when I am angry sometimes, I really feel like eating a lot. I don't know why but it happens even if I have just eaten an hour ago. But don't think that I get angry so often, I am cool most of the time:-) Do you have the same habit, you feel like eating something when you are angry?

My eating doesn't depend on anger, matrixx!. I eat when i feel like eating and It may happen while I am angry, so sometimes I eat when I am angry and sometimes I don't. But usually when I am angry my hunger runs away and I don't feel like eating as such. It all depends on hormones and how they interact with our physiology. It is possible that for one this interaction is different than for other. After all we have a lot of variety in other areas too:-) I too, try to be cool most of the time and succeed in it. In fact I rarely get angry. Life is too short to waste in anger:-)

I usually do not eat when I am very angry,because I know that after eating I can not digest,then it will hurt my body,so most of the time,when I am in fury,I do not eat anything.

you have a point there angela2006. One should be cautious about health, though anger itself is bad, lol. nice to have your comment.

That is a strange thing to hear. I have heard people saying that they dont eat when they are angry but you are totally opposite. Anyway, even if i feel angry, i eat. I feel like not eating but then i force myself and eat. It is because we earn to eat and i feel that it is wrong to show our anger on the food.

Lol, yeah It might be strange. Why do you force yourself to eat? it's not good for health, i think. Thanks :-)
