Hi,

Yes, they are right. Your anxiety is causing more acid secretions in your stomach which is getting into your throat and causing burning sensation. stop worrying and consult a psychiatrist who will start some medications and alleviate your anxiety. Once you come out of anxiety everything else will be taken care of. Relax.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
