Okay, I hate it when people eat my food. I share my house with my evil sister and my mom. But whenever I have some food and realize that some of it's gone, I start to cry involuntarily. How do I stop it? And why does this happen?

Because you feel violated. Do you mark your food? If not, mark foods as yours if they're important to you (and you purchased them with your money or they were purchased especially for YOU)
Sharing a house with others (family or not) doesn't give you a lot of personal privacy or personal security if the others also share the same spaces as you, or if they come at their own will into your spaces.
I think the food thing is partly territorial on your part, part safety, and them getting into your food you see as disrespectful and violating. You're probably crying in frustration, as this type of thing probably happens all the time no matter what you've done or said in the past.
You really need to talk to your mom and sister to work this out. If you can't get it worked out by yourselves, then getting professional help would be advisable.

Gee, that one is tough. Believe it or not, I have found that problems like this with food are associated with anxiety disorders often precipitated by post-traumatic stress disorder. I am not saying that is why, but you did say "evil sister", and it has me wondering...
