Binge eating disorder help?

I ve been diagnosed with a binge eating disorder. Right now I m not able to go through in-patient even though that is what the doctor recommended

Are there any tips from other sufferers on how to handle cravings

Please keep in mind this is regarding a diagnosed binge eating disorder and not a dieting issue, so saying "Just don t eat" isn t helpful

    Keep yourself busy. Instead of using money to buy food, use it to go out and do things. You could try volunteering, it will keep you busy and it will lift your mood because you are helping. People don't binge on food when they are happy, something negative is triggering you to binge. You have to find out what it is. Don't keep food around you.
