SA won't save you, but Hashem will. Turn to him. How long does it take to do tshuva? A split second!  Don't believe the SA nonsense of needing a certain amount of days, months, years, before you can hold your head up high and feel pure.  That's not the Jewish way! Chazal tell us that if you decide right now to not act out again, you've done teshuva and are back to being beloved by Hashem. You can renew at any time!!!!

Where is this in SA literature? To my knowledge it's a one day at a time program, focusing only on today, and I do say I don't think it'd ever advise holding your head up high and feeling "pure". who needs that spiritual ga'vah to ruin a good thing?
"Vegeta, what does the scouter say about his sobriety level?"
"... It's over NINE-ZEROOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!"
One day... At A Time :-D

Introduce Yourself and get a free karma point from yours truley!

It's not in SA literature because SA is missing some core truths. Thank G-d we have Yiddishkeit to both supplement whats missing in SA as well as replace some of SA's erroneous ideas.
