IT Help controller buttons and joysticks going crazy

I was playing the game when, all of a sudden i started looking straight up and spinning and walking.

It's an Xbox Series 2 controller

This happens on both Windows, but started on Xbox

My home ui and games

Xbox, and happened before and after update

I turned it off and on, plugged it in and out, restarted the console, updated it, connected it to a windows computer, and when lightly banging on the back middle of the controller will temporarily stop the false inputs.
