Show Notes
I was adopted and that comes with its unique baggage.
I always felt there was something wrong with me.
My story matches so many others, My mom comforted me with food and it worked.
I came to OA in 1976. I followed the strict food plan, lost weight and collected sponsees. It cost me my family which was not a bad thing.
I started meetings at my apartment. And found a church that synced well with my program.
I unknowingly married an alcoholic which led to my relapse. which led me to Al-Anon. which opened my eyes even more.
The beginning of her sobriety was also my return to abstinence.
I have a morning ritual which includes my sponsees, reading, walking and it seems to be working . . for me.
