Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi,

I read your query and can understand your distress. You have mentioned that you met with an accident. I would have wanted to know if there was any head injury and did you lose consciousness. In that case, you would have suffered brain injury which can result in symptoms mentioned by you. In case there was no head injury, the cause of your symptoms might be completely psychological.

I would suggest that you seek a psychiatric consultation for complete assessment and initiating appropriate treatment. Treatment with antidepressants like escitalopram would be effective in your condition.

Hope this information was helpful. Best wishes.
