When we gather together for mutual aid, we help ourselves and other members whose lives have been affected by another person’s sexual addiction. Time, regular attendance at meetings, and working the S-Anon program can help us overcome long-standing negative patterns and adopt healthier attitudes. Eventually we begin to feel a part of rather than apart from. When we apply the tools of the S-Anon program, one day at a time, we will begin to see the gifts of recovery, including fellowship, serenity, and joy. With the help of our Higher Power, we discover new ways of thinking and learn to respond rather than react. We enhance our personal recovery by practicing these new skills with fellow members. Our strength is rooted in our shared goal, which helps us to maintain a unified focus.
