Over Eating

Overeating in children and adolescents involves consuming more food than the body needs, which can lead to weight gain and associated health problems. It can be influenced by various factors, including emotional distress, environmental cues, and learned behaviours. Interventions for overeating often focus on developing healthy eating habits, emotional regulation skills, and addressing any underlying psychological factors.
