Near the start of the movie, Bertie is asked by his Doctor to put a large amount of glass marbles in his mouth and talk (to try and cure his stutter). Bertie is seen to struggle and there are some choking noises before he spits them out. No outright struggling to breathe but it still set me on edge

Though not in the same class as the kind of disability this question is usually understood to refer to, the main character's stutter is severe enough to be a significant obstacle. He is portrayed by an actor who does not have a stutter.

Near the start of the movie, Bertie is asked to put glass marbles in his mouth in an attempt to cure his stutter. He struggles with them in his mouth for a moment then spits them out - no actual spit/saliva is shown but the act of spitting as he removes them from his mouth could be inferred

It might not raise to the level of a full on anxiety attack, but Bertie is visibly extremely nervous before speaking publicly and this impacts his performance to various degrees throughout the movie.
