>>12347697Eating doesn't sound like a good idea, since even if it's "healthy" food like rice crackers or cucumbers, it makes you associate trying to escape sadness or stress with having to chew on something, which might lead to eating other stuff, like cookies or bacon, which can make you gain loads of weight and suffer from severe health issues like cholesterol and diabetes.
It's probably a less of an unhealthy idea to have something like a special comfort pillow to hug only when you're in a really tense situation, and to put away as soon as you don't feel like that anymore.
