      Default Hello all - Accountability partner anyone?

      Hello all,

      I am totally new to this site, and have tried many a time to stop P ~X(. I have decided that's it and I am going to need some support.

      I am wondering if anyone would like to be my accountability partner. I was thinking the following:

      1) We set eachother a reasonable goal.
      2) We email eachother every 2 days with an update. ie if we were clean or had tripped up on a particular day.
      3) For brevity's sake, it would just require a very quick short mail.

      (After some good advice, I have removed my email address. I will have a look on the finding a sponsor page. As you all know, I just feel I will do anything to stop this disease.)

      By the way I am a guy (married) and would prefer a male to reply if that's ok.

      Thanks

      Hey Hurting,

      Welcome to TTF!

      Glad to see you here for support. There is a ton of it available here, all you have to do is seek it! I would advise you to check out the articles and some of the PA's journals.

      I would also advise you to not post your private e-mail address here. Feel free to PM me if I can be of any help.

      Best wishes on your recovery. Hope to see you around.
      -Mell

Each rebuff is an opportunity to move forward; turn away from them,...avoid them, and you throw away your future." -Og Mandino

      Hurting,
      Welcome to TTF. You have come to a greate place to find support.

      You can find or request accountability partner's here:

      Finding a sponsor/sponsee

      And, mell gave you a sound suggestion about removing your personal email. It is better to share that information privately with your sponsor.

      Find peace,
      ~C~

      Thanks Mell and Crisodian

      Thanks for the sound advice. I just want to get this out of my system and would do anything.

      But I have made that decision now and will stick to it... Im all ready for Phil's 100 day goal!

      Peace, Hurting
