Stress & Food

[Nebulous's iconNebulous]

1) When Im stressed, I dont want to eat. If I do eat something, its just enough to avoid hunger pains. Ive been really stressed lately and I have not been very hungry or eating a whole lot because of it.



2) Then there is people who, when they get stressed, they I want to eat anything and everything until they just about explode.



So which are you?

I guess I'm sorta like you. If I'm stressed, I can't even look at food...it'll even make me feel sick. XD

Depends. If I have a project that is due tomorrow that I've had a month to work on and I'm just starting it the night before, I'll skip eating, so option 1. If I have math homework or something, I'll do option 2 and eat and keep eating so I keep procrastinating so I don't have to do my work till later.

Okay, yeah, I said this yesterday.

I made myself sick this morning.

I hate being stressed. D:

 

[MysticSky]

I eat when stressed.

Choco icecream is my fave to dig into =O

 

[Raven]

Don't eat, just drink more.

 

[McConnaughay]

I am a major stress eater

 

[MrMetroid]

I'd say number 1. I instead drink Irn Bru

hmmmmmmmmmm that's a good question!



stress does cause us to become either obsessed with food or no food at all.



I usually eat chocolate if I'm depressed, the stimulants in it makes you feel better.



its called comfort food.

I don't eat when I'm stressed. Like Madyy I feel sick at even the sight of food, or thought of it really.



When I'm depressed I also tend to skip over food, although when I do eat I tend to have teh all powerful comfort food. XD

I haven't ever really thought about this before. Most of the time when I'm stressed I like to talk about it to others, which makes them stressed too haha. Wouldn't really say I eat a lot though, but then again I'm not one to get stressed very easily, so could be wrong haha. I am a big time ventor though.

If I'm stressed, I usually eat less. I don't think I binge eat.

If I'm stressed, I eat loads of stuff--but most of the time, I don't remember doing it. It's like I go on automatic pilot or something.....I've fixed coffee and drank a whole pot, but didn't remember it. I've made something to eat, then didn't remember eating it, just looked down and the plate was empty....
