I try to eat to be happy

Hi, when im in really low mood, I eat icecream and cream and chocolate and dried fruit, or sugary stuff, or I just eat basically anything to try to be happier.  How do I deal with my problems when they are too painful?

I cant do regular chores easily, i have to push myself. everything has just fallen apart ad I cant put it back into order.

I think ppl eat for comfort, and they eat to feel full too. I dunno I just feel very guilty sometimes eating things if they are not supposed to be healthy, like icecream . But at the same time it feels so relieving, it's like being loved, like being able to spoil yourself. Because otherwise I'm strict and hard on myself alot

I think I eat those type of foods only if I'm watching Tv...I notice that I speed through the credits just to ready to eat when the movie start....They I just lay down and watch the rest..............People say they eat because of stress I eat because I like to eat when watching Tv...Last night I wrote an E-mail to my barbaric phys  she knew nothing about me....only what she read in the report...............I told her that is ok......I felt a little uneasy today...They came up with more lies to cover there own behind...
