Hello about 6 years ago when I was 13 I started having bizzare symptoms after What I think were head injuries(I really can't remember, they weren't severe enoguh to the degree I went to the hostpital)Basically I went from athletic socially proactive straight A student to zombie who couldn't socialize or feel pleasure. Anyway the most harrowing symptom i've had since was the expericance that I can't think. After the injury I could literally stare at the mirror for 15 mins and feel so sedated to not have but five thoughts. I have not been able to socialize since then because it feels like nothing is on my mind of this. I know it sounds pretty bizzare but I was wondering if this symptom is really out there or is common with brain injury.
Could it be like nerve damage or something? I developed Postrual orthostatic hypotension after I started feeling ill and i know that comes from nerve damage. |

POH can also be caused by inflammation that reduces nerve function. Neck injuries can be a cause of recurring inflammation to the brain stem. C-4 to T-2 injuries can get inflamed and also cause autonomic nerve dysfunction to manifest in thoracic systems.
Puberty and adolescence can cause the symptoms of a concussion to be magnified. At 19, your system should be settling down. What symptoms are you experiencing now?
