Michelle's post about EDA reminded me of how awesome the 12 steps are and how effective they are in overcoming addictions of any kind (thank you for the reminder and link Michelle). I want to encourage all of you to find a good 12 step program for eating disorders like OA or EDA. If going to a group is not possible right now or you just don't feel comfortable, how about working the steps with a sponsor online? Below are some links to EDA's main page, an introduction to the steps, ways of finding sponsors and more. If you have any questions feel free to email me at kotabuddy@yahoo.com.

Try to read at least the intro to the 12 Steps and Step 1. You will be amazed at how much you will identify with everything being said.
