Default frustrated w/ PCS

I was in a car accident in mid October and sustained a concussion. Don't really remember much at all about that day, and I've lost months of memory prior to the accident.

Very frustrated right now with my recovery. I feel mostly normal on most days, but I still have trouble concentrating, daily headaches of varying severity, extreme sound sensitivity and insomnia. And I'm not doing as well in school as I normally do. Studying the same amount like normal, though I do get severe headaches when I study.

Just bloody want my life back to normal! I have stuff I want and need to do, and I get extremely frustrated when there are obstacles in my way.

I saw my doctor again about a month ago, and he thinks I definitely have PCS. His suggestion was to keep trying to do things like normal, and eventually it should get better.

I'm usually an A student, and the last 2 exams I had were 88 and 86. Am so angry about that, since I put in the same hard work I always do but I'm not getting the same results.

Is there anything I can do to heal faster?
