Does anyone else get out of control with eating habits when stressed or worrying

Yes. Regularly. I recommend you read When food is Love or any other books front he same author. It opened my eyes a lot. It isn't about the food, it is about trying to avoid the pain of emotions.

I've improved a lot. I am better at noticing when I'm trying to escape.
