| Greetings!
Stress happens to everyone. Emotional eating means that you find comfort from eating, and that you eat during times of stress. How do we manage this?
Can it happen to you??

Stess Management and
Emotional Eating: What to Do???
|
Stress: How does it happen?
Lose a job, Your work supervisor is mean and angry
Your spouse doesn't understand you. You argue constantly
Your children are having trouble with drugs, bad friends, school
You have enormous debt and credit cards
You have unexpected expenses from repairs or healthcare issues
What are you going to do???
Drugs: antidepressants work, but don't necessarily solve the cause of the stress.
Alcohol: not a good way to manage stress
Counseling: Seeing a specialist to talk about the issues can help. This can sometimes actually get to the Bottom Cause (spouse, family, employer, etc.)
Church counselor: can help deal with the Cause. May help you deal with the response to the Stress.
Food: Emotional eating is very common. Eating gives pleasure.
 | | How To Overcome Emotional Eating |
The key is to recognize your tendency to eat during times of stress.
The second key is to find alternative ways to deal with the stress.
