Every brain injury is different. Some heal spontaneously and quickly. Others drag on and on, and the person never seems to get back to quite the way they were before the injury.

Unfortunately, there is no way to predict when you will be "recovered," or exactly what "recovery" will look like for you.

That said, typical timelines for quicker recovery often include one month, three months, and six months. The more things you can do to help your brain heal, the quicker and more complete your recovery is likely to be.
