When you are sad, do you eat chocolate to make you feel better? Have a cup of coffee, or a bite to eat? What foods help you?

I eat everything in sight when I get depressed.  Then I get more depressed because I ate too much junk.

None, my emotional state has nothing to do with my diet at all. Somehow I think that is a problem for a lot of people just to occupy themselves when things don't happen as they would like in their lives.

I am the opposite of most people, when I am depressed/stressed the first thing to go for me is food, just do not want. I try and compensate by drinking a lot of liquids, especially protein drinks.

Caffeine combined with sugar; a Hershey bar with almonds, a Pepsi throwback or a cup of coffee with cream and sugar.   They all trigger my serotonin and help me emotionally.

Have a great day!

When I'm depressed or upset I look for something to pick at that's usually sweet like m&m's or cookies or some other chocolate candy.

Lately I haven't been eating due to depression. But a feel good meal for me is Wendy's chicken nuggets and french fries dipped in their chocolate frosty. Always cheers me up.

I don't eat when I am depressed. I sleep and cry.

I got to do something else besides food because I do the binge-thing, potato chips, etc.... not a good end to it.

When I am depressed, I eat any and everything which has caused me to gain a lot of weight.
