You may be frightened to grieve so eat and drink to suppress your feelings
The question During Covid, my husband was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Before he died we had a year together, which was wonderful. He managed to design a bungalow for me as, due to my mobility problems, I couldn’t continue to live in our home of 45 years. The bungalow has now been built in part of our old garden. I am delighted with the whole project. I moved in this year. I sold our old home to friends and having them living in my old house has been very successful. You may ask, what’s the problem? Everything is fine, and it is, except for one thing.
Three months ago, for no apparent reason, I had a day when I just ate and ate and drank and drank. This is totally out of character. I have a healthy diet and only drink socially and then never more than a glass or two.
