"...together we can do what we could never do alone." *
Do You Have A Problem With Food?​
Overeaters Anonymous can help make your teen years some of the best years of your life. How? By sharing the experience, strength and hope of those who came before you and who were helped to overcome the problem we have in common - compulsive overeating.

No matter how hard we tried on our own, we could not control our eating. In OA we found the help we needed to stop overeating and start feeling better about ourselves.

If you have a problem with food, give yourself the following quick quiz.  Be honest -- you're doing this for YOU!
​
  1. ​Do you eat as a response to all kinds of feelings -- highs, lows and in-betweens?
  2. Does your overeating make you miserable?
  3. Do your eating habits interfere with your social life; or does your social life revolve around food?
  4. Do you eat normally in front of others and binge when you're alone?
  5. Do you drift off in class because you're thinking about food or losing weight?
  6. Do you hate gym and other activities because of your weight?
  7. Do you spend more than you would like to on junk food?
  8. Do you sometimes steal food -- or money to buy it?
  9. Do you pass up dances and other events because you can't fit into nice clothes?
  10. Do you resent people's comments and "helpful suggestions" about your weight or the amount of food you eat?

    ​​If the answer to most of these questions is "Yes," you're not alone. Many people, including a lot of teenagers, suffer from the disease of compulsive overeating -- a disease from which we can recover.
