Usually the reasons we eat when we're not hungry are things like depression, boredom, for comfort, etc.\n\nIf you know that you're eating when you're not hungry, find something else to do besides eating (or a dormant activity).  Go out and ride your bike or take a walk around the block.  Play with the dog or some other ACTIVE activity.  If you're unable to get away from a dormant situation (i.e. doing homework), brush your teeth.  When we have freshly brushed teeth, we tend not to want to eat anything right away.\n\nIncrease your intake of water as well.  Especially since Summer is coming (or here for some of us), it helps keep us hydrated as well as keeps us having a somewhat full feeling.\n\nGood luck - my mom has yummy stuff when I go to visit her too.

no, but if you accidentally swallow some and it gets caught in the back of your throat, you may get a stiff neck.

Yes, you do. Otherwise, you would wake up in a large puddle of drool every morning. You don't feel your self swallowing for the same reason you don't feel yourself roll over or hear soft noises. You brain tunes it out, and your body actually makes a chemical that turns off the nerves to a certain extent.

It can be a symptom of hyperthyroidism.  That's what happened to me.\n  I started being hungry all the time and was losing weight, I thought I had a tapeworm!\n  Either way, if it continues you should go to your doctor because it's not something you can handle on your own. Good Luck

Yup. This is called LPR or laryngopharyngeal reflux. Basically, it's just an extension of gastroesophageal reflux (acid reflux) up to your throat. Most common symptoms include a sensation of "fish bone" stuck in your throat and cough. You can treat it the same way you treat acid reflux. Avoid spicy foods, alcohol, coffee, acidic foods, and anything that increases the acidity of your stomach. Also, avoid lying down at least two hours after your last meal as this increases the susceptibility to reflux. You can take antacids, H-blockers, or PPI's as precribed by your doctor.

Nope, it only means that we hunger for something that we like.  Our body tells us that we are lacking certain nutrients by making us dizzy, causing us to have deficiency diseases....basically responding physically, not mentally.

Whatever it is, you are best off seeing a physician vs. asking on Yahoo Answers. Sounds like some type of respiratory irritation or infection that you feel when your food rubs against it (thus if you eat slow, and the food is more finely chewed, it doesn't irritate). Again, this could be something much more serious - if it is an infection it can spread + kill you.

Your mouth is in close proximity to your eardrums, yes.  Also you DO have a tube that travels from your inner ear to your posterior pharynx (back of your throat)  .  It is perfectly normal to hear crunching, munching, slurping or whatever you do inside your mouth.  lol\nHappy Thanksgiving, and don't get distracted by all these normal noises during your feast today !

most likely its  a blood vessel breaking in your neck causing a flow of blood to the region... tingling. Or its a pinched nerve.

Your digestive system is at work all the time and normally during the day you're eating at more or less regular intervals so there's food in your stomach to be digested.\n\nAfter a nights sleep there's likely to be little left to digest so you get feelings of hunger.\n\nPartly it will depend on what you eat - a 'heavy' meal high in fats and proteins for example, will take longer to digest than a 'light' meal such as a salad.

Could mean you have a pinched nerve or you may need some potassium (bananas are a great source of this).

no, and your throat shouldn't be itching, perhaps you have strep throat

Sounds a bit like Anxiety Disorder, or a Panic Attack. Likely you're in fine health, but you are mentally driving your body to react. The fear becomes self-feeding. Talk to a Psychologist and go from there.

Alcohol raises your blood sugar, which makes you hungry.
