Hey Yayo, ...

I, too, tried AA with myself as the sponsor ... It didn't work out very well ... then I tried AA with a sponsor, but I felt I knew better than him ... then I tried AA with a sponsor and started listening and doing what he suggested ... that's when 'progress' began and I was able to then put a few good sober days behind me ... Amazing how that works ... LOL

God Bless,
Pappy

being your own sponsor doesnt work. if it did you would never have needed one.
