Went to Two meetings today...

Thanks for all the supportive comments. I went to two meetings today. Both were very powerful. In the morning meeting I started crying, borderline sobbing, but I pulled myself together, refocused and regained my composure. I felt so spent. The stories I heard were so painful and yet here was this amazing, diverse group of kind strangers sharing their intimate stories in a safe place. They are forging ahead, trying to rebuild their lives. It truly was a beautiful, inspirational day.

Can anyone recommend or suggest the right time to get a temporary sponsor? I've only completed day 2 of AA. Does one normally wait a month or longer?

Thanks all!
