Of course it can. A brain hemorrhage causes an increase in pressure at the location of the bleeding. Since the brain is in a very tightly cramped area that doesn't allow for swelling, the pressure put on the brain causes a lack of oxygen to the part of the brain where the bleeding is. This in turn causes the body to increase blood flow to get more oxygen to the injured area. More oxygen means more blood which means more bleeding which means less oxygen. It's a downward spiral.
Depending on which part of the brain is bleeding, anything from emotions, personality, memory, cognitive ability and motor functions may be affected.

Yes, a brain hem can cause personality changes. It the hem is located in the frontal region of your brain then personality will be affected.

The human brain is a very delicate and well balanced organ, perfectly designed to do it's job in it's complete form. Any damage therefore changes something, therefore if your hemorrhage is in a part of the brain responsible for personality (ie the pre frontal cortex) then you will experience changes, whether for the better or worse.

Yes, it might affect/ restrict the physical movement and will therefore effect the way one feels about themselves, thus the personality will get affected.

I have two friends who have had them and both of them are just the same as they were before. Mind you, I think they were just very lucky. So I would have to say, it is possible but not necessarily going to happen.
