I know how you feel. There have been times with my depression where I seriously go the whole day with food going in my mouth. And I can't stop. It has helped me to understand the different kinds of emotional eating and the different ways we use food to cope. It's not just as simple as calling it emotional eating. It's more complex than that. And it's not as simple as keeping a food log or dieting. I have had to understand the different emotional connections I have to food and how to rewire my brain to be okay without that comfort and find comfort elsewhere.
