I think you don’t mean it in a literal sense, right? The brain doesn’t have nerve cells, so even if you touched it, you wouldn’t feel it. That’s why brain surgeries are often done while the patient is awake. But I think I know what you’re talking about. When I stutter, it feels like looking into the night sky, seeing all the stars and trying to understand how far away everything is and how endlessly big the universe is. The more I try to think about it and understand it, the more lost I get. When I stutter, I can’t grasp what’s going wrong, it’s like a genuine blackout. Does anyone get what I mean?
