How to stop worring about making mistakes when speaking

Everybody knows that you have to practice to get good in something, so this is also true when you're learning a foreign language. l've been living in Tokyo and studying japanese for exactly one year now and l've learned a lot. I can read long text with lots of kanji and my listening comprehension is pretty good, but my speaking skills are definitely lower. My problem is that when in trying to, for example, answer a question in japanese my brain goes completely blank and I panic and forgot everything I know except super easy words. And I don't know how to fix this. Is it an anxiety problem or skill issue? Cause ok l'm an introverted person and I don't really like to talk anyway, but l'm feeling very stupid about still not being able to speak so I want to be able to. What are the steps to overcome this problem? 🙁
