Why do i get startled so easy is because i had a head injury?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to say...: Easy startling could be more pronounced in someone with a prior head injury. It also could be due to stress or just within normal variation. If it is really concerning and bothersome, i would seek out the opinion of a health professional.
