Blank Mind Syndrome WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Does your mind always go blank when someone asks you a question? This syndrome can be particularly embarrassing because the people in front of you are awaiting your response. In this video I explain that when you often lose your train of thought, this is an indication that your stress response has reached a certain threshold. And when you lose the ability to think of what to say next, you lose your cognitive functioning which renders you unable to connect with others. This side effect of social anxiety can result in much fear, panic, worry and anxiety around being judged by others. A sound and functioning mind is imperative in order to connect with others and overcome social anxiety.

To all of those who are suffering from mind blankness or what to tell or ask in a communication try to write atleast about 15 minutes a day about anything you like, how your day went, your view on politics it might be any creative writing, writing will give you clear brain structure of what are going to say next and what the other person would think about the conversation at the same time, this has helped me in my communication skills a lot and this could also help you, if you dont see the result dont quit it just do keep more practicing you will definitely achieve what you want




Thanks for reading❤

This sounds similar to my problems.

My inner world has deteriorated, I used to have a very active mind and always thinking of new ideas, being creative, having more of an inner monologue, etc.

Now I have problems with cognition and I can’t think or do anything original. I feel like an empty vessel whereas before I had a rich inner world.

I find it hard to enjoy myself and connect with people socially like I used to.

I also suffer from a brain fog and tension on the sides of my head occasionally.

and those who aren't stressed, but still their mind goes blink. It's not about going blink. It's like my mind is empty, nothing to say, no thoughts, nothing, is that the same thing?

"it's not a memory issue", thank you for that...

[Pennzoil]

This is 100% accurate for me, been like this for a very long time, can't even think for a simple idea and conversations, even writing this sentences feel very hard to think for the words for me

[playray]

My mind is so bad I’ve blanked multiple times during this video!

[Prymistic]

Its really scary experiencing this. I feel dizzy or lightheaded whenever this happens to me. Its the same feeling as reading a book thats boring. Youre reading but your mind isnt really there. Its like i hear whats being said but my mind is like a pasta strainer. No matter how much i try to think or even think smart, my plans comes out in fragments. Its like i think of something and i get a general idea, but then it just gets all scrambled and i forget what it even was. Whenever someone is telling me something, i grab only a select few sentences out of the whole conversation, and then when its over im holding these random sentences not knowing what they even mean. I even find myself reading some of the simplest sentences even a kid can comprehend... over... and over... People make fun of me for making simple mistakes. After the mistake is made i instantly know what i have done wrong, but i dont catch it all the time. I dont even know whats wrong with me. Im not stupid, but its like I can understand something, but not be able to remember it. So, the result is as if i never understood in the first place. Someone please tell me im not the only one. Some days i remeber things so vividly, it even makes me cry. I honesty feel so scared to do anything in life because of this.

Why i cant get out of this misery of having a blank mind everytime when im with any person...i just cant fight it

[ivamikulek]

You are amazing! I have not until now (years of searching for advice and answers) came across anybody that explains social anxiety and all of the syptoms so well… thank you so much!! Keep up the good work!

I literally feel like a deer in the headlights!
I have been running on auto pilot for the last 2 years. Go figure. My mind is blank and my heart is racing all the time. When I go in the grocery store I completely forget everything that’s on my list ( that’s why I HAVE to write it down). When ever I talk to anyone I instantly go blank. I can’t seem to keep a clear thought no matter how much I try to focus. Now with going back to school after 20 years it’s all too much.

Mind is blank and detached from my life and how I used to think fast a lot, This started after I quit smoking THC cartridges for 4 months i am now 2 weeks clean.

[Anonimiteit]

I’ve had this for almost 2 years. I’ve had a few months in those 2 years where I’d say it wasn’t there anymore. The most frightening thing is the anxiety that this brings and the fact that it in some kind of way seems to affect my memory too.
I honestly thought there was something wrong with my brain because life has not felt normal for a long long time.
Now I feel like I live the same day every single day and it’s a haunting feeling..
Can I talk to someone I really need help or just someone to listen I can’t stand this anymore. Life has been absolute hell

After a mentally abusive relationship my brain literally freezes every time i am asked a question, & just as you mentioned in this video I’ve been Googling how to fix memory exercises to help the memory 😂 but it’s about dealing with the flight or fight response I developed from the abuse great video! 👍🏻

[jointhemovement]

I used to be cheerful, creative, talkative and funny person. It's as if everything is gone nowhere. My mind is empty even though I know a lot and can tell/joke quite good. I can't make up anything in my mind now. I can't keep the conversation going. I can do different tasks in studying at uni, it's ok. I think something over and can express my thoughts, feelings and emotions on the internet, but in real life it seems like I've lost that possibility. I feel like I'm lost. From time to time I feel some enlightenment and feel much better, but it disappears very quickly (1-2 days max). I can't relax at all, even when I drink some alcohol (I do it rarely). I'm tired of that feeling. I have been feeling like that for 2 years already. What can I do to get rid of that feeling?

[gridiron]

I started feeling like this after I didn't sleep good for 5 months my mind feels blank and less vivid i exercise everyday I eat healthy I try to limit stress I sleep good everyday

I recall being younger and thinking in images and internal monologues. I got older and it became so natural to me I didn’t think about it besides the fact that I noticed the lack of imagery as I got older. I took psychedelics once felt like it deconstructed my brains web/tree of concepts pre trip I’d think in concepts that branch out and connect it was fast and automatic. During the trip I was meditating had an out of body experience ego death and became hyper aware of my thoughts forming and me being a semi separate observer. This was the birth of my internal monologue it mimicked the bit scene in tv with an angel and devil on your shoulder two opposing views. There were pros and cons to it like everything. I was still observing the thoughts but I’d use them for creativity and such but the constant thinking that I couldn’t turned off started draining me and annoying me. This is when I felt too self aware of the monologue I just wanted it to stop and for it to be quite then one day I woke up to silence. It kept me in the present being far from thoughts of the past of future. Now that it’s been even longer it feels like my brain has reconstructed the web of concepts a new and that’s what I’ve been thinking with however It requires actual effort to search through it like a database now unlike before. So most of the time my heads silent with nothing going on just me observing feeling me emotions. I seem to be functioning fine however I do find myself going into my head when I’m talking to people expecting myself to be think and for their to be silence. It’s kinda of funny because it’s much like if my conscience threw me under the bus where I used to have help by using the monologue I now have to wing it. It forces me to be present I guess but most of the time it makes me feel like I’m not speaking enough.
Also wanted to add that Ive had a constant stress in my life since I was born the same exact stress and all my stress branches from the same problem all relating back to my family. Basically I expect an argument or yelling from how my parents act. So it’s not far fetched for me to say it’s fight or flight and the ego death reset my fight or flight allowing me a moment of grace before the very thing that stressed me out became my own thoughts and also the realization that I could forget something so impactful in my life probably sent me hurdling towards the same stress I had from the start. I do feel like I’ve released the pent up emotions attached to a lot of past events and that’s why I tend to keep my head out of the past.
