Idk what is this
So, I went to a doctor and he told me that it is gastritis, which is some due to eating too much spices. And I agree with that. But I still have two questions : If it is due to spicy still there is a moment when I felt like heaviness in my cheat, unable to breathe, feeling smthn and getting nervous and thinking what it is even when i didn't eat anything spicy. Second it even happend when I was watchin a show and some scene made me nervous and I started feeling it again, but I wanna ask, since I study in a college where I don't need to go regularly, so I sleep around 6 am in the morning and wake up around 4 pm (also coz I have been depressed 2 years ago), and then when I wake up I have my lunch and have dinner around 12 am or smthn. I just wanna know since my family hates this schedule of mine, but I am like this only and I feel comfortable too (GEN Z LIFESTYLE yk) do you think this schedule is not okay? and it could be a reason of what I feel? or what.

From a nutrition point of view, your irregular sleep and meal schedule can definitely contribute to gastritis, acidity, bloating and reflux, especially when you have a long gap after waking and then have a large meal, followed by dinner around midnight. However, the episodes of chest heaviness, difficulty breathing and nervousness—especially when triggered by stress or a particular scene—should not automatically be assumed to be gastritis or anxiety.
Next Steps
Since you are experiencing chest symptoms and breathlessness, please discuss these episodes with your doctor and get properly evaluated. If you develop severe/persistent chest pain or pressure, significant difficulty breathing, fainting, sweating, or pain spreading to the arm/jaw/back, seek urgent medical care.
For dietary guidelines you can connect through app for further discussion.
Health Tips
Gradually regularize your sleep schedule; aim for 7–9 hours.
Avoid long gaps between meals; eat smaller, balanced meals.
Keep dinner at least 2–3 hours before sleeping.
Limit spicy, oily/fried foods, caffeine, and carbonated drinks.
Avoid lying down immediately after meals.
Stay hydrated and eat slowly.
Maintain a food + symptom diary to identify triggers.
Since you have chest heaviness and breathing difficulty, follow up with your doctor rather than assuming it is only gastritis or anxiety.

Irregular sleep and meal timing can contribute to gastritis, acidity, reflux, bloating, and increased stress/anxiety, but the episodes of chest heaviness, difficulty breathing, nervousness, and symptoms triggered by stressful scenes should not automatically be attributed to gastritis.
Also, sleeping from 6 AM to 4 PM is a very delayed sleep schedule. Even if you feel comfortable with it, maintaining a more consistent sleep–wake cycle and gradually shifting toward an earlier schedule would generally be preferable.
☆ For nutrition :-
● Avoid very spicy, oily, fried and highly acidic foods, especially late at night.
● Try not to have a very large meal immediately before sleeping.
● Keep meals relatively regular rather than having only two meals with a very long gap.
● Limit caffeine/energy drinks, especially later in her waking period.
● Stay adequately hydrated.
