Dear user
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns
I went through your details. Acid reflex and anxiety are inter related. When you are worried, stressed or anxious, your stomach produces acid and the process inhibits acid reflex. Acid reflex creates pains including chest pain. This chest pain in turn triggers more anxiety. Anxiety worsens the acid reflex. This process is cyclic. You need anxiety treatment through counseling and psychotherapy. Aspirin will not help you in anxiety.

Good luck.
