Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT): CBT helps you examine your behaviors and the thoughts and feelings behind them. Your therapist then works with you in a structured way to break those patterns and find more constructive ways of responding to those thoughts and feelings.
Lisdexamfetamine (Vyvanse®), an ADHD medication, has recently become the first U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drug to treat binge eating disorder.
nterpersonal therapy (IPT): IPT is a short-term, focused type of individual therapy that addresses the current conflicts and stress factors affecting your life. Rather than dig into childhood issues, your therapist focuses on problem-solving to relieve your most pressing pain points.
