Have you ever experienced a Kuchisabishii?

Say it with me

Coochi-Sab-Beeshee

Not 100 on that pronunciation but it's fun to say really fast on repeat will a friend drops a fat beat.

Means eating not because you are hungry, but because your mouth is lonely. Or directly means Lonely Mouth. Or Lonely Coochie

Which to me that opens up much more rethinking. Like it's a perfect way to say that feeling. And honestly makes sense. After a break up there's many mental residuals and needing something else distracting to do with your mouth that can bring you any ounce of happy feeling back.

Really like this because to me it opens a bit more to mental understanding rather than just us Americans calling it overeating or other words for gluttony like a "sin" of sorts. I think describing it as a lonely mouth is more caring and hopefully inspiring towards a solution to an issue rather than being more accusative.

Sometimes. I eat veggie sticks (mostly celery and carrots) to keep it guilt-free. I always have some in the fridge.

In terms of kanji:
口 (kuchi -- mouth)
寂しい (sabashii -- lonely)

Ku-chi Sa-ba-shi-i

Or Furigana: くちさびしい
く (ku)
ち (chi)

さ (sa)
び (ba)
し (shi)
い (i)

Japanese pronunciation is very simple for the most part when broken down to furigana since each smaller kana character (save for sub-characters) is pronounced separately. We don't have to worry about combinations of characters affecting pronunciations. So if you know how to pronounce all 46 characters in Hiragana and Katakana, you basically know how to pronounce any word in Japanese from its furigana.

I really want to learn

It's fairly simple if we're talking Hiragana and Katakana. I think even a few weeks and you can be very fluent reading and writing it. Kanji is unfortunately a nightmare. 😅 But there's a lot you can navigate with just Hiragana and Katakana.
