Just for fun.
Sometimes people talk about “eating our sessions.” Is there a specific food you turn to after a session for comfort or recovery or reward? Cake, ice cream, etc. What is it? Me? Egg bagel with peanut butter. |

I typically lose my appetite bc of the emotional intensity of therapy.

I often turn to food to fill the void. Nothing else seems to work quite as well in five minute increments. I can eat a whole packet of mints in one sitting, which probably isn't good for me, but I also have chilli cashew nuts on hand.

Now my therapy appointments are late like 6:30 or 7 PM so I have eaten beforehand. When I used to have morning appointments I would sometimes have Japanese afterwards. Kit

When I was in therapy.. I used to eat fast food after every session. I labeled it French Fry Tuesday because my sessions were on Tuesdays.

I used to grab a cupcake and sugar-y coffee from Starbucks.... now I'm trying to eat healthier so I eat fruit. Blech. I can't eat before though so I'm usually starving when I get done.

I'm not much of an emotional eater, particularly the older I get. Just don't eat like I used to.

I can't turn to food for therapy, because I am a food addict. No statement made about anybody else here. I'm only talking about me.

Usually by the end of a session I have completely lost my appetite, which lasts for a couple days.
A few days later, I eat a pint of ice cream. Which evens things out, I suppose. __________________ Since you cannot do good to all, you are to pay special attention to those who, by accidents of time, or place, or circumstance, are brought into closer connection with you. (St. Augustine) |

I eat dinner after session. Usually we go out because I'm too emotionally exhausted to cook. But I don't eat my sessions away.

I was usually in a state of self-destructive frustration and homicidal anger when I left. Eating was not my go to.
