My own experience is that
mental fatigue/cognitive fatigue remains highly characteristic of pcs.
It is something ongoing we must work to be
proactive, to be
preventative, e.g. whenever we are
going and/or doing.
crystal mentioned, it is good to allow yourself '
safe' opportunities for being social, e.g. a TBI support group.
It's wise to be protective of yourself as well, e.g. your choosing to not go out with friends in a usual way.
Perhaps 1:1 easy walks together or such may be better.
You are young and that is on your side, re: making a good recovery.
I would highly recommend to your attention for brief, easy reading sessions,
Dr. Claudia Osborn's book
Over My Head.
Hoping all the best for you in your recovery, Safina.
