I need a mentor
What's going on Richi?
Ive struggled with addiction my whole life on and off recently started drinking a lot and that led to a relapse on drugs and I’m over it and ready to change my life
Richi... Let's start with the basics Do you openly admit that you have a drinking and drug problem.
Most definitely
Ok with that in mind.
Do you openly admit that your life is unmanageable? Yes or no?
Yes
Excellent.... You just completed the 1st step.
Do you think that there is something out there that has more power than you could restore your thinking/control of drinking and drugging?
It could be anything for the exception of the doorknob<-- it WILL turn on you every chance it gets.
Absolutely
Ok that's good. Are you willing to believe in that person place or thing?
What I mean are you willing to believe that no matter what this person place or thing is way more powerful than you.
Without a doubt
Great .. you're on the right path.
Now with that being said. Are you willing to make a decision to turn your will and your life over to, we'll call it, your higher power as YOU understand it. if you don't believe in God believe in "To whom ever this may concern". As long as you, Richi, are willing to turn it over.
I definitely believe in god and I am very willing
Ok, you're off to a good start.
