Why is speaking a new language 100x scarier than listening or reading?

I can read full sentences, understand shows, and even text people…
But if someone talks to me IRL, I malfunction like a Windows 98 PC.

Is this just a universal experience, or am I cooked?
How did you get over the “freeze when speaking” phase?
