Treatment
From https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/17652-binge-eating-disorder#management-and-treatment it says "There’s no quick fix, but with a consistent, long-term treatment plan, you can recover. Psychotherapy is usually the foundation of this treatment plan, and it’s proved effective for most people. Depending on the individual, your plan may also include medications or nutrition advice. You may interact with a variety of healthcare specialists, such as a psychologist, a psychiatrist or registered dietician."
