I'm pretty sure that in most 12 step programs it isn't really required that you have bee clean for a certain period of time before you can be a sponsor. In fact, quite often, the process of sponsoring someone else helps you stay clean.
I'm willing to sponsor someone as long as they know that I have really been struggling lately myself.
I'm also looking for a sponsor, mainly someone to be accountable to, probably have daily emails or something at first. Currently I try to do this with my ex-girlfriend but when I slip up I am too ashamed to admit it to her. It would probably be good to have someone that I wasn't so emotionally involved with. I'm a straight male, 30, but I don't really care what attraction my sponsor has. I'm pretty sure that I need a male sponsor though. |
