Likely because your entering some level of meditative state because your focus is on the mirror and not on your thoughts

I once accidentally went so deep in meditation that all my self awareness dissappeared but I remember it

I also had my eyes open, it was kind of like sleep paralysis but yourself just isn't there at all

People who stare in the mirror and experience what is described in this meme probably experience something similar
