Binge eating

I’m 42. I’m self diagnosed autistic, waiting for assessment. I binge eat when I’m anxious/stressed. My downfall is chocolate. It makes me fed up. I want to stop. Just wondered if anyone has any help advice support? Thanks in advance.

Getting your anxiety under better management is possibly the best starting point and maybe getting someone to do your food shopping if you lack control in the supermarket to wean you off the worst excesses.
