hello everyone,

I'm a 28 year old student who just recently got a concussion (it's been about a month now) but things are not improving very much...still get headaches and I have problems concentrating, and especially lately I feel very depressed. Have a lot of other things going on in my life as well (not all positive) and having to deal with it all is too much at times.

I've been prescribed elavil for the migraines, I've only taken it for a few days but I'm not seeing a lot of improvement. I also feel really frustrated about not being able to exercise, and stressed out about all the things I need to do , which is not helping with the recovery. Before the concussion , one of my stress-busters was exercise, but now I can't make use of it, at least for a while.

When are things going to improve? I've been trying to stay positive but in the last few days I'm really feeling down. Any advice, words of wisdom or hope are greatly appreciated
