It could be anxiety in one for or another. I get anxiety in high-pressure social situations sometimes (mainly because I work from home a lot and don't get many opportunities to socialize offline anymore). It's not like I freak out or anything, I just start drawing blanks, mumble, and sometimes stutter. It becomes difficult to complete a thought.

It's no biggie though. There are was of coping and over-coming your issues. As others recommended, exercise helps. If physical activity itself doesn't help, try something with a strong mental or emotional component like martial arts, rock climbing, or dancing. You just need an outlet for whatever you're holding on to.
