Hope all is well 360.

I barely ate while I was drinking, some days I wouldn't eat at all and just pass out. Must have really messed with me in terms of vitamins, my hair was falling out and I guess it would explain my toenail loss?

Guys, I'm having a bit of dilemma. I've been asked to be the main speaker at one of my regular meetings, but I'm not working the AA steps and don't have a sponsor. Some of the people on SR don't think I would be suitable for it. I've been feeling uncomfortable in AA for a while because of it. I'm not sure whether to decline and start attending SMART meetings. I just don't feel comfortable in AA.
I could just not mention the steps and sponsorship in my share, but a lot of AAers would see me as still being in the "what happened" stage of my recovery. Would be good to hear some of your opinions before I decide what I'm gonna do...
