Valentines day was really weird this year... I had 3 different exes get in touch with me to tell me they loved me and missed me and wished things had worked out. It was a little awkward. I'll just chalk it up to the sentiments of the Holiday.
I was thinking about it the other day, and I have a friend that got into a car accident about two years ago. Amongst other things he suffered blunt head trauma and was in a coma for several days. As a result he suffered a little bit a brain damage. Nothing too serious, but he kind of just stopped caring about everything. A conscience issue.
Now, I've never been in such a serious accident, but when I was younger I had a couple of really bad concussions from riding bikes. Knocked myself out cold several times. Always seems like I landed head first. Later on I decided to become a fighter, and subsequently have been getting punched in the head for the past 5 years.
About a year in a half ago I even ended up in a barroom brawl and got punched in the temple. Funny thing is, I don't even remember fighting, the only evidence I had the next day was the bruise that stretched from the corner of my eye to my temple and a the new nickname "The Brothers Grimm" acquired by my brother and I.
My point is the people that were dear to me and I loved 2 years ago I still love and care deeply about, but for whatever reason I can't make myself care about anyone or anything new. I really don't care much about anything anymore. Not only that, but I just don't feel as smart, or quick thinking as I used to be. Sometimes I just find myself confused as to where I am, and what I'm doing. I've taken to carrying a pocket sized notepad everywhere I go to serve as my memory.
Do you think it's possible that abuse to my head might have caused something to become damaged that really shouldn't have? How do I go about addressing this problem? I can't afford some hoyde toyde cat scans or brain doctors.
Oh yea. and I have a slight slur/lisp from an undetermined origin.
