Stress & Relaxation / Arghh I can't stop eating ...
I know this sounds counterintuitive, but eat as much as you like and don't feel bad about it. As soon as you allow yourself to relax and stop beating yourself up, a shift happens in your mind and you won't have the urges.

Yes, nurturing relationships help your body release oxitocin that regulates your appetite. Toxic relationships stress the body that begins to release cortisol that makes it harder to digest food that is then stored as fat. Emotional eating aka 'eating to make yourself feel better' leads to weight gain because these foods are usually made of sugars.

Stress & Relaxation / Can't sleep
I have a similar problem. Try to take a hot bath, put oil in the water and give yourself a gentle massage. Drink a non-caffeinated tea (mint, chamomile) with milk. Try to turn off electronics, as the light interferes with melatonin in your body that you need to fall asleep.
I, myself, stuggle with this issue a lot. Thank you for sharing.
First things first. In order to funtion properly, we need enough sleep. Set everything aside for now, solving your relationship conflict or worring about your diet, and make sure you got enough sleep. Give yourself enough compassion and know that everything will be ok. Well rested, prepare a good meal for yourself and go workout. Since you didn't get to do it in the morning, do it in the evening or the next day. Well rested, well fed, and feeling good, begin to explore how you can solve your relationship conflict constructively. You'll be better equiped for furtue mishaps, every time you take care of yourself now.
