Hi all,

It has been a while since i've posted. Recap: In June I fell and hit my head while walking with my dog. Blacked out for a few seconds, but picked myself up and went home. Tests came back negative. Now dealing with memory issues, fatigue, and headaches.

This is hard to explain... but sometimes, I feel like I just don't want to have conversations with people beyond "Hi, how are you." Usually, I feel embarrassed I won't find the right words. Or, my memory still feels like scrambled eggs, and i'm scared I won't always be able to follow along. I also have a big problem with word finding, like many others on here.

My family thinks i'm over exaggerating. I've passed along many of the links i've read on here, but I don't feel like they've taken them seriously. I guess because my tests came back negative, "nothing could be wrong."

I've always been an outgoing and social person. When my friends come to hang out with me, its not that I don't want to talk to them. I just tense up, its like I can't control it. Its like that awkward moment on a bad date when you don't know what to say... but all the time when they're here.

This is hard to describe. Can anyone offer advice? Its like I fall apart when someone wants to talk to me beyond a few exchanges..
