@theautisticcoach@actuallyautistic Hm, I ate very fast in the two years of my professional training, because we trainees just didn't have much time: Walk to the canteen (in another building), wait in the row, get the food, find a place to sit, and afterwards I had to go back to my place in the training room, so I usually had 15 - 20 minutes to actually eat, and that in this canteen full of loud people.
Some times later my then-boyfriend recogized while we had dinner in a restaurant that I was eating so fast, and told me. After that I started forcing myself to eat slowlier. Took me a while, but I managed. Well, I was still young (less than 20 yrs old).
