Many people choose food to help them deal with stressful situations. But relying on food could be helpful? Of course not; it could be acceptable when it is done for some time and not always.

Frequently stress eating can have negative impacts.

Unfortunately, emotional eating doesn’t fix emotional problems. Instead, it usually makes you feel worse. Afterwards, the original emotional issue remains, and you also feel guilty for overeating.

After the emotional danger has passed, there is usually a sense of guilt and remorse after realising too much food has been eaten. But unfortunately, this guilt also can lead to more emotional eating outbursts or low self-esteem, resulting in a vicious circle.
