I'm ten months into recovery from stimulant addiction. I attend meetings and see a counselor, but the weeks between meetings are the hardest. I'd love a mentor - someone who has a year or more of recovery and who would be willing to talk once a week.
I'm not looking for a replacement for treatment. I'm looking for someone who understands what a bad Tuesday night feels like.
I'd prefer someone who's happy to do video calls. Any country is fine. I'll be respectful of your time and boundaries, and happy to pay it forward later.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
- effort
- 1 call a week
- format
- Online or by phone

rooting for you, Abigail. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
Wishing Abigail a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
Keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings
Sending good thoughts, Abigail. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Thanks for sharing this. Get well soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from San Jose.
gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Philadelphia
Hang in there. Hope the doctors have good news. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Fresno.
