Step 9 is all about making amends where possible: “Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.” This Step allows us to confront and address the harm we’ve caused through our compulsive eating behaviors. By making sincere efforts to make things right, we can heal old wounds and rebuild trust. Step 9 is not just about fixing past mistakes; it’s also about embracing personal responsibility and fostering genuine connections with others. Through this process, we gain greater self-awareness and emotional clarity, which is necessary to continue further in our recovery journey.. Dive into Step 9 to restore and strengthen your relationships and personal growth and embrace the Spiritual Principle for Step 9, which is love. 🌟

In Overeaters Anonymous, Tradition 7 reminds us: “Every OA group ought to be fully self-supporting, declining outside contributions.” 💵 Our solution is spiritual and shared among equals—this Tradition protects that by preventing outside financial influence. 🚫
When we practice Responsibility 🤝, we recognize that recovery is a shared effort. Our contributions—financial or otherwise—ensure OA remains a safe, neutral space. 🧘‍♀️

Writing ✍️ is not just for when things go wrong—it’s also a way to track our growth in recovery.
From the Writing Tool of OA
“Putting our thoughts and feelings down on paper… helps us to better understand our actions and reactions…”
Whether you are writing about a hard conversation, a joyful moment, or a craving, writing helps process emotions in real time. And it's primary purpose as a Tool of Recovery is to help you work the Twelve Steps. If you’re not sure where to start, begin with a prompt like: What am I trying to control today? or What do I need to let go of?

LIBERO GRATUITO ANONIMO

Why is Overeaters Anonymous different? Because it doesn’t hand you a one-size-fits-all solution—it gives you a Fellowship of stories, each as diverse as the person living them.

In this Lifeline submission, Amy from Kansas shares how OA honors individuality:

“OA has stories, stories about individuals with unique issues and food plans... I can usually relate on some level to all of them.”
Her story is a reminder that recovery is not a checklist—it’s a connection.

Tradition 6 📜 of Overeaters Anonymous says: “An OA group ought never endorse, finance or lend the OA name to any related facility or outside enterprise, lest problems of money, property and prestige divert us from our primary purpose.”
This boundary ensures OA isn’t confused with treatment programs, therapy clinics, or food plans 🍽🏥. It prevents outside issues from clouding our message.
Spiritual Principle: Solidarity 🤝 helps us stay unified and focused on what matters most—helping compulsive eaters find recovery through OA’s Twelve Step program. Outside affiliations can only weaken our primary purpose.

Our Young Adults podcasts highlight the experience, strength, and hope of members who joined OA between the ages of 18 and 30. Listen as they describe their experience with compulsive eating—the hopeless condition of mind and body that can manifest as overeating, anorexia, bulimia, and body image dysmorphia. Together, they share how they have been restored to sanity and are now experiencing the promises of recovery through OA.

If you are suffering from an obsession with food and body image, we hope that you can relate to our stories and that you feel hope, because we have a solution!
