Eating when you're sad. Many do it, few admit it. Notice how in all too many a romantic comedy, the female protagonist turns to her friends and a pint of Ben & Jerry's post breakup? Yeah. Tons of women do it but I know of a lot of men who do it too, so don't go saying it's strictly a female thing.
I'll admit that I am guilty of this. I'm already handling the aftermath of leaving my abusive ex-partner, then recently the BS I have to face at work is coming to a head, and just the other day, my mother and her boyfriend of 1 year had broken up. I was also very saddened by this, since I really approved of the guy.
Now, I'm only equipped to handle 1 emotional clusterfuck at a time, and all these are swooping up and hitting me upside the face at once, getting to a point where I just shut down into one giant crying jag with a case of the muchies. And it having been post-turkey day, yeah. Bad day to eat your feelings.
