I got this thing thats really winding me up at the minute and I wonder if any other forummers can sympathise...

If you know somethings there you just cant leave it be? For example, gaffer at work has bought in a load of chocs becuase its his bday. Content with just one? Oh no, every time I walk past the desk the urge is there to have another. Not because I'm hungry or owt but simply BECAUSE THEY ARE THERE!!!!!

Its driving me crazy. I do it with booze lying round the house as well (in fact I've stopped getting booze when I go shopping cos I know what I'm like).

Anyone else get this?

You are not alone. If it's there and open.....i'll nibble constantly.

Chocolates, yes.

I've quite a reputation at work of doing this, and am usually the last to be notified when it's someone's birthday :|

However, I do it because I like the taste of chocolate, whereas you appear to have an OCD :D

Well I think I'm off to wash my hands for the 15th time today

<twitch twitch> :D

What was your childhood like? Was there much sibling rivalry?

For instance, if you saw some ice cream in the freezer, would you still eat it even though you're not hungry, because you know that by the time you are hungry, you older or little brother will have gotten there first :rant:

D'ya know I ve heard of worse ideas.

I was thinking not having a job where I'm sat on my arse all day in front of a computer might be the solution...but that would probly mean a pay cut and I'm a materialistic sod at heart.

Other than that maybe hypnotherapy.......

Oh no I am like this too. If I know we have something nice I'll eat it whether I'm hungry or not. I am so greedy. :( :loopy:
