There has been a period in my life when I was experiencing big amounts of stress every day. Since that time I have beed addicted to eating junk food. I cannot spend I single day without going to the store and buying chips, procecced foods, multiple energy drinks, etc.The biggest problem is not even that it is bad for my health or makes me feel unwell (I'm not even overweight), but that I spend hell ton of money on all of this. I'm currently in education, and the money that I'm given is not enough, so I'm forced to spend my own savings, and it's absolutely depressing how much I lost already due to buying this garbage.The reason why I can't start eating normally is not because I can't cook or anything. I feel like eating this food has become a way for my body and mind to recover after an exhausting day of studying and dealing with people.help me this is so stupid
>>34550688Step one is make a budget and track how much you spend so that this shames you into buying less. Step two is reducing consumption in degrees, give yourself an allowed amount each day and have that amount decrease over time. Your body should crave it less over time
>>34550699True, could be a good idea to try to decrease it gradually
>>34550688Find a cheaper outlet to destress. Maybe healthy food if you need something in your mouth.
Learn to cook I guess? Anything tastes better than goyslop as long as it's prepped well enough, even better, you'll develop a new skill.maybe try and go on youtube and look up simple recipes you can follow along like a greek salad or beetroot stew and then go up from there. You can do this anon.

I'm a land whale and this is how I started. PLEASE STOP. You're going to become addicted to food and then you'll start eating more often to control your mood. Then you'll start binging on rare occasions. Then more often. And so on. QUIT. Go to the school therapist if you have to.
