I read this article and thought it was a joke at first. I think sleepwalking would be funny to witness but this takes the cake. I do not know what would trigger waking up and binge eating a bunch of food. Maybe these people need to eat more during the day. How weird would that be to wake up to a bed full of crumbs from a cake that you cannot remember eating and a black eye from walking into the fridge door? I would be so pissed if I was a sleep-eater. I would be eating this delicious food but not be able to fully enjoy it. What's to blame? My guess is all the chemicals we put into our bodies from the food we eat to the pills and medication we take. Here is the article from the New York Times
This is weird. I've heard about sleep walking before and people really don't remember anything they do. Sometimes they even talk to others and then don't remember telling them all the things they said. It's so weird. I know I would never want this to happen to me.
ReplyDeleteThis disorder would be really lame to have. People can't even enjoy their food. They would have to do extra cleaning, spending more money, and weird eating habits. It could potentially be a huge health problem for the individuals. To me this seems more like a psychological issues. Same sort of disorders like over eaters, binge eaters, emotional eaters, etc. It just seems more like a eating disorder rather than an after affect.
