My experiences are the contrary. No problem with the world around me,
just the inside, which seems to be continuously hungry. If I avoid eating
in the morning I can wait till lunch, but at that time my hunger is
terrible.  As soon as I start eating, I can't stop. It feels like if
someone should try to stop me from eating, I would get violent. And the
food should be dense: meat fat, fruit, nuts. Lettuce is nothing.
