I've had this problem for years. I get up in the middle of the night and I feast on food. Usually I don't remember doing it, or I have some small recollection of the action, but all I know is that I can stuff 8 donuts in my mouth without waking up.
I have woken up in the morning with my bed full of crumbs. Once I woke up with a mouth full of chewed yet unswallowerd Oreo's.
I used to think this problem was the Munchies since I smoked so much pot, but since I quit several years ago the problem has not abated.
The downside of doing this is the mess, the unknowing, and today its the horrible stomach ache.
So I am not sure what to do about this issue. Maybe eat more during the day. Maybe lock up my food.
Whatever it is I would like it to stop.
Dr. Teeth can't afford to feel like he does at this moment of writing.
