Sorry to hear that. I've had a few concussions, too, and there is definitely a psychological component. I found myself thinking "Is how I reacted to stimuli X because of the concussions, or due to a flaw in my character?"

One day I realized that I am who I am; no A/B test can be done for my life with and without concussions. Causal inference can't be done by comparing experiences pre and post concussion. At most, it helps guide me as learn to deal with situations better - but not much more.

Still get tired, but fasting helps me stay productive.

Quite right. You don’t even need a concussion to have this quandary. Low blood sugar, lacking sleep, too much/little caffeine, stressful day, etc, all affect how I react but in all cases it was me albeit not at my best.
