hi @WithoutSugar.
there are 15 healthcare essentials that you are entitled to which include emotional and psychological support.
if you eating habits are affecting your control then please ask your g.p. to refer you.

I got excellent support through my GP.
Referral to a dietitian, and ongoing weekly meetings to reduce my eating, targeted at reducing my obesity.
I was prescribed a meter and test strips, so we could work together to create a profile of foods that didn't cause me spikes, and together we reduced my eating dramatically.
I also got referred to an NHS gym for a period, which started me on the way to exercising regularly.
The courses are there, but you do have to ask for them initially.
