Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...

So about a week or two ago (I think i even made a post about this) I had allergies which caused post nasal drip.. It was disgusting and it made me feel icky all the time, When i ate it made it worse because it was dragging more mucus with it.. anyway the problem lies outside of that.. I kept getting gas from eating too fast or overeating, I'm still not sure which one, probably both... I was thinking about it for a while and i realized that I didn't know when to stop eating, i ate way too fast.. I got control of that for the most part, I think it was a throwback to when I didn't have that much food in the house.. So i thought I would catch up to what I missed when i was without.. Hence the overindulging..
Anyway, it got better in the past week and I've been controlling how fast/much I eat now .. I take breaks, I don't scarf things down.. This weekend was quiet and peaceful but then something happened to make me really mad and tonight I scarfed down a burrito and a half.. i wasn't even hungry! I just ate it.. . I know people can eat out of boredom or stress But i don't feel particularly stressed... i mean, I'm pissed at some of my friends but i don't know if it would be bad enough to cause stress overeating.. Maybe my anger coupled with my anxiety and everything else is causing this ... But can this happen without me realizing it? I mean, i used to be stressed/emotional and stuff in the past and i never had a problem with eating too fast, emotional eating, stress eating or overeating... Whats changed? Has this happened to anyone else and how to combat it?

I did the dumbest thing today. I charged my earbuds, unplugged the block and put the block in my little bag instead of the earbuds. I wasn't happy about that when I got to the gym. What a dummy!

I can not think of another way to describe it, that's the closest I have been able to describe it.
Best wishes!
