Default Loss of visual memory, creativity and imagination

Hi! Sorry for long post!

Hit my head two weeks ago. Only been getting worse. Got no advice from the Doctor, so i just kept going as normal. Now i am afraid i have got some serious cognitive issues.

Hi again,

Sorry for all of the posts.

I really struggle with my cognition worsening and my memory being really bad. I struggle to learn and remember new things, i have trouble planning and doing simple tasks.

My mind is also very blank. It used to be full of ideas when presented with a tasks at school or papers to write, but i cant come up with nothing now. I just feel so stupid.

I just sit in my chair and nothing comes in my head. No thoughts or images of things i want or like. I used to be able to entertain my myself with just my thoughts and imagination. Now that its gone i Feel so lost and bored.

I have always been a good writer, but i cant wirte good anymore. I cant «see» what sentences fit together and it doesnt flow like before. Writing texts freely is so hard now. Never had issues before with that. When i try think my mind struggles and hurt again, and like i now i should be able to do it easy, but i just stare at my computer and cant figure out How to make a good sentence because i cant see the alternatives!

I struggle to think abstractly and creativitly. My thinking is very concrete and specific in its thinking, and my mind feels very locked and i cant think from different sides or around a topic. My mind is very literal and basic it feels.

My brain also struggle with processing and understanding information. I struggle to comprehend what i see and hear. It just does not penetrate into my brain, and i have to focus on simple messages and still struggle. Feels like i live in a constant fog and in another world because the world feels hazy and i am so spaced out.

I also struggle with not being able to visualize like i said in another post, and i Feel like this connects to my cognition since i am a very visual learner and my memory is visual.

Does anyone have any tips on what to do or if there is anything that helps bring back my cognitive skills?

I struggle to see simple images, and when i see them i can only hold then for a few seconds. I have no imagination, fantasy or creativity, its all gone, and i Feel stuck in the moment with no way out.

I try to dream and make stories in my head, but there is this resistance and blankness in the way. I also get out of breath and a pressure in my chest and throat when trying to see images move and create a story. I dont manage more than a few seconds. My imagination and creativity is gone and i cant move the small images i see, and the images i see are far away, blurry and i cant connect with them or Feel them.

I used to dream and imagine things in the back of my head, but now i cant do that. Its all black and feels like that part of my brain is not existing.

Its like the screen i visualize on has moved in my head and is now moving around all the time and is inaccessible. Its not steady in the back of my head and clear anymore.

The visuals in the back of my head dissapeared over a few days. I could see the images becoming more distant and blurry until one day it was all Black and blank and empty back there. Then the images dissapeared over night from the front of my head, so now if i try i only see things outside my head for a few seconds far away if that makes sense?

Do you think i can get my normal visualization and daydreaming back? I just dont get the images or urges anymore and it feels so permanent and scary!

I also lost the urge and the comfort the dreams give me! Can this come back?

Is there anything special i should do? I Feel like now i have lost all of myself.

It causes so much anxiety and panick. I want to be myself.

Its only been two weeks since this happened, and its has just steadily gotten worse. There must have been something that triggered it.

I am so depressed and sad now. So afraid i have permanent damage. I have never experienced this full emptyness of everything.
