I agree. See if you can find a cognitive behavior therapist that deals with concussion/TBI patients. It has really helped me a lot.
You can always come here to vent. Even those who make bit by bit progress, still have days were we are blindsided by feeling off. Sorry you are struggling so much. This condition is something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy...
