I had bad TBI last year and still feel off.

Don't like silence. Can't stand it. Especially in zoom when no one answers questions. I'll answer even if I don't really know or was half paying attention. Worst, I have a divergence with the speed at which my brain is spewing words and the pace I speak. It can be difficult to articulate and I'll stumble over my words or I have to stop myself then rephrase my question since it can be multiple thoughts.

My wife says I need to be evaluated...

My PCM isn't really concerned. I am struggling because this is impacting my work. Guess I'm asking if there's a 3rd party evaluation or something yall may recommend looking into. I feel very stuck. Like I'm in 2 or 3 gears at once if that makes sense.

I don’t have a lot of advice, but I think an evaluation would be helpful and just sending you some healing thoughts.
