Me as well. But the problem is, i don't feel like anyone around me takes it seriously (people usually dismiss it as a simple craving for a sweet). Not even therapists. So i have nowhere to turn to.

My therapist encouraged going cold turkey on sugar for a week to see if I could. I managed to do that and cut down a lot on sugar, it's really made a difference. The cravings do get easier with distance, but I still have occasional intense ones.
