It's Like Alcoholism,

It's Like Alcoholism
ANXIETY, not so much over out
ward danger as of inner origin,
produces nervous tension. Many
people, trying to get rid of this
inner nervous tension and its ac-
companying feeling of discomfort
and distress, will take cigarette.
Others may reach for drink. But
some will begin eating.
The newer knowledge of the
mind and the part it plays in the
condition of the body is a factor
which the overweight individual
needs to consider. Is he eating
more than he needs to COM
pensate for some inner priva-
ton or Illustration? If so, then
obesity is in the same class with
alcoholism. The most advanced
thinking on alcoholism is that it is
"only the visible symptom of seri-
Gus emotional disturbance"
From infancy on, food is mixed
with emotions, says DR.. Leland E.
Hinsie, of Columbia University.
"Often the gastro-intestinal system
is the pre-eminent bond that holds
mother and child together. A moth
er who does not really love her child
may pamper his alimentary canal
as she does her own. He is merely
a projection of her troubles"
Food and Emotion
| KNOW two overweight children.
David has self-centered parents
who do not care for him and have
as little to do with him as possible.
He feels himself rejected and un-
loved and reacts by stuffng him
self. A vicious circle has been
started. The other boy, Johnny.
is from a poor family, in which the
good things of life are not plen-
tiful. Paradoxically, that situation
has made him fat. Competition for
food is keen, and Johnny has al
ways striven hard to get as much
as he possibly could.
As for the future, David and
Johnny can probably antici-
pate fat adulthoods. We tend to
revert to earlier behavior patterns,
particularly when our emotions
are disturbed. Pleasure to such
unhappy adults frequently is re-
stricted to the joy of eating Appe-
tite control, as people of normal
weight know it, is lost and only a
feeling of fullness, close to discom-
fort, makes them leave the table.
The late Charles William Eliot,
famed "Five-Foot Shelf" originator
and ex president of Harvard, once
wrote an essay on The Durable
Satisfactions of Life" He asked
his cousin, Grace Norton, very
old lady: What do you regard as
among the more durable salts
factions?"
Without a moments hesitation
or thought she answered: my Wet

Myerson say that overeating is so
much a part of the personality of
obese people that "the reflex of
satisfied appetite is lost and these
people continue to eat as source
ofnervous energy release" In their
study of overeating the two doc
tors found that many of these
individuals were depressed and
fatigued directly after eating. when
theoretically their energy should
be the greatest.
"Overeating may result from
a psychological drive" says DR..
Windsor Cooper Cutting. The habit
of overeating may be one form OF
feeding the ego" for frustrated
individual who cannot find graft
fcation in any of the other sensual
appetites. This, DR.. Cutting feels.
is frequently the starting point for
the overweight person.
