Overeaters Anonymous
|
Overeaters Anonymous (OA) is a twelve-step program for people with problems related to food including, but not limited to, compulsive overeaters, those with binge eating disorder, bulimics and anorexics. Anyone with a problematic relationship with food is welcomed, as OA's Third Tradition states that the only requirement for memberships is a desire to stop eating compulsively. OA was founded by Rozanne S. and two other women in January 1960. The organization's headquarters, or World Service Office, is located in Rio Rancho, New Mexico. Overeaters Anonymous estimates its membership at 54,000 people in 6,500 groups meeting in over 75 countries. OA has developed its own literature specifically for those who eat compulsively but also uses the Alcoholics Anonymous books Alcoholics Anonymous and Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. The First Step of OA begins with the admission of powerlessness over food, the next eleven steps are intended to bring members "physical, emotional, and spiritual healing." From Wikipedia under the

Q. As an outsider, I think that it's a bit creepy and geared toward people who want to be "sick" (and want sympathy) rather than just taking true responsibility for their eating habits. Of course, it's probably better than nothing. What does everyone else think? Anyone have personal experience with them? Asked by Maci - Sat Jul 19 19:21:27 2008 - Diet & Fitness - 3 Answers - Comments A. I think as an outsider it's always difficult to understand certain people and their situation. I'm not an expert on this subject, but i have done some research and have some experience on the matter, and I personally believe that overeating can be related to a persons emotions and moods, and can become an addiction that causes compulsive eating. It is different than a person simply enjoying food. I don't believe that overeaters want to be sick or desire sympathy. I also think that, as with alcoholics or drug addicts, it usually is not as simple as stopping and getting over it.
