More on food and me
by tamarjacobson
Okay. I get it.
My relationship with food is indicative of my relationship with me.
Most of the time I use food to numb myself out of feeling the tough stuff.
In other words – I bolt!
Yes indeed.
Food is my drug of choice.
What intrigues me the most lately is that after I have identified an emotion, difficult or otherwise, and if I allow myself to hold still with it, my hunger dissipates.
It seems like for the first time, I am learning the difference [or is it the connection?] between physical hunger and emotional discomfort.

I will share my experience. Two years ago I had to go to the Employee Assistant Program, since I had a really hard situation in my home. They treated me great and offered me a lot of psychological help. Thank you!
We would certainly want to have some slack in the food system so that unexpected drops in production in a particular region can be compensated by production from other regions.
