    I eat copious amounts of food (mostly sweets), I withdraw and hide from people and the outside world.

    This is me. I'm never going to drown my sorrows in apples or oranges (I wish!) It's usually whatever tasty, yummy, orgasm in your mouth sweets I can find. :blush:

    Oh, I forgot to add:
    • Copious amounts of binge shopping on Amazon for stuff I don't need.

    Totally. Retail therapy is way too easy online.

    I watch Dr. Phil and think "Hell, at least I'm not like those people" and I feel all better.

    I watch C-SPAN and think the same thing.

    I'm coming down from my weekend marathon endorphin high, lack of sleep due to soreness, and post race calorie gorge. Today is going to be difficult

    Whiskey. Riding motorcycles at well over 100 on public roads. I'm sure there's more.

    I’m a recovering alcoholic so I don’t drink anymore when I’m depressed , but when I did I used to lock myself in my room with a huge mason jar of vodka with apple juice, and just get completely bombed on my bed while listening to music. That was my favorite pastime for several years.

    Now I binge eat and isolate myself when I’m sad and anxious. I also will take sleeping pills during the day so I can sleep the day away.

    I will lay in bed for hours reading trash gossip boards like Lipstickalley when I’m depressed, because they make me laugh.

    This thread is so depressing, but yet also comforting because some of y'all deal with shiz the same way I do and it makes me feel like not so much of a loser.

    You're awesome :)

    Everybody operates on the same principles.

    Love your optimism!

    I always manage to find things I forgot I wanted until suddenly I saw them again. :D

    Friend of mine told me tonight he has been taking meth (as a way to cope) and had a very bad reaction to it. I am glad he's alive and hope he's willing to get help

    An ugly cry in the shower and I’m good to go... :)

    I'm just an ugly crier no matter where I cry, but I prefer where others can't see the horror of my ugly cry. :blush::lol:
