Default Car turns off when I press the accelerator

Hey, I got a 94 honda civic DX. Everytime I turn on the air conditioner the car begins shaking a little like it's about to turn off, if I press the accelerator while I'm parked it turns off. It hasnt turned off yet while I'm driving.

But when I have the AC off the car is just fine, it doesn't shake and when I press the accelerator it doesn't turn off.

I've had this problem before and it went away, but now it's back and I'm wondering what is causing it. Oil and coolant water is fine. Could it be my car battery doesn't have enough juice to support the AC?

Not quite the same problem but a friend has a similar problem, with the a/c going and when accelerating the RPMs would drop really low, turns out needed more freon one of the fans wasn't grounded, I know that sounds weird, but we fixed it and it was fine.
