Restricting and Eating Disorders

I didn't want to make this long but according to Loseit rules i need to be more thorough. How do I restrict my eating without my brain going into "all or nothing mode" so that I don't slip into bad habits?

My ability to function is being hindered by my fat body and I'm over it. I am 5ft and around 115kgs. I am struggling to do day to day things that I really don't wanna say right now.

At the start of the year i was aware i was slipping into dangerous territory. My thoughts were filled with hatred towards myself, ideas of purging and restricting. I would try go as long as I could without eating, only to give in, eat two whole pizzas, feel guilty and repeat. It got to a point where I just couldn't let myself do that. I'm incredibly in tune with my mental health, so I stopped dieting and restricting and just let it be. But I can't just let it be because I am ballooning.

My biggest issue is that the moment I tell myself I can't have this or that, my brain will fight me and I let ot win. Even the smallest restriction is made insane (e.g you can have this sweet thing today but not tomorrow kind of thing, or you can have half of this small chocolate bar and the rest tomorrow)

For reference, I do see a psychologist and (hopefully soon) a dietician. I'm not looking for armchair psychology please, just words of experience.
