Growth Through Service
I
came into CoDA just over three years ago. I had been in an on again, off again
dysfunctional relationship. Something had to change. My patterns of behaviour
in relationships were unhealthy and no longer served me well.
I
found CoDA and I never looked back. I joined a CoDA group quickly, which is
still my home group. I found a sponsor – who I also still have today.
With
my sponsor I worked through the First 14 Days and found that they unpacked a
lot of issues from my childhood. Whilst I am still working through many of
those issues, I now today, have come to a loving and caring place with my mum,
who I viewed as my key codependent in my life.
I’ve
worked through the 12 Steps twice now, each time peeling a little more of that
onion skin away.
I
hold a service position at an Intergroup as part of my 12th Step service.
When
I look back to who I was 3 years ago when I came into CoDA, I can see how much
I have grown.
Just
for today I choose to only be in healthy relationships with my family and
friends.
