Can anxiety cause speech problems

Age: 22 Height/Weight: 5 foot 7, 213 lbs Medication: None Duration: Three months at leastI’ve been a bit of a nervous wreck these last couple of months on account of some stuff related to fear of brain eating amoeba (something I’ve already talked about in a few different subreddits) and it’s relationship to speech difficulties. Anyway I started noticing a couple months back that I was having this linguistic slip ups. Words would come out combined with another or I would trail off and suddenly have to resume a sentence. I’m not asking for medical advice, but I’m just wondering if anxiety does some form of psychological damage to the way we talk and formulate words.
