Well, a sponsor won't keep you sober, and there are no contractual obligations to a sponsor. I think, as a result of a strong urging to work with a sponsor asap, there came the concept of "temporary sponsorship." My "temporary sponsor," asked by me two days out of rehab, has become my permanent sponsor, but I know plenty of people who found others.

Getting a "temporary" to have daily phone contact with (at least) is a beginning towards accountability. So long as you're using the numbers on your list (that you should be asking for at each meeting different meeting you go to), you'll know if there's someone more suited to you - and then you can change.

Peace & Love,
Sugah
