EOS R8 screen goes black upon recording video or taking photo

So recently I started noticing my screen start to glitch, I didn’t think too much of it. Until I realized when I turn it on it looks fine and the screen looks fine. But the moment I start to record the screen glitches and goes straight black. The camera still takes pictures and still records perfectly. But in order to see what I recorded or what I took a picture of, I have to turn the camera off. Wait around 1-2 min and turn on the camera again but even then I have like a time limit before it goes straight black again. I don’t know if the camera is having issues now or it’s a normal thing

That is not right. The display should not "glitch" during video recording. Does it happen through the viewfinder?

Luckily through the viewfinder it’s normal. So that’s what I’ve been using to get the shots I need.
