What happens at anonymous meetings of Sexaholics?
Sexaholics Anonymous® (SA®) is a group aimed at recovering members of their sexual dependence. The problems that members experience may include dependence on lust, pornography or sexual intercourse to name some common problems. Some people attending Sexaholics Anonymous® meetings are simply associated with people who fight sexual urge and want to understand what their beloved is going through. At a typical meeting, the new members will be presented and can choose a sponsor. Then they tend to join other members in sharing their experience and after a 12-step program, which is modified from the alcoholics anonymous® (AA®). While the new members can attend as many meetings of Sexaholics Anonymous® as possible, as they wish, it is recommended to go to at least six meetings before deciding, whether they will continue, because it usually takes so long to feel comfortable enough to find out that meetings are beneficial. New members are also encouraged to get a sponsor, which isUsually someone who helped participate in Sexuaholics Anonymous® meetings. The task of the sponsor is to answer questions and encourage a new member to resist a sexual urge and go to meetings regularly.
Most meetings Sexaholics Anonymous® begins by introducing new members only their first name. Many members decide to share their story during meetings, but no one is forced because it is on a voluntary basis. During most of the meetings of Sexaholics Anonymous®, the leading group leader is brought up by the group leader and members can share their ideas, past experiences and suggestions. Members who decide to speak can apply for a group feedback or just ask others to listen and detain any comments.
In general, the point of the Sexaholics Anonymous® program is not to analyze the basic cause of addiction, but to find a solution with 12 steps. Many steps consist in the fact thatE members admit themselves, higher power and other people, that they are helpless over their sexual coercement. It is expected that the members then acknowledge that higher strength can help them recover because it can change anyone they have hurt through their dependence on sexual behavior. Accepting a personal inventory, continuing to find higher power for help and sharing their goals with other sexual addicts are also steps that members usually take to heal.
