Not related: Acid reflux would not cause anxiety or uncontrollable thoughts. Please see your doctor or a psychiatrist as soon as possible for treatment. and diagnosis. Uncontrollable thoughts may be a symptoms of a serious psychiatric disorder. These disorders are treatable but you really need to be seen as soon as possible. If you feel as if you may hurt yourself or someone else go to Emergency Department
