I'm sorry to see you are still having difficulties
finding a sponsor. Welcome back to SR....

Yes...I do think Step 2 can be done without a sponsor.
For me....it was about re-connecting to my God.

Many of us keep Step 1 close by daily
and you can too.

Best of luck.....

Step 1 is all about conceding to your innermost self. There are many ways to get there, but the end result is the same. A no reservation surrender. Part of that surrender for me was knowing that I could not do this alone, that I needed help. So getting a sponsor was fundamental to that surrender for me.

My first trip through the steps was somewhat self-guided. I worked closely with a sponsor and did what he directed, but at some level, I decided when I moved on to the next step. Actually, god decided. I kept having these moments of clarity, or something in the book would resonant and come alive for me. SO, when my head in heart was IN step 3, that's when I was doing step 3, and so forth. Just kept finding myself directed on a particular step.
