I am still in the struggle, but 2 things I found that help occasionally are: Intermittent Fasting, and this article: Brain over Binge.
Also, I recently discovered that one of my meds: Oxcarbazepine, was causing my food addiction to be worse. It seems to wrap around the "eat" response, and just hover there with it on the "EAT" button, and I can graze and graze and graze non stop all day and night.
My new Nurse Practitioner prescribed abilify, I pick it up this week. I am concerned and a bit angry that one of its side effects can be weight gain. I feel like she didn't listen to my opinion AT ALL.... but I will try this med and see.
Good luck to you, and to us all. <3
