Hi Ya'll- New to this forum
Permalink  

Hey everyone! I am new to this forum. I have almost five months clean ( May 18th, 2009). I live in a little town in the middle of nowhere, and the nearest NA meeting is 60 miles away- and even then, they're not reliable on their meeting times. Anyway- I go when I can, and let God lead my life. I am really blessed to have found this site. I am currently on step 5, but have been having sponsor trouble. Both of them have gone back out- I guess I need to get on my knees and pray for God to put a sponsor in my life. I look forward to meeting everyone! God Bless!

Welcome, Kris! Congrats on your 5 months!!!

I'm from a small town, too, but we do have 1 NA meeting a week here... as well as a couple of AA meetings. I work the program of NA with an NA Sponsor, but I'll go to any meeting I can find... NA, AA, CA, Accent On Christ, Celebrate Recovery, Coda, Family Anonymous, whatever! I have to travel a lot to get to meetings, which gets expensive, but doesn't cost nearly as much as active addiction.

I'm really glad you're here!

Hey again Kris!
I was just thinking ,5 months clean and working step 5 already!!thats a pretty excelerated process huh!Both sponsors back out?Staying clean is the most important thing for you to do and sponsorship is also  important but remember there is no rush or no graduation in this process so digest it well.Just my humble thought patterns clickin...Nice to meet you...................smile

Thanks everyone for the replies. I do go to an AA meeting everyother day, sometimes I go everyday. The way I look at it with my step work is that its not a race, its my life. My recovery depends on 24 hours at a time-I can't live in the past( don't want to), or in the future. I can only live in the here and now. My past is my best asset. Thanks everyone- Its so nice to have somewhere to go where people understand me.
