I Eat When I Am Lonely Or Depressed

I Do It To Stay Quiet

By: UmbraEyes
Written on February 9th, 2013
When i'm depressed i will open up all the cupboards and find the most unhealthy sugary things and literally just eat one after the other.
I eat so much when im depressed because instead of crying, instead of thinking about everything that is going wrong i think of the food. 
My stuffed mouth makes me unable to cry or anything, its my comfort food its what prevents me from breaking down. 
Plus no one asks me questions, they are just happy i have a big appetite when i normally dont really and am a total food freak, so then they are just happy seeing me let go for a bit. No one can ask my whats wrong, nor can i answer them because my mouth is full.

    Wow, that one try help. It nice talk n have somelisten. When we talk, feel down, there is a need for somethin. Left undone it worstin . U seem to find a way to express urself that the need that wanted to be express. Someone notice u and ur feelings. That is a inborn tendercy we all have and need to be filled. Keep it keep letting others know how u feel n u shall always be notice n heard. I pray u keep talking here or with others. The key to over coming ur other choice. Stay strong positive n health good , keep all things in moderation, prosper good health n a beautiful u.
