For the unmarried sexaholic, sexual sobriety means freedom from sex of any kind. Thus, for the married sexaholic, sexual sobriety means having no form of sex with self or with persons other than the spouse. "In defining sobriety, we do not speak for those outside Sexaholics Anonymous. SA helps recovering "sexaholics." According to the group, a sexaholic is someone for whom " lust has become an addiction." SA distinguishes itself from other S groups by defining sexual sobriety as no sex with self or with partners other than with one's spouse "in the marriage between a man and a woman", and progressive victory over lust. Collectively these groups are referred to as "S" groups since all their acronyms begin with that letter: SA, SAA, SLAA, SCA, SRA. SA takes its place among various twelve-step groups that seek recovery from sexual addiction: Sex Addicts Anonymous, Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous, Sexual Compulsives Anonymous and Sexual Recovery Anonymous. Sexaholics Anonymous ( SA) founded in 1979 is one of several twelve-step programs for compulsive sexual behavior based on the original twelve steps of Alcoholics Anonymous.
