Hey Gooch,

I read Pernell's post and understood where he was going with his post.

I read your post and understand what your saying but what does all that have to do with what Pernell was talking about sponsorship? You have a lot to vent about AA and NA; maybe you should do that on your own thread. I agree about how I feel when I have gone to AA meeting and I am an addict but I say what am am in any fellowship "I am an addict". I choose not to go to AA because I don't feel like I belong. I try to get as many as I can to NA. They deal more with the addictions; not just the using and of what. Because you can be addicted to so many things and people.

Pernell, my experience with sponsorship. Well, I have to admit I went about 8 months of my sobriety w/o one. I was in limbo but still had a strong recovery network and attended meetings on a regular basis. Sponsorship is very important, but recovery is individual. We just work with each other to stay clean.
