Does anyone go to OA? I really have been thinking about going but I wanted to know if anyone could tell me about it. Does it help?

No. I have gone to online meetings, though!
Try one out , see if you like it. I have only heard positive from them! Usually, you get a sponsor. They call you and keep up with how you're doing. And you keep up with them. That sounds like a great plan, to me!0 -
Someone told me it was like AA. There are not many meeting in my area of town so Im going to do some more reasearch and see what I find. I think the biggest part for me is getting over myself enough to speak in front of people I don't know. I usually freeze up and get really quiet. LOL0

You should try it. They work for some people and they don't for others. You will never know until you try it yourself. For me I found they were too much on the spiritual side for me but I did like them and they kept me mindful for sure. I would go more if they did not fall on the night of Dancing With the Stars. :ohwell:0

I went to OA and other food-related 12-step meetings for years. You should try going, some people like it and some don't. And every meeting is different, so you may want to try more than one. As for talking in front of others, don't worry, everyone there is really nice and supportive because they understand and have the same problem. And you don't have to share, it's optional.0
