Hi Eve. I was given a month to find a sponsor. I went to meetings and was lucky enough to find a great guy to sponsor me. Though my issue was drugs and his was alcohol, he has proven to be just fine. I just narrowed down my choices and asked the best remaining choice to sponsor me. Since you're allowed to get a temp sponsor, you won't have to make a 100% perfect match. Nothing is 100%. As far as the dual diagnosis, I don't see that should be a problem for a good, insightful person you choose. I know you'll do fine.
