I do hope your energies and orientation in the world are coming back into focus. You might find the work of existentialist philosopher Kevin Aho helpful - he developed a functional neurological syndrome after a cardiac emergency:

I pleasantly discovered your blog .and, in my opinion, you. address topics that truly MATTER. But i was also surprised to learn of your head injury. I too have recovered (at least I believe I have) from a pretty severe TBI suffered eleven years ago. I wrote a book about the process, titled Bounce.. One lasting effect has been that it caused me to give up my passion for rock climbing. I tbelieve my book falls into the category posited below by William Sanchez. Another surprise, I read your book Why::The purpose of the universe, and also the similarly titled Why This Universe: God cosmology and Free Will by Mathew Rapaport., which is interesting but sometimes a product of poor logic and wishful thinking. I read it because I had been immersed in the rabbit hole of panpsychism

I’m glad you are in the mend. No one is promised tomorrow. Go to the beach with the family.

I wish I had made your acquaintance ten years ago while recovering from a pretty bad TBI and struggling to maintain my profession as a solo attorney. Disgruntled clients could have complained that their lawyer truly hwas equipped with a faulty brain,You may want to take a look at tmy book titled A Bounce, available on amazon/ kindle
