In OA, you’ll connect with people who understand your struggles. Whatever problem you may have with food, you are welcome here, regardless of race, creed, nationality, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, or any other attribute

LOVE OA
and it shows
Read personal stories from people who’ve walked the same path and found freedom, healing and community. Let their experience inspire you.
I used to binge late at night, hiding wrappers and feeling ashamed. OA changed everything. Hearing others share helped me feel less alone. Today, I have a sponsor, I work the steps, and I no longer eat in secret. I’m free from the shame.
OA Fellow
I joined OA at 64, thinking it was too late to change. I was wrong. With time and support, I’ve lost weight, gained confidence, and found peace. You’re never too old to start over.
OA Fellow
Food was my escape, and the shame nearly broke me. OA welcomed me without judgment. Through the steps, I found healing and self-forgiveness. I’m not just surviving anymore—I’m living.
