Yeah. Medication should kick in fast. Usually within 15 to 20 minutes. You have to learn when to take the medication and it will work great. If you wait too long, it may not work so good. Your going to have to get to know that yourself.
Glad to help you! Hang tough.

Default Support!

I'm pretty much going through the same thing. The worst symptom for me though is headaches. REALLY bad ones. I'm suffering from post-concussion symptoms and nobody I'm friends with relate to me or can understand. It's sort of one of those things that you can't really understand unless you've been through it. What I need more than just recovering & rest is support and someone who gives a ****

I hear you loud and clear about the support. I hope your friends and family are better at giving you some then mine. I have not had any support only criticism from them in fact. That is why it is good to come here and speak to others who understand the situation. I guess it is one of those things that others cannot understand unless they have experienced it. They think you can just snap out of it or you are not trying hard enough or you are crazy etc. don't worry about it or let it upset you. You have support here. I am so sorry that you are going through this along with the rest of us.
