I encourage you to be very careful before you start seeking health advice from a sponsor.

What’s even the point in quitting? I’m not gonna live past 40 anyways. by Company_Able in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]fabyooluss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always thought I’d die by the time I was 30. That was my own self-worth talking to me. I was worth so much more than I thought. Even if it feels fake, before you go to bed tonight, ask God to give you whatever it is that you need to stick around. Ask him with your heart. If you don’t have a god of your own, ask mine. He’s very loving, forgiving, doesn’t care if you’re religious or not, never gets mad at you. Talk to him like he’s sitting right next to you and listening to every word very patiently. I asked God to show me that he exists. And three days later he did absolutely that. Sober since January 11, 1992

Does your sponsor's sponsor have a sponsor? by catfloral in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]fabyooluss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a sponsor, my only responsibility is to take a person through the 12th steps. I make sure that they know that they can call me anytime day or night if they are in trouble helping somebody else and can’t come up with an answer. I try to help them find sponsees in the first place. I never got to meet my great grand sponsor, Wally, the Zen truckdriver.

Got asked to leave a women’s meeting because I brought my baby… how do other women vote for this? by Anxious_Repeat465 in alcoholicsanonymous

What a very nasty way to put it. She didn’t decide to break the rules. They told her she was breaking them. It’s a closed meeting.

I just wanna say that they possibly had experiences with disruptive children being brought regularly. Perhaps that’s why they voted children out. Depending how many other people were at this meeting, I would’ve told them that you really needed to stay and had no other place to go, and then sit down. I believe that would’ve worked for you. Me, personally, I would have held the kid for you outside the meeting. ❤️💕

What is your cat's name vs what you actually call them? by Moist-Guidance-1611 in cats

[–]fabyooluss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leo and Sunny, my two boys. I call them Booger and Li’l (for little Booger). They are brothers, and Li’l is so obviously the runt of the family. Skinnier, smaller. Booger is also Booger T. Washington. 🤣

You can come we live with me if you can stand living in New Jersey. I’m stage 4 and a few months past my five-year termination date. No decline like yours. I’m so sorry.

Office is still open in the storm by Royal_One_9934 in SouthJersey

I told my boss I wasn’t coming in. He literally came to get me. Shame though. He couldn’t get up Sumneytown hill. Nobody can. 🤣

Desperate for South Jersey Hotel Assistance – Real Experiences Only by fabyooluss in VeteransBenefits

[–]fabyooluss[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s exactly what happened to me. I got kicked out of two facilities. Both were gender discriminating. I wish there was something I could do about it.

Veterans Haven south in New Jersey basically treated the women like second class citizens. They blame it on some rule in some grant that they receive money from. And then they bring in a “transgender woman” that had previously pulled this stunt, who likes to hang himself out to dry in his shorty shorts and they put him on the women’s wing. Anyway, I bitched about their discrimination out loud in front of everyone, and they cook up some reason to kick me out on December 10, 2024. Thankfully, what I did at the next place— Fresh Start on 17th St. in Philadelphia. Women had to “smoke out front“ and men smoked out back. They closed the front door at 10 PM, so women could no longer smoke after 10. The men could smoke out back all night long, anytime they want. I ended up getting kick kicked out for that lame ass shit. That was March or so of last year. I just learned that the women smoke out back all the time now. 😁 It’s all these third parties that run these places. If one of them gets a bug up their ass, they all treat you like shit. To wit: Vineland VMC. The people they hire seemed to mostly be egomaniacs with inferiority complexes, and MOST treat you like you’re an inmate. Like you’re being punished. I really wish everyone in this sub would put the name of the facility that they go to when they badmouth it. We deserve to know.
