Thoughts that don't make sense.
When I'm laying down at night, or for a nap..my mind begins to drift into this thought process of things that don't even make sense. Once I realize that my mind is racing with things that aren't making sense, I snap out of it and I completely forget what it was I was thinking about....don't know if this is going to make sense to any of you.
This time I was actually able to remember a couple things my mind went through. For instance...just now, I was laying down for a nap. As I was laying there my mind started to drift and think about clicking on the Facebook symbol on the Facebook website...which is random..and then suddenly I found myself saying this in my head: "He was doing wheelies on a tricycle." What the heck?
Am I losing my mind? Or is my brain drifting off to sleep and cycling through thoughts before my body falls asleep? I know when your sleeping your mind kinda cycles through things..that's part of the reason we have dreams.
Weird.

What happened: I was randomly assaulted from behind in June of 2011. I was knocked unconscious for an unknown amount of time (less than 30 minutes) and have no memory of the event. CT scan showed contusion and hematoma of the left frontal lobe. I spent 3 days in the hospital. Diagnosed with Post-Concussion Syndrome in September 2011. Currently have Medicaid, Medicare and SSI.
Current symptoms: Brain fog, mild memory issues, problems with spontaneity, occasional spacing out, word finding difficulties, tinnitus in right ear and some other things that I can't explain.
Life after the brain injury: 4 years after the injury, I'm engaged to my beautiful girlfriend of 5 years, I'm the CEO of my own business, Notorious Labs, I've taught myself how to program complex games and apps which is a feat I never thought I'd accomplish and now live a semi-normal life with very mild PCS symptoms.
Slowly but surely regaining my life back.
