A Politically incorrect look at recovery from an old hippie turned Old-timer
In the 12 Step programs we need newcomers to tell us where we came from and Old-timers to remind us of how it works as we trudge that road of happy destiny. It's called "carrying the message." If you've been around the program for even a few months you will already have been told many myths about meetings, sponsors, the opposite sex and our sole purpose. You have questions? This Old-timer has some answers.
Can I call myself an addict in an AA meeting?
Can I date an Old-timer when I'm a newcomer or a newcomer when I'm an Old-timer?
Is it OK to drink non-alcoholic beer?
Can my group be my sponsor?
Do I have to tell the group about the skeletons in my closet?
Ultimately you must answer these for yourself and the way you get these answers is by listening to us Old-timers. And the biggest question of all? What happens to newcomers? Answer. Old-timers.
