The 11th is a podcast that publishes an entirely new issue on the 11th of every month. Inspired by the experience of opening a magazine you love every month and not knowing exactly what you will get, but trusting that something engaging and true will be there waiting for you. Many stories aren’t meant to be a 10-part series and don’t fit the format of a weekly show. The 11th is a home for those in-between ideas. Made up of reported series and personal journeys, fiction and musicals, deep inv ...

I have been following a journey all my adult life toward what now, as a sober SA member, I think of as Step 1—and I am now almost 60. I am moved to write this article by The Real Connection reading for today, which at the time of writing is April 7. It describes a method of meditation which the writer felt could be useful to other members, that is,…

As a young girl, I dreamed of becoming a scientist. But life took a sharp turn when instead I became a lust addict. Accepting my struggle wasn’t easy.

כאשר הגעתי לSA לראשונה ושמעתי על קבוצות מעורבות (עם גברים ונשים), חשבתי 'אם לכולם יש את אותו המוח שלי, זאת הולכת להיות חגיגה'. כאישה, אני פחדתי מכל אינטראקציה עם גברים בגלל שהדבר היחיד שהיה לי בראש היה מין. הלכתי לקבוצות לנשים בלבד וחשבתי שסקסוהוליסט שיוצר קשר עם המין השני הוא משוגע, והוא משקר לעצמו בנוגע למושאי התאווה שלו…
