Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA)

SAA Resources

Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Overview

Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) has three main parts which make up the foundation of the Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) program. They are Recovery, Unity, and Service.

Recovery is taking the 12 Steps of Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) with a step guide or “sponsor”, in order to heal our damaged spirits, rebuild our lives, and recover from sex addiction. Taking the 12 Steps involves reading Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) literature, writing, praying, meditating, making restitution to people we have harmed in our past, doing service work, and attending Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) meetings, among others.

Unity is getting involved with the people, the group, and the fellowship of Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA). It means arriving at Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) meetings early and talking to people. Attending the meetings and going out with people from the meetings after the meetings. Attending SAA activities like SAA retreats, SAA conferences, SAA roundups, SAA speaker meetings, SAA parties, SAA athletic, music events and more. Unity is also participating with other SAA members in activities outside of Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA), talking to other members in-between meetings, providing support to other members, and more.

Service in Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) begins early in recovery, with new members helping set-up chairs, make coffee, greet other members, and clean up after meetings. As new members get more recovery time, they begin taking on service positions with more responsibility. This may include being meeting treasurer, meeting secretary, other meeting level service positions, “sponsoring” or mentoring other new members, and bringing meetings and literature into Hospitals & Institutions where sex addicts can’t get to outside meetings. This type of General Service begins at the meeting level, carries into the local areas, through the “district” level, all the way to national level.

Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Tools

Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) uses a variety of tools to help members recover including SAA Meetings, SAA Literature, SAA Sponsor, SAA Steps, SAA Fellowship, SAA Events, and SAA Service among others.

Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Meetings: Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) members attend Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Meetings to learn how the SAA program works, to gain strength by hearing other SAA members experience, strength and hope, to find support through the SAA Fellowship, to obtain SAA Literature, to get introduced to the SAA Steps, to find a suitable SAA Sponsor, to find out about SAA Events and to get involved in SAA Service.

Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Literature: Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Literature includes Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Books, Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Pamphlets; Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Digital Downloads and Audio Recordings, SAA Coins, SAA group readings and more.

Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Sponsor: A Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Sponsor is a member of Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) who has made some progress in the Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) recovery program, has taken or is taking the steps of Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA), and would like to help other members navigate the Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) steps, learn more about the Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) fellowship and the Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) program.

Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Fellowship – The Fellowship of Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) is just as important as recovery or service. The SAA fellowship is about being part of the community, which is vital for many of us after being isolated and alone for so long. Fellowship is about connecting with each other, holding each other up, and holding each other accountable.

The SAA fellowship benefits our psychological, spiritual, and bodily health. It brings us a reason for living once again, oftentimes after years of being purposeless. SAA Fellowship helps to boost our self-respect, self-esteem, and confidence, while reducing our anxiety and increasing our level of contentment.

Fellowship includes attending SAA meetings, going out with people after the meetings, attending SAA retreats, SAA conferences, SAA roundups, SAA speaker meetings, SAA parties, and a variety of other SAA activities including athletics, music, art and other SAA events.

Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Events: Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Events include SAA speaker meetings, SAA workshops, SAA retreats, SAA conferences, SAA roundups, SAA cruises, SAA vacations and other SAA events.

Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) Service: As mentioned above, Sex Addicts Anonymous Service begins early in recovery and includes SAA General Service, Meeting Level Service, District and Region Level Service. Members follow the guidelines outlined by both the Regional Service Offices and Intergroups. There are also local Sex Addicts Anonymous service meetings that members attend to get information on SAA Service.
