eating out of anger
I realized today that one of the many emotions I use to justify eating is anger. I spend all day with 30 4th graders, a horrible principal, and then come home to my own 2 small kids and all I want to do is scream. Nobody leaves me alone and I get very angry about it. When I feel this way, I want to stuff my face, with anything in sight, all night long. A definite binge. My kids scream at each other, and are very clingy with me. I get so mad at them at times, and then I'm mad at myself for not being a better mother. It's a vicious cycle and I can't get out of it.
Do any of you experience this kind of binge eating? I need a vacation!
