Ok, I am addicted to eating! Every time of the day, I am eating something. But I am skinny. How do I stop my food cravings?

I'm sorry to hear that you are struggling. When you've realized that you've overeaten, try to ask yourself what was happening before the episode? Were you upset? Angry? Lonely? Trying to connect up the feeling/event that happened before the overeating/binge might help. If you find yourself in the beginning or middle, try to stop and check in with yourself. Ask yourself what you are hoping the food will do for you. Are you still tasting it? Does the tenth bite taste as good as the first? Just try to cultivate more awareness and remember, be gentle with yourself! Beating yourself up over it often induces guilt, which may then trigger another binge, keeping the cycle going.
You also said you were thin, so I wonder if you are also restricting?
If it's something that happens frequently, and is interfering with your life, there are some really good therapists that specialize in treating eating and body image problems. http://www.edreferral.com/
See an MD to rule out any medical cause such as a thyroid problem.
Good luck!

Eat an apple and drink a lot of water
Maybe you just like to put things in your mouth.
You probably just bored.
Stop doing that

Well if you are not getting big than you are lucky!
But if its a real problem i would suggest getting the bars that are meal replacers and get you really full. And keep yourslef busy and constantly having fun so you dont think about eating.
Hope i helped and good luck!

Check with your doctor this could be a sighn of a vitamin diffencancy. Dont waite untill you are overweight to seek help. It will be harder to overcome then.

i know! those mini m&m's are just so tiny, they're more tempting to eat than the big ones. However, I'm still in love with the peanut butter m&ms

if you are skinny why do u worry about eating. seems like you have a very active metabolism, that's why you dont get fat. so whats the problem?

Eat foods that digest slowly; nuts, fruits, vegetables.

If you are young, you should think of your future because your metabolisms will change and your habit might not. Sooooooooooooo
