturbing thoughts. I am also still having problems with my vision. I feel very detached from myself and like I'm completely in la la land, I don't know whether I've been home alone for a while with no social interaction has made me this way. Due to my depression I don't have the motivation to gently exercise or even go outside for a walk in the sunshine.

Just how long will my post-concussion syndrome linger
