RE: 8 Signs of Emotional Overeating

When I'm stressed, I keep telling myself I need to eat, I need to eat!  Before any task, I feel like if I eat, then I won't have to worry about cravings while I'm trying to get stuff done.  It sucks, but food has always been a comfort to me.

I'm more of a compulsive gambler, if someone asks me, I'm there!  I wonder, is the list in any particular order or are they all bad?

Yes I feel the same way, I can relate to someone more when I have something in common with them and especially if I already look up to them.

Sometimes my daughter will be in the same room with one of her friends and they will text back and fourth!  I'm like Helloo... I'm paying for those texts, stop that!

A large percent of people who buy off these sites really do have a medical condition which is very painful and some doctors are reluctant to give their patients extra medicine.  But wouldn't most people who use pills for recreational use just buy them off of a drug dealer?

It's not about wanting to quit, it's that it gets to the point where they need to quit: tuberculosis, cancer, giving asthma for your kids, it gets critical and then they realize how addicted they are.

Sparks, its like Rockstar with alcohol.  There's famous rappers and musicians coming out with energy drinks specifically marketed to their fans.  And it's becoming way popular to just mix them yourself.
