i eat less

personally...it depends on your regular diet...to me it seems that those who eat less on a regular basis eat more and those who eat a normal diet eat more....Personally....i eat more....only because it gives me something to do other than to feel bad.

I eat much less. I didn't even know that could happen, then one day, no appetite. I didn't eat for 24 hours.

Oh man, I remember one time, I was so depressed, I became physically ill.

Lots of people just stay in one place during this period of time. Not even getting dressed and stayiing in bed or just sitting looking at nothing. And not eating all day. This is so like normal looking at one of the biggest problems with depression. Eating is on the top of the list for sure. That is why I am surprised at myself, that I have changed into the reverse now. Every moment I am looking for something to munch on. Most of the time it is junk food. Chocolate covered donuts is usually first on my list then cinnamin rolls. Never anything substantial.

I eat lots more which is probably why i am very much over weight!
and eating when your depressed is like a nasty spiral down and down cause when im depessed i eat then i get more depressed because im fat, so i eat again and try to find comfort in food which never really works!!!

I eat way less when I'm depressed, I just sit around and stare at walls... I lost 7kg in 7 days once.

I eat more. Lots more.

if i do recall, when i was depressed i didnt seem to change my eating habits. but i did lose weight over it. weird

During my regular, every day depression, I'd eat way more. When winter comes around, though, when I used to be at my most severe, I'd have no appetite. I remember times that I wouldn't go to the bathroom for days at a time because I wasn't putting enough into my body.

i eat a lot less

I usually have little to no appetite but still end up eating more and it is usually junk food.... then I feel even worst.
