Many of the worst anxiety symptoms can make you feel like there is something wrong with your brain. Our brains are arguably the most important part of our bodies, and deep down many people with anxiety have a fear that their brain may fail them. They worry that something is wrong with their brain, like a tumor or multiple sclerosis, and that worry causes them even more anxiety. Slurred speech is an example of an anxiety symptom that can be incredibly frightening. But it's common with those suffering from anxiety attacks, and in most cases it says nothing about the health of your brain.
Causes of Anxiety Slurred Speech
Slurred speech is when your words are jumbled together. It's known as Dysarthria, and the problem isn't really with the words themselves. The problem is generally with the muscles that you use to talk. That's what occurs when you drink too much alcohol, and your muscles simply don't work as properly. However, slurred speech is also partially subjective. So it's possible that it's your ability to recall and speak words that is at play as well. You should take my anxiety test first before you read onward, since it will help you understand your anxiety better.
