You’re getting ready to all a question, then BAM! your mind goes totally blank! Or you have something important to tell someone, but BAM! You forget right as you were about to start speaking! What causes this? What happens in the brain?
In: Biology
I actually just learned about this! When you get anxious, the firing of your neurons becomes less inhibited. This means that thought paths are less clear, and it can almost be like static in your brain. Suddenly more thought paths are open at once and you can’t choose one, which feels like blanking out.
