Does anyone else eat when they're angry? I've found myself wanting to just eat! Sometimes something particular crunchy. I guess I know what the old saying, "I just want to eat nails!" means! I know I want to eat when I feel stress or feel sorry for myself. Guess I'm just an emotional eater!

I read something somewhere once that if you weren't sure what kind of mood you were in, just analyze what you want to eat. If it's ice cream or something soft,it was because you are feeling sorry for yourself and need comfort. If it was chips or something hard, you're angry, etc. About that time I thought, "But, what if you just want to eat everything in sight?"

    Yes I do, when I am mad I want chocolate, sorry for myself, chocolate. For all around comfort food I like macaroni and cheese.
