Crying time, and now I'm hungry--why?
So it's been a weepy couple of days--talking a friend through euthanizing her dog; co-worker's husband dying. Ugly, but life on life's terms, and that's why we cry. But now I'm hungry--it's real hunger, stomach growling stuff, not a craving for comfort food.
However, I really "shouldn't" be hungry, based on what I've eaten today and how active I haven't been.
so what's the mechanism that makes us hungry after we cry? I remember a woman who ran a halfway house for women saying their grocery bills were enormous from the crying jags. Can't say I ever pondered it before; I used to just eat. But now I'm curious.
Any info? thx
