hi, my name is sarah and i am an addict. i have four clean months now. i live in a very small country town. i am having alot of trouble finding a sponser with clean time who understands sponsership. i have been told by women in my group that it is optional and most of the women haven't had sponsers. i know that i need someone to help me through the steps and am in search of someone.
let me know if you have any advice for me, thanks-
i'm new in recovery too, i've got 5 months. and i too am living in a small town (oil patch country), where the men out number the women 10 to 1.
so i'm having a hard time finding someone i can relate to also.
but the guys here can help you out . i'm taking a back seat lately, not doing much of anything. but when i'm ready to get back into it, i know these guys will be here to guild me down the path....or by then maybe you can help me ...
have a great day and congrats on your 4 months..awsome sarah...!!!!!!! ttyl. peggy
Sarah, welcome to Miracles In Progress Group of NA and Congratulations on 4 months clean & serene. Way to go. Keep coming back and I'm sure you'll find that person who can guide you thru your journey of recovery...
As long as I was without a Sponsor, I felt like an orphan in NA, trying to do it alone. One suggestion of our program is that we don't try to work the program (the 12 Steps) by ourselves...
Glad you found us. We need you here. Together We Can!
Hugs, Love, Light ~ Tahir.
