I’m so grateful for SA for putting me on a spiritual path!

I have been sober in SA six months now. It’s been the greatest. I’ve been sober in AA for ten years now. But this last six months in SA have been so powerful to my life. Thank you SA.

I have started reading the book (the SA manual) and I was very dismayed to realize how much I have got to do to straighten out my sex life—really my life in general. I was turned off from religion in general at a young age, and even though I am now realizing how much the spiritual void since has contributed to where I am now, it won’t be easy to get the spiritual beliefs back without a lot of work. At least I am now willing to admit my problem and can get started on it.

I am so thankful for SA and am glad that there is a program and an answer for people with sexual addiction like me. I have needed SA for a long time but only discovered it in Portland this month, and I am attending three meetings a week. I feel that SA is as important to me as insulin to a diabetic, I need it to live.

I have been on your program about four months now and have 102 days sobriety. I have used the SA manual and have gone to whatever 12-Step meeting I could find that would fit into my schedule… I am a woman and I have been married nine years. I have always had trouble with lust, but until about three years ago I never committed adultery, etc. During the last two years I had an adulterous affair with a man and was so addicted, I have now almost lost everything in my life. I couldn’t stop. I tried everything. I am so thankful for this program, it has given me hope again and a way out. It works. Please let people know. I know others have been where I was but too afraid to be honest. I don’t have a sponsor yet, but the Lord has ministered to me and given me my strength.

Thank you so very much for being there when I needed you. All of my Twelve-Step friends mean a great deal to me.

SA has meant so much to me in the past year. Without it, my life was a mess, unmanageable. Now there is order and true joy. I attended the Rochester conference, which was an experience like nothing before in my life. God bless SA and all its members.
