Default Advice please

Does anyone have any experience with Overeaters Anonymous? I have had problems with binge eating for years but the past six months it has become completely unmanageable.

A friend mentioned OA to me so i looked up the website and the whole 12 step thing looks a bit overwhelming.

Any advice would be appreciated!

At the top of this section of the 3FC forum you will find an Overeaters Anonymous sub forum. Just scroll up above the sticky posts or follow the link below.

I have a family member in AA. I went to the OA site and read the twelve steps. Looks like they took the same set of steps and just changed a few words to make it suitable for their site.

I tried them and didn't like it. The religious aspect was very disturbing to me.
I do better on my own, but thats just me. Each person has to find what works for them.
