hello,
treatment for it just lies in you itself.
do make a strong mind and try avoiding it,
whenever you get the urge to eat them, do divert your mind and get engaged into something else.
its not a very good habit to have.
it may lead to devastating outcomes.
it may lead to untreatable conditions also.
better make up your mind and adopt a very different life style
and lead a healthy life...
things will go better gradually
good luck to you
