Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous, or S.L.A.A., is a program for anyone who suffers from an addictive compulsion to engage in or avoid sex, love, or emotional attachment. We use the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions adapted from Alcoholics Anonymous to recover from these compulsions. The following behaviors have been experienced by members:

 

Having few healthy boundaries, we become sexually involved with and/or emotionally attached to people without knowing them.

 

Fearing abandonment and loneliness , we stay in and return to painful, destructive relationships….

 

We confuse love with neediness, physical and sexual attraction, pity and/or the need to rescue or be rescued.

 

We sexualize stress, guilt, loneliness, anger, shame, fear and envy.…. To avoid feeling vulnerable, we may retreat from all intimate involvement.
