Default New to thread, 6 Weeks in Concussion..PCS?

Hey guys,

So I'm a freshman in college and I've played many sports in my life that caused me to get concussions, I had 3 or 4 in High School but managed to get better in a couple of weeks for each one.

About 6 weeks ago a trunk of an SUV slammed my head and I had a pretty bad concussion at first, I wasn't able to really do any school work at all and I felt like crap. I was partying and drinking still (stupid of me, I know) because that was a way to not feel like I could do anything at all.

Now 6 weeks in, I still feel like crap but I'm able to do some things now. My main issues are:

- Bad short term memory (very hard for me to remember things)
- Headache all the time basically
- Dizziness
- Can't focus
- Feel like my brain barely functions, hard time doing math and schoolwork
- Feel slow

So, with these symptoms? Is it looking like PCS? Are there ways to speed up the possible recovery?

Thanks, and sorry if I broke any of the rules of the forum by posting this I know some forums have certain rules, just really want answers cause I feel like my doctors don't really have a way to help.
