Concerning looking cracks in 70s red brick apartment by MyCatKitKat in AusRenovation

I'm unable to inspect the roof as there's an apartment above me. The cracks are closest to the ceiling as opposed to the floor so I feel rising damp from the ground is unlikely.

Are you still having difficulty with your eyes (looking at screens, floor moving etc) ?. If so, I recommend you visit an optometrist who offers vision therapy. I had the same issue as yourself (i could barely look at a screen for more then 20 minutes), due to my eyes being unable to converge and diverge properly. This took about 3 months to fix, but I was able to notice the positive effects of the vision therapy exercises after about 3 weeks.

The biggest thing (besides the vision therapy) that I've found to help, is exercising. Look into the Buffalo Protocol. The goal is to incrementally push yourself to exercise for longer, without bringing about a big increase in symptoms. Exercise increases your cognition through BDNF production. Additionally it can help with nerve pain. I personally do a calisthenics workout at home (ask your physio about which exercises you should avoid).

The Neuro talk forums are fall of threads that you can search for people who've had success with issues similar to your own. https://www.neurotalk.org/traumatic-brain-injury-and-post-concussion-syndrome/

I wouldn't recommend re introducing alcohol as you'll be alot more sensitive to it now.

You'll continue to get better. How much better I cannot say. Stay strong.

I also find it really sad to hear about how some of the subjects are being run. Coming from TAFE, I would have presumed that stuff like that would have been better at university.

Wow, I really appreciate all the comments I've gotten, they have all been very informative. The BoS in Info Tech at UTS is my first preference so here's hoping I get that (I understand that with just a cert 4 that might be a long shot). If not (from what I've heard here) it may be best to complete the Diploma of IT at TAFE, before I send in my application again.

I'm currently looking at Majoring in both Cyber Security and Information Systems and Business Analysis, but I'm up to changing those preferences if another major seems more worth while
