Maybe the stories that were told are not as important as the stories we tell ourselves. She no longer had balance in her life and was willing to do any and everything to get that back.
The point of this is that Eve lost her intuitive ability to nourish herself. Eve tried to stop eating the forbidden fruit and eventually avoided eating altogether but that didn't work and she ended up eating until she could no longer breathe. Perhaps Eve suffered with body dismorphia. Not only did she realize she was naked but that she had contempt for the way she looked. But as Eve soon discovered, neither the bite, nor the whole fruit fulfilled her as she had hoped. Perhaps she felt out of control or lacked passion in her life and in order to numb her emotions or soothe herself from Adam's lack of attention or his ambivalence in starting a family, she chose to indulge.
Perhaps life in the little garden was becoming stressful or claustrophobic. Perhaps she was ovulating and had a desperate craving for something sweet. Once upon a time, there was a woman named Eve, who, unable to resist the luring temptation of a fragrant orchard, took a bite of forbidden fruit from the tree of knowledge.
