Does anyone else experience very convincing thoughts/symptoms that something you have done or consumed has caused you brain damage or cognitive decline?

I have been dizzy recently and I keep scanning every possible thing I’ve done to see if I have contaminated myself or consumed something I shouldn’t have.

Also hit my head pretty hard a couple weeks ago. I’ve been cleared by 2 doctors but the thought is still lurking that I have caused myself some sort of brain damage.

I have performance/perfectionism OCD so I immediately link my performance to the cognitive decline and go round in circles for multiple weeks.
