I eat a lot though it is due to medication I take, partly for ASD. I take an anti-psychotic to help my meltdowns be less violent and my mood stabilizer helps with emotional regulation. But I have some co-morbid conditions that makes these things worse, if I only had ASD I probably wouldn't need these meds. And on top of being hungry I'm a binge eater.
