As we enter into spring…we see continued new life in our SA groups. We have three meetings a week in Syracuse (all growing in numbers, praise be to God!) and have begun a meeting once a week in Binghamton, NY, 70 miles south of us. We have members with one, two, and three years of sobriety, and we are constantly scrutinizing our meaning of sobriety, and the quality of our recovery.

Our group fluctuates in numbers… Some move from the area, others seem to be unable to connect with the program and the life of recovery. At the present time we normally have six to ten at our meetings. These are the core group of those who “keep coming back” because the program is working for them.

As of February 1991, I started an SA group here in Blackwell. I am very grateful for the four members of SA at Wichita, KS for coming to Blackwell and helping me to get started. I am very grateful for SA and my recovery. I've been in recovery since June of 1988 when I found out I was a sexaholic and started attending SA.

My story is very similar to many I have read and heard in SA. I was sexually obsessive and compulsive for over 50 years. And my disease got progressively worse until I finally found myself living in a flop house hotel, losing my job, frequenting porno shops and flicks, and having lost my family and friends. In desperation, I called SA and got help.

A New Beginning
In but a few weeks it will be ten years from the time Box 300 was first opened (June of 1981) and that first wave of desperate letters started pouring in asking for help. When the Chicago conference rolls around in July, it will have been ten years from the historic meeting in our garage where SAs from over the U.S. joined together for the first time and came to one mind and spirit in formulating the principles of our SA Program.
