Sponsorship
 

I know this is not the traditional way of doing things but i am desperate to find a sponsor. As addicts we don't do well with rejection or when we don't get our way and I have been through 5 sponsors and none of them have worked. Either too busy, or personal conflicts. The last sponsor I tried was a great option but she ultimately turned me down bc I take Zoloft and gabapentin for depression (I was diagnosed manic depressive when I was 15, 2 years before I tried a drug or a drink so not all of my issues are due to my drug use) if anyone would be willing to sponsor me through technology and phone the distance wouldn't bother me. Please inbox me if you are available. Much love ddc9b

Personally, I never went the sponsor route. When I had a question I posted here and was able to get the replies, opinions and support of many. It allowed me to pick what would work best for me and respectfully leave the rest.

Please read around here and search or ask anything that might be on your mind. Many amazing discussions took place here long before I even thought about getting sober.

I hope you find what you're looking for.

Good for reaching out

If you want you can personal message me. even if I don't sponsor you if you need someone to talk to you and i'm available all the time. I'm about to go work out but I'll be back soon I will be checking in.

Hi.

If you mean a sponsor for 12-step recovery, you might be better off asking in that area to get your message seen by as many people who can help you, and the best response possible.

Ya I agree

I was thinking about itYou had five people you don't like?

I would not be able to sponsor you this long of a distance and don't recommend you doing that. I recommend you going to a better or different AA group where you are. You really do have to see a sponsor face-to-face.
