Feeling bad for food?

Okay, is it normal for me to feel sympathy towards the food I'm eating/about to eat? For example, I had two cookies, ate the first one and then felt so bad eating the secound (it just saw me eat the cookie it had stayed with all that time...) I almost couldn't do it! Come Easter time I have to warn everyone not to get me or eat chocolate animals around me. Animal shaped food (pastries, cookies, etc.) makes me cry, am I normal? :'(

    Well I don't think that is normal because cookies were never living.I don't really think eating anything matters alsong is its not stuff you shouldn't eat and your not cannibal.

    WOW . . . are you pregnant??? I don't think it's normal, but I did go through something kiiiinda similar. When I was preggie for my first, I went into the printer room at work and there was a printer sitting there that no one ever used. I felt so sad for it and it made me cry.

    Nope, not normal. I've heard of people feeling bad for eating meat, but not cookies. Sorry.

    Sort of, yes. But everything you eat is "dead" in a sense. I do think you should see a therapist, though. Don't take any pills.

    HAHAHAHA. I feel sympathy for inanimant objects all the time. Like, I can't admit an inanimant object is ugly or crappy, or poorly built. I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE. omgomgomg

  • It's totally normal to feel this way about food. Alot of people feel bad about eating junk food but what we don't realize is eating should be for hunger and not for pleasure. That's why alot of people feel guilty, because eating for pleasure is usually done while bored or sad. Don't feel guilty eating because that guilt is u realizing the fact that u r covering boredom or emotions with food without dealing with the problem.
