Site Policy
The purpose of this web site is:
- To serve the fellowship of Sexaholics Anonymous.
- To serve as a resource for S.A. members in a timely fashion.
- To provide accurate and consistent information about
Sexaholics Anonymous Phone Meetings
- To provide information about services and activities
provided by the S.A. Central Office.
- To encourage participation of S.A. members, groups and
committees in S.A. services and activities.
Phone Etiquette
- If the line is silent when you call, you may need to wait
a few minutes until others call.
- Be courteous. Please mute your phone if there is background
noise at your location and when you are not speaking.
- It is recommended to use the mute feature on your phone
if there is background noise at your location and when you
are not speaking. If your phone doesn't have the mute feature,
press 5 to mute and press 4 to un-mute. The phone system
will give you an audio acknowledgement when you are on mute.
Backup # Mute/Un-mute use *6 FAQs
- It is helpful if you can keep track of your name in the
order of callers and introduce the person that follows you
when done sharing.
- Daily Sobriety Renewal is not the same as a conventional
meeting. We read a series of questions together. We please
ask all callers to limit their shares, so everyone has an
opportunity to answer the list of questions. Our real goal
is to hear the question and say yes in our hearts, and respond
with one or two sentences (15 seconds).
Background
Connecting
SA members 365 days/year via teleconference all over the globe
Attend a live Sexaholics Anonymous teleconference meeting
with others around the world who are seeking sobriety. SA
began in 1979. The phone meetings began in 2004.
This website originated on April 13, 2009 out of mere desperation
from a fellow SA member who believed in carrying the message,
to help himself stay sober. Our singleness of purpose is to
aid in providing timely and accurate information to the newcomer,
as well as existing members of Sexaholics Anonymous. "I
am responsible. When anyone, anywhere, reaches out for help,
I want the hand of S.A. always to be there. And for that:
I am responsible."
The phone meetings have experienced tremendous growth and
structure improvements. Below are some of the highlights:
- Popularity of the Internet
Averaging 6,000 hits/month in 2009 and over 30,000 hits/month
in 2010
