3 months out need help
 
Hey guys, this is my first time posting.

I'm 3 months out from a concussion and my main symptoms are screen and sunlight sensitivity. I've tried to slowly expose myself to screens, but now I've had a bad headache for the last 6 days and can't do anything. I'm doing all of this under the guidance of a concussion doctor. I'm also in physical therapy and am seeing a neuro-optometrist. I have no problems exercising and the optometrist is getting me prism glasses next week as I have convergence insufficiency up close.

I really need help as I'm losing hope. Light from screens just destroys me and sunlight is about as bad. I'm tying this on a DASUNG paperlike monitor which is the only thing I can use.

For now, I think I just need help with trying to get rid of the headaches so I can focus on more exposure therapy with at least sunlight. The headaches are located primarily in my temples. I'm gonna try some CBD cream later today. OTC meds do nothing. Exercise helps for a little bit.

I'm scared and losing hope. Please help.
