There was a period of time where I suffered from beginning stages of anorexia. Things weren't going good and often starved myself just so I could have something in control. Now, im starting to get better, I'm eating more often now. But the thing is, I'm constantly thinking and craving for food. I get more and more hungry, and I don't know how to deal with the hunger pains. Any help?

Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
If you are having hunger pains, actual pain due to hunger, then you aren't eating enough yet and you are still suffering from an eating disorder.
Hunger pains are natures way of saying "I'm going to hurt you if you don't feed me!"
Now, if you didn't actually mean physical pain, just that you are craving food, well, that is good! But my next advice is the same regardless:
You should probably see a doctor or even nurtionalist, to clarify what and how much you should be eating and to make sure there is no physical or medical cause for what you've experienced. (Like, low blood sugar, for instance which can cause both cravings and physical pain.) Having proffesional advice will also help to put you in control, and you can recongize what is actually natural and good, instead of the bat-shit crazy sort of things an eating disorder can lead you to believe. It's good to be aware of what is healthy and have a plan, it's bad to be at the mercy of your irrational beliefs or cravings.
Now is a good time to talk to a pro, you've already done the hardest bit of work by yourself. You just need someone you can rely on to keep you headed in the right direction.
