Chocolate is known to release endorphins and has a bit of caffeine in it so yea, it will pep you up on a blue day. Studies have proven this true.

Some people find relief in food, like some drink when they are heart broken. Chocolate has some aphrodisiacs and serotonin that helps some women feel better when they are depressed. Not all women stop producing serotonin when they get depressed or get depressed cause they stopped producing serotonin so that is why chocolate doesn't work with everyone. I personally eat a lot when I'm depressed and that makes me feel better. Maybe it is true, "WITH A FULL TUMMY, THE HEART CAN NOT BE SAD"

Because, it's chocolate and chocolate is one of the best things on this world. It distracts me, I'm a major chocoholic. Of course normally I'm happy in the first place before I eat some..

It releases the same chemicals an orgasm produces...So it gives that comfort/satisfying feeling.
