I have been attending a 12 step programme for 2 years now. It's called Overeaters Anonymous and has helped me gain power over my compulsive over eating and may other aspects of my unmanageable life.

The group used to be quite big and now it's dwindled so that I travel for 40 minutes each way to get there and it's just me or just me and one other person.

I'm not getting much from it because of this and am tempted to just give up entirely.

This programme has helped me with many aspects of my emotional life and feel like my life is 10 times better since I started and have received the support of a generous and insightful sponsor.

If I stop going there I'm worried that I will upset my sponsor who has worked tirelessly to keep the group going.

I am very busy at work and uni so simply can't afford to be driving all that way to sit in a room alone for the evening.

Anyone else got any experience of this?

Thanks
