Asking for help
Posted On: 10/13/2008 12:57:41

is not very easy for me to do.But I finally did on Friday,I asked one of the long timers to be my sponsor.And he accepted!I had been coming to the realization that there was no way to do the fourth step without guidance.Just too many questions that I dont know how to ask myself.So I am very happy to have some help with that.As of today I will have 21 meetings in 21 days and it really does help.I think that drunks like me really are helped by the structure and forms of the meetings.It gives you something to not think about,it is just a constant kind of thing.I am going to the big town about an hour north of us today and their meetings are usually about 40-50 people compared to my home group at about 5-15.Also I am going to marriage counseling solo,so it will be a long day of self analysis(woot).Anyway,talk to you all later.

Peace,Donovan

Sponsors are life savers- at least my first was. Need to reconnect with one now,

or find a co-sponsor because my current one has MS and not always up to the job

solo...

Donovan -
     Good deal. I did something similar, I asked someone to hear my take on the fourth. We did and hit it off well enough that I asked him to sponsor me.
     Having a sponsor is a good thing. Someone in the program thats been around a few  years - I can bounce things off him as a sanity check. Lord knows I need that every now and then...
YFIR,
Dennis

Hey how great is that!! Donovan taking care of Donovan!
Asking someone to be a sponser is a big risk, as you know , and you took the chance that's courage.
Keep doin the do things and all will be in God's hands, as it should be.
