Binge eating is an effective stress management technique.

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

When evaluating the statement, we consider what binge eating does for stress management. 
Option 1: 'True' would assert that binge eating is an effective stress management technique. This is misleading, because while some people may temporarily feel relief from stress due to comfort or distraction, binge eating often leads to negative emotional and physical consequences, such as guilt, shame, digestive distress, and risk of developing disordered eating patterns. Therefore, this option mischaracterizes the typical outcomes and the overall effectiveness of the behavior. 
Option 2: 'False' correctly counterclaims the notion that binge eating is an effective strategy for handling stress. In reality, it tends to provide only short-lived relief at best and can exacerbate stress in the long run by creating a cycle of avoidance plus negative emotions, and may contribute to worsening anxiety or mood symptoms. It also undermines healthier coping mechanisms like exercise, talking to someone, or practicing relaxation techniques. 
In summary, the claim that binge eating serves as an effective stress management technique is not supported by evidence about its repercussions and its limited, momentary benefit contrasted with longer-term consequences.
