When I was bulimic I used to binge on carbs simply because they made me feel good temporarily. Kinda like a feel good drug.
I have wondered if it’s a form of self medicating like smoking is for many of us.
I also know a lot of people in AA and programs like that and many of talked about how a lot of recovering addicts eat a lot of candy and things like that and drink a lot of coffee early on in their recovery. That’s one of the reasons many gain weight. It seems to help them.
I know there’s some science behind why some types of drug addicts turn to sugar but I can’t recall it off the top of my head. I’ve never read anything about schizophrenics using sugar but I agree with you. I feel like there has to be a reason.

I’ve found I do much better if I follow a very healthy diet, but it’s so hard to stick to long term. I just can’t seem to do it some days.
