Hi... Please try Psychotherapy first before resorting to any kind of medication.
Binge eating occurs due to various reasons including, but not limited to, poor routine, high stress, poor social contact, loneliness, interpersonal/ career/academic pressure, etc.
It may or may not be at the level of an eating disorder. To get a proper diagnosis, you can consult a Psychiatrist. For Psychotherapy/Counselling, you can consult a Psychologist.
Next Steps
Consult a Psychologist for Counselling/Psychotherapy.
CBT along with Motivational Counselling and Lifestyle Guidance is required.
