I love discussing issues with you. You make me think.
The difference is, it is possible to receive comfort without the pain going away.
I'm sad, I sob, I eat cookies - that's a hug for comfort, I still sob.
I'm sad, I sob, I drink 1/4 bottle of Jack Daniels, I wake up in Saskatchewan, surrounded my new 'friends'.
I'm not convinced that pain is "avoided" by carb eating, in the same way it is avoided in other addictions that are more physically altering. But I do recognize that there is a comfort element.
PS, I don't eat cookies or drink Jack Daniels - just for clarification in case anyone reading this isn't sure
