Are you miserable if you have to skip a meal?

Miserable from hunger?

I hate missing breakfast, because I like a slow start in the morning, but I’m not miserable from hunger. If I don’t eat dinner I have trouble sleeping, but I’m not very uncomfortable or angry.

I’ve noticed that some people get very edgy and short tempered when they are hungry. Other people seem incredibly uncomfortable, like they have been hungry for days. If I miss a meal nothing is dire.

Again, I am not talking about starvation, I am only talking about being late or missing a meal when you are otherwise well fed.

If you are very uncomfortable what is it like? Is it just physical discomfort or is it more? Does it trigger feelings for you? Any feelings that are not obvious to others like sadness or feeling unloved?
