“Emotional eating” vs dysregulated and disorde

“Emotional eating” vs dysregulated and disordered eating.

Eating IS emotional for most people (see our previous post). Emotional eating isn’t the problem diet culture makes it out to be. The issue when you feel like food is being used “emotionally” is dysregulation and/or disordered eating behaviours.

Helping our clients to better understand their food relationships and drivers of disordered eating behaviours can help with healing through curiosity and connectedness.

For those who identify as an “emotional eater”

For those who identify as an “emotional eater” - eating IS Emotional and should not be pathologized. Diet culture loves to make people worry and feel guilty about using food “emotionally”🙄

Consider the following:

Recipes can remind people of loved ones and favourite memories;

We gather to eat for times of celebration (e.g. birthdays) and times of sadness (e.g. funerals);

Eating often impacts pleasure centres in the brain. This triggers dopamine. Without a dopamine response, there would be zero interest in food. This response helps to keep people alive.

When people experience sadness or stress, cortisol can rise. Behaviours that can calm cortisol include: crying, physical movement, and eating carbohydrates.

It makes sense that eating can be emotional. It’s not the problem diet culture makes it out to be.

Diet culture’s version of health is reductive, ever-changing, chases impossible body ideals, constantly moves the goal posts, and even gaslights those most invested in it.

What does a non-diet version of well-being look like for you?

- Feel pressure to change their size or shape, leading to dieting and disordered behaviours, and poor body image;
