So I’ve been finding out about different 12-step support groups and was wondering if anyone was involved with SLAA, SA, or SAA groups? How long? Has it been helpful? Any advice? Feel free to email me if you don’t want to respond to directly to this thread.

I think SLAA stands for sex & love addicts anonymous (of course, when I first glanced at the thread title, I thought “Symbionese Liberation Army”).

Haven’t run into anyone who has been a member.
