Comfort eating. Before I got adhd meds I had zero impulse control, so I'd eat nothing or eat everything. I would be 75% through a giant bag of snacks, and I'd be actively not enjoying them and wanting to stop, but I just couldn't. I'd stop and put them away and ten seconds later I'd be back eating, even though I was feeling sick and gross.
On meds, that's stopped and I've realised that my craving for snacks is all about comfort, stimulus, and self regulation, and nothing to do with hunger. But even knowing that, I struggle to bother with other harder but healthier ways of stimulating and relaxing, when I could just eat crackers with thick slabs of salty butter, or alternate between dark chocolate and salty peanuts. It's not the worst, but I'm very conscious of that it's not really about the food and so it feels like a lot of empty calories just to chill me out a little.
