Still on the Mend

Three weeks now since the accident and still I continue to suffer the aftermath. I can barely get into a car now, as it brings on serious anxiety and panic attacks to do so, I even begin to tear up when there is too many other cars around. So due to this I only get into the car when it can't be avoided like doctors or Job centre related things. Physically I thought I was getting better, but have now found this depends on the day. Some days it is just the non stop headache, and biting twinge in my neck, others i'ts full blown agony my head throbbing like I've never known before and serious earache along with the neck pain feeling so severe I have to try and just put myself to bed. I am doing what the GP recommended which was to not coddle the neck and to use it , to prevent it seizing up...but this is what tends to cause the worst days..especially when I turn my head to look at something or someone. My sinus drain seems a teeny bit better, but is still occurring, which when in the laying position causes  my throat to feel as though there is something in there blocking it. I been lucky and have no numbness or pins and needles sensations, but have noticed my shoulder begins to aches something chronic if I do too much. I will be so glad when these things go away, as they are hindering me in my original plans. I should have been long done with the bathroom by now and onto the hallway and landing, but simply cannot get a thing done due to the head and neck pain becomes too great after only a mere 5 mins of doing anything. Just my luck I suppose. :(  In the below photo the RED is the areas of actual injury pinpoints the Yellow is the referred pain and headache
I endure.
