[QUOTE=Melmo;4952687]I googled it because I have had a problem with food for about 5 years now, apparently there is a correlation between bipolar disorder and overeating sugar. I eat way too much sugary food usually when I'm stressed out or angry but even when I'm calm or happy. I just crave it. But it's not just sugar, it's carbs, I just love to eat large amounts of carb laden foods. Has anyone dealt with this?
Yes, it has to do with bipolar. And age. It won't get better.
In my case, it's the sugar. A bowl of pasta won't do.
Worst problem I have now is the eating binges at night. 2 or 3AM.
It's due to the meds.
Other bipolar favorite is peanut butter. I buy it natural.
Since it's a little coarse, I add Wildflowers honey. Not recommended.
Unless you are very underweight.
