Has anyone successfully overcome binge eating disorder? I lost weight for a while when I was living alone in a place that had mice (so I didn't keep any food in the house). Now I live with my girlfriend who loves food (and she also has a problem with overeating, though I don't think her problem is as bad as mine) and who freaks out when the refrigerator starts to look empty.
Is there anyway to control impulses aside from getting rid of junk food in the house? Another technique I have used (and I'm glad this list is anonymous!) is masturbation--but that can turn into a compulsion too (actually I have had trouble controlling sexual impulses too).
I long to be normal! Advice?
