If you're listening in to your body, you will find that hunger symptoms are very very much like anxiety symptoms. You might remember back to last year, when you were hungry but not anxious. You could go hours being hungry, but it never crossed over into anxiety and you could dismiss it at will. The problem is when it crosses over into anxiety and you can't just dismiss it.

Thus, BTW, one way for an ordinary human being to get fat. If you eat to avoid hunger because hunger seems like anxiety, pretty soon you are large.

Did I say you, I meant me.
