It is a generally expected conviction that you are eating for solace, assuming you indulge or gorge. While that might be valid for some, through my experience, I think many individuals eat to rebuff themselves.Â
It is exceptionally typical to utilize food or drink to assist you with feeling better following a monotonous day, when something has turned out badly or, on the other hand, on the off chance that you need perking up.
Food tastes tasty, and it doesn’t pass judgment on you for whatever occurred and keeping in mind that you are eating it, it can cause you to feel astonishing.
The issue is, you are utilizing nourishment for something that wasn’t intended. You will probably eat when you are not ravenous and use food to control how you feel. Â
The inquiry is, the point at which you do this, would you say you utilize food as a type of solace or discipline? Â
On the off chance that the eating experience gave you solace, you would feel better a short time later, right? You would feel support, more joyful and good!
So let us ponder this – how would you feel when you have gone after a subsequent chocolate bar, returned for quite a long time or thirds because your day has been trash and you ‘merit it’, or when you drive out of your approach to get one more jug of wine to help you ‘feel better’ following a terrible day?! Â
On the off chance that the fallout leaves you feeling remorseful, baffled or with some self-loathing, has it indeed furnished you with the solace you were expecting? Â
I accept that on the off chance that you feel awful previously, during or after eating or get a transitory feeling of fulfilment followed by some regrettable discussion in your mind.
Like ‘for what reason did I simply eat that?’ then, at that point, you will probably utilize food as a type of discipline instead of comfort. Does that seem like you? Â
It’s alright; this is undeniably more normal than you understand, and you’re not troubled, dumb or odd for doing it!
You have only figured out utilizing food (or drink) as your default method for dealing with stress amid hardship. Â
Anyway, what do you have to do? You need to track down another method for dealing with stress that isn’t as harmful, just as to chip away at how you think when you want to utilize food or drink for some unacceptable reasons.Â
