Different people react to depression in different ways. Some people lose their appetite, while others eat more. The reason for this is that different parts of the brain control appetite variation in depressed patients. Depression-related decreases in eating are associated with hypoactivation of min-insula areas of the brain that controls the body’s physiological state. Depression-related increases in eating are linked to hyperactivation of the reward circuitry of the mesocorticolimbic system, which controls our sense of pleasure and enjoyment.
While it may seem difficult to change your own brain chemistry, being aware of the problem is the first step. When you detect a change in your appetite, taking the time to assess and chart a course of action is critical. One of the best ways to manage your appetite while depressed is to meal plan. This is helpful for people who suffer from both an increase and a decrease in appetite. For those who find themselves overeating, having set meals in individual containers can help with portion control and self-regulation of how much you’re eating, rather than sitting around with an open bag of chips.
