Thought blocking is a type of thought disorder in which a person will suddenly and involuntarily fall silent, or abruptly change to another subject.

When thought blocking, some people may express themselves in a manner that is not understandable to others. They may repeat words involuntarily or make up new words.

When doctors diagnose thought blocking they consider a variety of causes, such as schizophrenia, anxiety, petit mal seizures, dissociation, bradyphrenia, aphasia, dementia or delirium.
