Stress, anxiety, depression most likely. At age 26, degenerative brain disease unlikely but not impossible. See a neurologist.

Agree with Dr Lentnek. You could have emotional challenges, complex migraines, a demyelinating disorder, occult infection, medication reactions, but also could be a consequence of vitamin deficiencies and recreational drug exposure. You might benefit by neuropsychological testing to sort this all out...

I've omitting words from sentences when speaking, and sometimes (more often) mispronounce words because I get what feels like a spasm in my jaw and/tongue. Have the same type of mini-pause in my fingers when typing sometimes. Worse when I aggitated.
