I have officially diagnosed myself with PCS despite the doctors not wanting to do so. It has been a very long 16 months since my car accident. My brain is still not right and I get incredibly emotional when I speak about it. I only get headaches when I become very stressed out which leads to crying, and immediately a headache comes on. It doesn't last long which I am thankful for because the headaches for a month and a half after the car accident was enough for me. I have constant fatigue which people have likened to laziness. I seem to be the only one who remembers what I was like before my accident. I got my day worth of chores done before noon, but now, I need a nap after doing laundry. I am still hopeful that this will all go away and see the occasional glimmer of my old self. Never did I think I would feel like this after my accident.
