What is Sexaholics Anonymous?
Sexaholics Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop lusting and become sexually sober. There are no dues or fees for SA membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. SA is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy; neither endorses or opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay sexually sober and to help others achieve sexual sobriety.*
Sexaholics Anonymous is a recovery program based on the principles of Alcoholics Anonymous and received permission from AA to use its Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions in 1979.

Who Are we?
We are a part of a growing community of individuals that is made up of both men and women who collectively share a common goal: A desire to break the chains of bondage and compulsive behavior known as sex addiction.
Sexual addiction can take on as many different forms as there are people. We’ve learned through our experiences that lust is at the core of the issue; therefore, the goal of Sexaholics Anonymous is progressive victory over lust. For us, the 12 step program of SA is the foundation that program of recovery.
It is our hope that you will find information on this site that will help you on your road to recovery. We have several links that provide detailed information on when our meetings are, how they work, and how to contact us. As a rule, we ask that newcomers contact the hotline prior to attending, as our meetings are considered ‘closed’ meetings. This means that only those desiring their own personal sexual sobriety are welcomed to attend. Please respect our request for anonymity and do not attend meetings just to observe. We have found that recovery only takes place when an individual seeks it out for himself or herself.
