In this episode of 'Overeaters Daily Whispers', the host dives into how the 12-step programme can help manage these intense emotions. Kicking off with a thought-provoking quote from Publilius Cyrus, 'the bare recollection of anger kindles anger', the episode takes a deep look at how unresolved anger can lead to compulsive overeating.
