I'm right handed in everything and my right hand clearly dominates my golf swing, to an extreme fault (flippy release, handsy swing, etc...).

I have a bum left wrist from a car accident a few years ago, which I think causes my left wrist to break down, at least from a mental standpoint. I don't have any actual physical limitations to the range of motion in the left wrist, just some tingling/popping on occasion which I think makes me resist pounding the back of my left hand toward the target.
Is there any merit to considering changing to be a lefty golfer? I feel like leading with a flat wrist would be easier if i'm using my dominant hand. And bracing against my dominant (right) side feels stronger. Obviously this would be a drastic measure and would be like starting over for me. However, I've only been playing this sport since February of this year and I think I've ingrained some bad habits playing righty, with my flippy, handsy golf swing.
I'm probably over thinking, but I've always excelled athletically until this damn sport. I do believe I have the perseverance to get my game where I want it to be.
