From my personal experience in my social circle, I agree. It's a tougher problem too than drinking, because food is everywhere.

You have to eat something, but you don't have to drink. I've seen it described as: Imagine telling alcoholics to keep it under control, while still making them have 2-3 drinks a day!
That's a good depiction of how diabolical this addiction is. I'm happy I don't have it, but I recognize this in others.

I wish I could help them. I've tried. And while I studied psychology, I'm not a psychotherapist.
