Hello,

I am looking for friends for support that are OA members. I recently joined and looking for some fellow friends. I do not have a sponsor yet.

Add me as a friend if your a OA member please.

    Sort of. But not how you're thinking. Anonymity is outlined in the Traditions to mean two things:

    -That in regard to our OA membership we should not use our last names outside the fellowship.
    -That we do not divulge to people outside the fellowship who ELSE is an OA member. You can "break" someone's anonymity by telling an "outsider" who you met in a meeting. Everyone has a reasonable expectation that their membership in OA won't be divulged to folks outside of OA.

    We are not anonymous with each other. Within OA, we are a fellowship - much like an extended family.

    Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of O.A. It disciplines the Fellowship to govern itself by principles rather than personalities. We are a society of peers. We strive to make known our program of recovery, not individuals who participate in the program.

    I've just begun attending OA meetings (by phone because there are few meetings in my area). Any other OA members, please feel free to add me as well.
