Twelve Differences between Your Sponsor and Your Therapist: 1. Your sponsor isnt all that interested in the reasons you drank. 2. Your therapist thinks your root problem is your lack of self-esteem, negative self-image, and your poor self-concept. Your sponsor thinks your problem is a 3-letter word with no hyphens: YOU 3. Your therapist wants you to pamper your inner child. Your sponsor thinks it ought to be spanked. 4. Your sponsor thinks your inventory should be about you, not your parents. 5. Speaking of your parents, your sponsor tells you not to confront them, but to make amends to them. 6. The only time your sponsor uses the word closure is before the word mouth . 7. Your sponsor thinks boundaries are things you need to take down, not build up. 8. Your therapist wants you to love yourself first; your sponsor wants you to love others first. 9. Your therapist prescribes caretaking and medication. Your sponsor prescribes prayer-making and meditation. 10. Your sponsor thinks anger management skills are numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12. 11. Now that you havent drank in 6 months, your therapist thinks you should make a list of your goals and objectives for the next 5 years, starting with finishing up that college degree. Your sponsor thinks you should start today by cleaning the coffee pots, helping him carry a heavy box of literature to the jail, and making your bed. 12. Your sponsor wont lose his license to practice if he talks about God
