You cannot use food to settle your emotional problem, you cannot use the food and make a deal with your emotion, sometimes you need to set your plates backward to settle your emotional issues. Don’t let the devil fool you with the thinking that drinking excessive alcohol or eating without control will change your situation or anything that is going on around you, it can only complicate your issue by destroying your own body. Patience Johnson
About This Quote

Eating and drinking excess alcohol or eating without any purpose will only complicate your issue. Alcohol and food are a great source of comfort but they should never be used as a way to sooth your emotions. If you need to use alcohol or food to help you through a difficult time, then you need to take a step back and evaluate your situation from a different perspective. If you are constantly drinking or overeating, then it is clear that something very serious is going on in your life.

In order for you to be able to make better choices, the first thing that needs to happen is for you to recognize what is going on. You need to recognize that there is a problem and that the problem may not be what you think it is. As a result, you need to find yourself an expert, someone who can help guide you through this process of evaluation so that you can come out of this indescribable pain with some form of relief.
