Q. I keep binge eating when I'm stressed—how can I fix this?

First, it's important not to label binge eating as simply a lack of willpower. Identifying recurring triggers—such as sleep deprivation, long gaps between meals, emotional tension, drinking occasions, and late-night work—helps clarify where to intervene.

1. One-week log: Rather than recording how much you ate, note the time right before a binge, your hunger level, emotions, location, and hours of sleep.
2. Reduce long gaps without food: Prepare meals and snacks containing protein and fiber before meetings or late-night work to avoid extreme hunger.
3. Change your access environment: Break the automatic response by turning off delivery-app notifications, drinking water before eating right away, or briefly stepping away from the spot.
4. Normalize the next meal: Skipping meals as punishment after a binge can lead to another long fast, so return to regular eating patterns.

If you eat large amounts in a short time and feel unable to control it, or if vomiting, excessive exercise, or intense guilt repeats, consulting a psychiatrist or a professional who addresses eating-related issues should come first.
