I think I missed the thread(s) you are referencing -- I've been hit or miss on the threads lately. But I wanted to let you know that this happens to me, too. Generally the more upset I am about something, the harder it is for me to talk. And I call it losing my words, too. Because that's exactly how it feels. Like I couldn't say anything if my life depended on it. And what comes out is so soft that no one can hear it.
Maybe you're right about it being related to an emotional state continuum rather than an age. There are times when I feel very young in therapy, but I'm not sure those times correspond to the mute times.
