Hungry or bored?

“Am I just eating because I’m bored?”

The Grinch summed it up nicely.

The sequence is supposed to be: hunger sensation, eat sustenance, then post food high.

But often times, at least in my experience, there’s a desire to eat without a feeling of hunger.

Maybe it’s a comfort thing?

Maybe it’s an addiction thing?

Either way it’s a subtle insight into the psychology or mindfulness of an individual.
