Discussion Anyone else get so low they stop even thinking/feeling?

[Thereisnothing]

Today I have reached a point where am under so much pressure with all sorts of things on top of trying to deal with grief, that all of a sudden its as though my mind has shut off and am just blank. As though my brain has shut down even not able to process anything anymore. I wondered if anyone had this too and if its just a coping mechanism the mind and body kicks in so you dont go 'mad' for want of a better word. Its also a bit like I dont even recognize my own surroundings, bedroom, belongings or know who I am.
I dont know if this is just going to be temporary so my mind has time to rest awhile or if its a pre cursor to having a breakdown. Any thoughts and suggestions be welcome, thanks,

I sort of experience this too. There are times when I sit in my living room or my bedroom and just zone out for an hour or two. Or I wander aimlessly around my flat. I don't have any suggestions on what to do but if you ever need to talk to me you can.

Hello, I didn't think of it as zoning out, but maybe it could well be I'm doing that. Its very disconcerting for me as by nature I am always very alert and on the ball and nothing gets passed me.I feel brain dead right now, yet am still able to type, perhaps its a very strange version of working on auto pilot. Thanks for offer of a chat, means alot.
