Default Reaching out

Hello there.

I'm reaching out here. I am still recovering from my most recent concussion (october, 2014). I have had two prior concussions to this one that were back to back... as in one on one day, and the next day another. All work related injuries.

Since this most recent injury I started a new job, was diagnosed with PTSD, and more. At first it seemed like I coped okay, but more recently I cant remember anything. I can't find words. Forget how things work. Forget where I am going. Sometimes I forget where I am or who I am. Depression/anxiety/insomnia/lethargy/dizziness/headaches/and much more. Those are what I live with on a daily basis.

I was seen at a occ health clinic and other than my sprained neck, broken nose, and swollen eye/broken glasses the Dr said to rest and it would take time.

Well, I got worse. So, I went back and then had to fight for any worker comp to pay for it. I fought for months. Got an MRI. I go see a physiatrist tuesday (tomorrow... wow! close!) and am nervous. I am hoping to get some info here. What will happen? I can't find anything online to help calm my anxieties. Any experiences anyone can share? Help?
