The harder I tried, the worse it got. Nothing changed when I arrived in my 12th step fellowship either. I was still different, still the odd man out.
Feeling like you don't quite fit in? You're not alone. In this episode of 'Take 12 Recovery Radio', Monty Dale Meyer, affectionately known as the Monty'man, tackles the concept of 'Terminal Uniqueness'. He shares his own struggles with feeling different and unworthy, and how he found solace and understanding through the Twelve Step programme. Monty recounts his personal journey of guilt and self-doubt, drawing parallels with the Apostle Paul's words from Romans 7:15.
He opens up about his early misconceptions of perfection within church communities and Twelve Step fellowships, believing he was the odd one out who couldn't measure up. But through the Fourth Step, Monty began to see that everyone is flawed and in need of grace, just like him. He encourages listeners to embrace their imperfections and seek strength in community and faith.
