Do you feel your compulsive eating is related to adhd?

I thought this about myself (not diagnosed)
I think I overeat when I'm not mentally stimulated.
Can anyone else relate to this?

Looks like it’s a thing: add.org/adhd-and-binge-eating/

Can’t relate to the boredom binge thing exactly, but I do procrastin-eat when I have things to do, and for comfort, and when I’ve not planned/eaten lunch or breakfast, and… argh it’s quite messed up when I write it all down. The dopamine hit makes sense to me.
