A member asked:
What causes emotional eating? what is the neurological/psychological connection that reinforces it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Eating disorders: damage quality of life and can even kill. Please seek appropriate treatment from a specialist in this area. Start w/family doc for a referral. Emotional eating is theoretically tied in w/emotional pain that is being blocked to some degree by eating. Long term it doesn't work and makes things worse. Peace and good health.
