I cannot stop eating

I am not sure if this is a problem of depression, but I don't have any other idea about my problem.

About 5 years ago, I broke with my boy friend, the beginning I felt so good, you know, the feeling of freedom back! I don't know the thing happened later has relation with the break or not.

In this 5 years-up till now, every time when I meet something unhappy, I feel want to eat. While the same time I wanna keep my body's shape. So I was about to be mad. I think I have some problem with my mental, but I don't want to see the doctor, you know, they will tell you it is ok and then give you some pills, that is all!

Oh, I even cannot describe my problem well! I become more and more nonconfident. I don't wanna meet with people most of the time. I am afriad to get any close relationship......

But at any moment, I know the feeling is exactly of my own, I am so clear that no one can help me, even I really want a person to help me.

I always ask myself, how other people get satisfied with their life? How can a person get excited so naturally? How can he just show his feeling? I cannot, I usually hide my emotions, I always try to smile to everybody, even sometimes I get hurt in my heart. I hide them all! I am afraid to show my weakness,... ...

I am curious how you think. Just tell me, even a word!

Hi Hobgoblin! When something upsets me, I find that eating calms the knot in my stomach. Also, I believe that food boosts your serotonin levels and this makes you feel better for a short while but there is the problem with putting on weight which is something that could worry you. I try to have a big drink of water or a smoothie, as it will fill you up,then brush your teeth as it makes your mouth feel nice and clean so you don't want to eat something. Try and get your serotonin boost from somewhere else like the gym. I go almost every day, sometimes for an hour or two and sometimes only half an hour but it definitely helps .

Thanks Nic! :D
I begun to go to gym again one month ago. I found I like it much than last summer. I am planning to do more sports on weekends, cuz I can only go to gym on weekedays.

I dont know if things can be changed.

Right now, i am having one of those days. I feel very tired, useless and too full to eat again ( i just had a plate of pasta, even though i was not hungry). Also, i cancelled my night out with my friend, just because i don't feel like. browsing various websites aimlessly, because of my lack of concentration i can't even finish one page article. It's crazy how i feel now and the other days.

sorry, i can't carry on, i think i should go to bed, and try to sleep
