Food Addiction Support Group
An individual suffering from a food addiction disorder frequently experiences episodes of uncontrolled eating, or binging, during which they may feel frenzied or out of control. They will eat much more quickly than is normal, and continue to eat even past the point of being uncomfortably full. Binging in this way is generally followed by a period of intense guilt feelings...
If you don't want to go the medication route, can you try mixing up your nightly routine? I also have this problem and I find when I sit around watching TV, it's the WORST!!! Maybe you could go for a walk, talk on the phone to a friend, take a bath or read a really good book. Something to take your mind off of the food, yet relax you at the same time. You could even try drinking herbal tea.
