There are some who need a sponsor like that, and there are others who don't. When I came into the program I was mentally beaten down to the point where I knew my next drink would kill me. My relief came 6 months later when I found a good sponsor and started working the Steps, but in between that time I was blessed with the presence of others who shared their stories with me.
I only registered on this forum two weeks ago, and with only 21 months of sobriety I probably don't have any business debating with you or anyone else about sponsorship. I only know what worked, and continues to work for me personally. My apologies if I've offended.
