You may be suffering from post-concussion syndrome which is what can happen after a trauma to head as you describe. It can include headaches, lethargy, malaise, difficulty concentrating, and other changes in mood or affect. I suggest you consult a neurologist or brain injury specialist to be fully examined and assessed for this or other injuries that may have occurred during that fall.
