Termaneural
(noun)
> A mental state where the brain experiences a sudden internal jolt or short-circuit — often triggered by stress, emotional shock, or cognitive overload.
People in a termaneural state may feel mentally frozen, detached from memory, or unable to express what’s happening inside their head. It’s not exactly pain — more like a psychological “brainquake.”

Example:
> “He just blanked out mid-sentence during the exam. Full-on termaneural hit.”
“After scrolling for 4 hours, I got that weird termaneural fog again.”
“It felt like my thoughts got disconnected from my brain — must’ve been a termaneural spike.”
Origin:
Coined in 2025 by an independent thinker who described the term as inspired by earthquakes — where sudden shocks cause a break, slip, or detachment.
