So I volunteered on the board of one of my 12-step fellowships for four years.

This is not the, like, super-impressive thing that you might think. Like, in other fellowships, you have to have tons of recovery, sometimes decades, and often, years of experience on committees and shit before you serve on the board. This one was small enough that they USED to get board members -- a few years earlier -- by fucking grabbing people at the annual convention and being like “YOU WANT TO SERVE ON THE BOARD, RIGHT?”

i am not even exaggerating, one of my fellow members had joined that way. basically because she didn’t have enough recovery yet to say no, lol.

Her “generation” of boardies had put some guidelines in place; my former sponsor had tried to get them to agree that someone should at least have worked all the steps before joining, and managed to at least convince them that people should have worked the first FOUR steps. (this was so bad I can’t even tell you, but I digress. In my time we managed to get it up to all twelve.)

Anyway. I was thinking about this today because somebody reminded me about the “Safety Communication Guidelines” we used to use on the Board.

I hated these things. Partly because they prohibited “strong language,” which I think most of us assumed meant swearing. And like, I can see how people might take swearing to be forceful and angry and scary. But for me it is often a tool to break the ice and sort of establish that we’re all just people here together. And we didn’t really have another way we did that.

And also because one of the rules was that we’d take a 5-10 minute break every hour so that we didn’t get burnt out and we NEVER DID. Every time I brought it up, people just voted to amend the rules so we skipped the breaks. It was a really workaholic group. People got burnt out a lot.

But I was looking at these things today. And one of them says that we will “stay present” when other people are speaking, like when someone is presenting another committee’s report.

Four years I served on that board. A year and a half ago, almost.

And not until TODAY did I realize that they just meant you had to stay in the damn room!!

I always thought they meant to stay, like, emotionally/mentally present and listen to people.

Because that was what I had the most trouble with. Because auditory processing, and mental spoons. 

Especially since, with no breaks, it meant “being present” for two or three hours at a stretch.

And because like of course you weren’t going to get up and leave whenever other people were talking, how blatant and rude would that be, they must mean something else!
