My car is stalling when I press on the accelerator

After I drive for a few miles and I come to a stop say at a light, my car will sometimes stall when i press on the accelerator. It will also start shaking for a bit and then subside. This then repeats every single time I stop and press on the accelerator afterward. Any help would be much appreciated.

Automatic im guessing?

See if your alternator belt is loose (but generally if that is so the battery light will flash).

Though it is rare on a honda the fuel pump can start to fail, mine did and it started stalling one day, eventually the pump died and left me stranded.

Check fuel pressure.

If manual transmission check clutch fluid/slave and master cylinders, and try to feel if tit seems like the clutch is slipping.
