Do you comfort eat?

[Spirit]

Sometimes when people are angry, stressed, worried or upset, they turn to food.

Are you someone who eats more when you're in an emotional state or do you go the other way and not eat at all?

I ould go to a bakery n buy myself my favourite foods like Samosas and egg puffs to forget my stress/ orries

 

[Dizzi]

I tend to eat when its the girl monthly thing ykno...

 

[Sheikah_Witch]

Not anymore, but some years ago I had some huge trouble comfort eating. I gained 10 pounds over the course of 8 months due to comfort eating so much. It was tough scaling it down, but I'm way better now.

 

[Dio]

No I don't like to eat when stressed. I have to force feed myself or I just wouldn't eat. I don't understand comfort eating at all as it's not something I have ever done.

 

[mαrkαsscoρ]

not at all, if I'm in a not so good place emotionally, I usually can't even stand the sight of food, and as a result would have to force myself to eat in those instances

 

[Fraxinus]

Not really. I usually struggle to stomach things when I'm stressed. I usually just sleep instead. I do have the tendency to snack when I'm bored, though.

 

[Lydia]

Yes and no. Sometimes I'd rather go without food (especially when around people), but other times I just want to eat chocolate and cry.

 

[~Kilza~]

I don't. When things aren't going well for me mentally due to stress or emotions or what have you, the last thing I really want to do is eat.

I generally find that if I'm stressed out or worried baout something then I don't take to food easily, so comfort eating isn't something I really do.

It's the other way around for me Jimmu
I forget my worries when I scoff

 

[Pennycan1800]

It depends for me but I normally do just out of boredom.

 

[Spiritual Mask Salesman]

When I'm not doing well emotionally it gets hard for me to eat at all. So, no, I don't comfort eat.

 

[ExLight]

When I'm bummed or stressed I kinda just gulp whatever down, so I don't even notice it if it makes a conscious difference.
If I have no food I eat nothing, if I do I eat most of it, the mood remains the same for some reason.

 

[Spirit]

Can confirm I definitely do, at least out of anxiety.

I ate 5 chocolate bars on a ten minute break today.
