The truth is: There is a difference between emotional hunger and normal hunger. Emotional hunger is when you find yourself craving food when you’re feeling down or otherwise upset.   

Many people have different comfort foods, but it all falls under the same umbrella of emotional eating. It is common practice among people to race to grab their comfort food many times a week just to suppress their internal struggles and soothe their life problems. Not only that, such behavior when repeated can also lead to guilty and embarrassed feelings, which can lead to an endless cycle of overeating and associated issues that follow, like poor mental health and weight gain.   

What causes emotional eating? Emotional eating can stem from a large number of factors, from work stress to financial worries, health issues and even, in some cases, troubles related to your relationship may have you looking for a pastry in the middle of the night. Although, it is a struggle shared by both the genders, statistics indicate that it is more common among women than among men. But why do we eat when we feel down? Many times, negative emotions lead to absurd and unexpected feelings of emptiness. When that happens, people turn to their favorite food in order to fill that empty void, therefore cheating by creating a false feeling "fullness".  

Some other reasons include: 

• Not understanding the difference between emotional and physical hunger
• Responding to stress through patterns that include eating  
• Retreating from social events when you are feeling down and then stuffing yourself with feed to not think about the emptiness that follows
