Eating.

Yeah, can relate, been addicted ever since I can remember. I have tried quitting, but the withdrawals are insane, so guess it's just not for me...

You joke but eating to mask feelings is common and food is the worst addiction to have because you can't just not have it like with drugs or alcohol. You can't avoid food when you need it to survive so maintaining recovery is extremely difficult.
