The acute phase is when you are continually symptomatic, like head aches, dizziness, mental fog, etc. One those symptoms subside, you can start working on strengthening your weak cognitive and memory skills.

Personally, I think a neuro-psych is a waste of time. They rarely teach you any skills that you can not learn on your own and for free. It is better to find a good local support system where you can meet people with similar struggles. The NeuroPsych Assessment will be expensive and not offer much for the money spent, especially if it is your own money.

Knowing your dysfunctions can be helpful but you still are early in the recovery process. If you are still struggling in another year, it might be worthwhile to get a NeuroPsych Assessment done. Hopefully, by then, you will be in better shape.

Keep your stress levels low and get good quiet rest and brain nutrition as as you said,

"My brain WANTS to heal itself... I just have to let it and stop trying to get better! "

My best to you.
