Emotional eating is when an individual eats in response to feelings such as anger, depression, sadness or happiness. Emotional eaters tend to consume excess food even when they are not physically hungry. Emotional eating can leave an individual feeling guilty afterward and it may eventually cause depression. To avoid emotional eating, it is important to recognize the behavior. Emotional eating is often in the form of cravings. An emotional eater will typically crave a particular type of food. One way to manage emotional eating is to choose healthy food options such as vegetables or fruit.
