Last night, it happened again, but I could think, but the thoughts were so overwhelming that I couldn't do anything else but sit and stare and think.
I've read that the "fight or flight response" to a perceived threat now also includes "freeze". Maybe this is what's happening. I'm not qualified to say, but maybe do a bit of research about it and/or ask your T or Pdoc if you're seeing one.
