About Sexaholics Anonymous

Sexaholics Anonymous holds free, anonymous meetings for people who want to stop compulsive sexual behaviour. It is a twelve-step fellowship, and members share their own experience rather than giving advice or asking questions about yours.

SA sets a single, specific definition of sobriety for its members, which is narrower than the one some other fellowships in this area use. That definition is the main practical difference between them, and it is worth reading before you pick a first meeting.

The UK has in-person meetings as well as online ones, and some groups are men only or women only. Nobody is asked to describe anything in detail to attend, and there are no fees and no referral.

To find a meeting, see the list below.

Common questions

Are SA meetings free?

Yes. All Sexaholics Anonymous (SA) meetings are free to attend. There are no membership fees, no waiting lists, and no referrals required. Some groups pass a basket for voluntary contributions toward room hire costs, but this is entirely optional.

Do I have to speak at my first meeting?

No. You can come and listen without saying anything. Nobody will call on you, and most people find it easier to sit quietly and take things in at first. If you want to say your name you can, but there is no expectation.

Is SA religious?

The programme references a higher power, which each member defines for themselves. Many members are not religious, and atheists and agnostics are common in the rooms. The spiritual aspect is about seeking help outside of yourself, not about any particular religion.

What happens at SA meetings?

Someone chairs the meeting, reads a short opening, and members share from their own experience. You will not be called on or expected to take part. Meetings usually last about an hour.
