I do...I love chocolate cake so much and I really crave to have some especially when I'm sad and depressed. I don't know why. It's like a bestfriend to me...:) How 'bout you?

Hi, I will go for food when I feel depressed,so cake is one of the food I will look for. I like to eat cake ,but not much on chocolate cake. I prefer those cheesecake or other flavour cake except chocolate flavour. Maybe because I am not a chocolate lover. I feel more relax and refreshing after eating something when I get depressed, it is one of the way for me to get relax.

If I buy cakes, I buy rolls (the long ones), then share with my family. Sometimes, I go buy flavored bread (chocolate yum), burgers, hotdogs, chocolates. Anything that will satisfy my stomach. :)

I am different. When I am sad and depressed, I just lost my appetite and I don't want to eat anything. I love China

I love cake whether im sad or happy and i can consume a box of cake in one day. When a person is sad or depressed eating sweet food like cake will help you boost your happy thought. As individuals with certain personality styles find comfort eating chocolate improves their mood, such behaviour may reflect biological mechanisms which 'soothe' their personality-based capacity to experience emotional dysregulation.

In some situation, after I ate that my body and wallet would feel more depressed. Choose chocolate, those pure coca made of.

I do. Haha. Whenever I feel down, there's nothing more comforting (aside from my girlfriends touches) than a slab of chocolate and a slice of chocolate cake. I believe this is because chocolates give you light feelings of happiness which are very close to the feeling of love. Oh, and chocolates and chocolate cakes are aside from the other food that I eat whenever I'm sad and depressed. Like chips and ice cream.
