So am I. I’ve started last week. I had my best friend’s wedding last night and had a planned intox day for it. Prior to that, I was sober for the last 6 days. I knew that was my one time I would drink and I only had 6 days under my belt but now I am regretting it and have to start from zero again.

I’m guessing you didn’t have a sponsor when you made that plan?

No I don’t have a sponsor yet but some people who check in on me from the meetings.

Prior to starting AA I was, and still am, in a harm reduction/drinking moderation group.

Hi Jules- not in AA but I use Smart Recovery and mindfulness techniques to maintain sobriety. Glad you are here.

I’m having trouble choosing one. It has to be a woman right?

Yes
That is highly recommended. Although a few have been known to break the suggestion.
Statistically it's all been for good reason.

And I understand why as it could become a conflict of interest...

I’m on step 1 after being 9 months sober. I was doing it alone, on self knowledge. But, luckily I found a friend, a sobriety sister to take me through the steps. Im so grateful. It was uncomfortable asking for help.
