Stuffing

I am experiencing some uneasy feelings in my recent stuffing. In short, I feel unable to eat more when I am far from reaching my capacity, with a feeling of stomach contraction.

I used to enjoy a large stuffing appetite and can eat much and long in one sitting, up to swallowing 5kg food non-stop in 3 hours. But in recent stuffings, something strange happens.

I start to feel my stomach is contracting after eating quite "small" amount of food (about 1kg). I do not feel stuffed at all; I just feel my stomach is "closed", and have great difficulty swallowing down any food. When I reach that point, I feel anxious out of no reason, and sometimes feel nausea from that anxiety. I clearly feel my stomach muscle is squeezing food in spasm. That is not the feeling of natural vomit - I have experience of being fed to reflux - but clearly unusual muscle contraction. Usually this feeling will ease in 1 hour, then I feel empty, but when I try to eat something again, that contraction and anxiety feeling comes again. I have no gastronomial disease, and I do not eat irratant or excitatory food like hot peppers. I think I had such feelings much earlier, maybe in 2023, but it only becomes frequent and a real problem recently. I can't reach any real fullness or stuffed feeling, that quite upset me.

I really want to know how that happens and how should I do to avoid it.

being anxious kills your appetite and if its bad enough it can make you vomit, I know from experience

I put this into Chat GPT, the response is too long to post here but it’s worth you doing that to get an idea. I would give the stuffing a break for a few weeks to give your body time to reset.

One of the responses was - A protective response after extreme overeating history

If someone repeatedly eats far beyond normal physiological capacity (e.g., 5 kg), the body can eventually develop:
• A “shut-off” response
• Muscle guarding (tightening to prevent further distension)
• Anxiety as an automatic protective reflex

This can happen even before physical fullness, because the body becomes conditioned to avoid harm.

Hope this helps

Sending health responses from an ai slop language model doesn't help anyone. They could have done it themselves if they wanted a horrible answer

Dont ever, ever use AI for any kind of advice ever,

AI, is notorious for being wrong and/or giving dangerous, even deadly health advice, just don't.

That sounds distressing, I would definitely go to the doctor; I myself have no idea what that might be but if it is a health condition there are probably meds they can prescribe you for it!

Have you taken a long break since your last stuffing? I know from experience that if I don't eat a ton for a couple of months when I try eating again my capacity will be less than half of what it used to be before my stomach hurts and it'll take a couple of weeks before it gets back to where it was.

Beyond that it sounds like a mental thing to me. Stuffing is weird in that it's like a 50/50 physical ability and mental fortitude thing, especially with hot fatty foods.

It may not be what you want to hear, but I would listen to your body. It's trying to tell you that it's had enough food (for now). If you've been stuffing a lot lately then this is only to be expected. It's a reaction to your over eating, perhaps your body saying 'hey this isn't normal'.

This may be hard to do if you enjoy stuffing and want to put on weight, but there's no rush. Ease up for a bit and give your body a break, then when you feel you may be over it, start up again gradually increasing your food intake to give your body time to get used to it.

Thanks for all the above answers & helps.





I do not have a personal health assistant or so, if I go to a hospital, the doctor will 100% tell me "don't stuff then". That is not what I want...



Your first advice helps me. After regular exercising, regular diet and stuff cycle, my body fell much better and easier now.

As for the second advice, there is some mental thing. I constantly suffer from mild mental pressure in my daily challenging work. Normally it is mild/unharmful when I am at work and eased at holidays. I don't know whether it relate to the pressure/anxiety when I decide to pease myself and binge eat at holidays. My eat anxiety seems to come from nowhere, sometimes it makes me think of work or health issues but most times not.

The problem is mental doctors also tells me to stop occasional or emotional binge eating/stuffing. I have to find other ways to ovecome anxiety, like jogging and meditation.
