B.T. of Salt Lake City, Utah writes, “I think now that I’ve been in SA for 2 years (it always seems to take 2 years) that I’m just getting to the program. I thought in the beginning that I didn’t really lust because I didn’t body watch but now I see that it was wanting people to think I was clever, smart, witty, to think I was so understanding, etc. on and on. Mostly I see it’s always wanting to be in the brainy or talented people, you know sitting with them, throwing ‘knowing’ looks their way, laughing at inside jokes that left the other people out. It really goes deep, doesn’t it?

“I think we could be called Egomaniacs Anon.

“I think when I came in I also hoped SA would solve my marital and sexual problems and it hasn’t. But for now that will have to be okay. We have once again started S-Anon and I think it may make it this time. More wives are coming and more couples coming in so maybe it’s finally time.”

A.A. of San Angelo, Texas writes, “For me, I think that my Higher Power wants me to work the SA program, go to AA meetings, stay sober. After that has happened a while (I have 3 months sobriety) I think He will put the people in front of me to 12 Step and start an SA group in San Angelo.”

[The latest from San Angelo is that they do have a group started now.]

T.O. of Cleveland, Ohio writes, “SA Cleveland will be celebrating 1 year with a marathon on October 12, 1985 — 9:30-4:30. Using the new format has increased sobriety for our members!”
