From Wikipedia

In psychiatry and neuropsychology, thought blocking is a sudden and involuntary silence during a person's speech, followed by an abrupt switch to another topic. Persons undergoing thought blocking may utter incomprehensible speech; they may also repeat words involuntarily or make up new words (neologism). As a symptom, thought blocking is indicative of an underlying mental disorder, such as schizophrenia, anxiety disorders, petit mal seizures, post-traumatic stress disorder, dissociative identity disorder, bradyphrenia, aphasia, dementia and delirium.
