Sad but true!!!
Hmm - food as anti-anxiety? That doesn't come across right to me for some reason. Do people eat when they're nervous?
Yes, people eat when they're nervous, stressed out, tired, angry, depressed....Hmm - food as anti-anxiety? That doesn't come across right to me for some reason. Do people eat when they're nervous?
I'd say it's better considered a 'thing to do'
Yes, they do, and the OP is right on. They'd be a lot better off to spend an hour at the gym. That's the best stress reducer that there is. A long, brisk walk works, too.Yes, people eat when they're nervous, stressed out, tired, angry, depressed....
They also eat because it is a fast and inexpensive way to become "fulfilled" in a way. Much like sex. Instant gratification. Much faster and easier than working hard to try to obtain a raise at work, much faster and easier than going to school for years to get a fulfilling job. Much faster and easier than practicing sports or arts or any other skill.Hmm - food as anti-anxiety? That doesn't come across right to me for some reason. Do people eat when they're nervous?

I don't. I completely lose my appetite under those conditions, and if I try to force myself to eat, it comes right back up.Yes, people eat when they're nervous, stressed out, tired, angry, depressed....
I am the same. I completely lose my appetite whenever I am upset or worried about something, and I literally have to force myself to eat.l dont or l cant eat anything when l am not in a fine mood
I can totally relate to that. It's like an effort to even chew the food because it makes you sick. Protein shakes are helpful during those times. They help to expand your stomach if you drink one first thing in the morning and make it easier to tolerate food throughout the day, at least it works for me.I don't.

I'll be honest - I use food in the way most people use alcohol or tobacco.Hmm - food as anti-anxiety? That doesn't come across right to me for some reason. Do people eat when they're nervous?

I'm the same way. Depression and/or sadness = not eating or throwing up.I don't. I completely lose my appetite under those conditions, and if I try to force myself to eat, it comes right back up.![]()
I do the same thing. When I am under extreme emotional stress, the weight starts dropping off, and I have to force myself to eat, and I also drink supplements between meals. I can't tell you how many people over the years have remarked "I'd love to be as tiny as you", but I calmly explain to them that they don't want to practice my weight loss program, because it really sucks.I am the same.

The same here. When I'm physically ill, I can't eat a thing either. I manage to maintain my weight pretty well regardless. The protein shakes and supplements are very helpful to help increase your appetite and maintain a healthy weight too, so I do those too, like you.I do the same thing.

Thanks for being so graphic.:lol:I don't. I completely lose my appetite under those conditions, and if I try to force myself to eat, it comes right back up.![]()
I agree..when you are lovelorn..you eat nothing..One coffee and a fag..(ps..mods..a fag means a cigarette in England!!)..I eat when I'm bored or depressed; when I'm anxious I lose all appetite. Apart from that, the OP holds some good general truth.
Faggot = small stick. Fag = small cancer stick. Pants = underpants. Trousers = pants. England = rotten weather questionable food.I agree..when you are lovelorn..you eat nothing..One coffee and a fag..(ps..mods..a fag means a cigarette in England!!)..
