Adalynn needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Peer mentor wanted by a person ninety days into recovery from opioid addiction.

I'm ninety days into recovery from opioid 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Hope things get better soon. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Kadıköy.
Best of luck, Adalynn. Hope the doctors have good news. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it!
Wishing Adalynn a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.
You're not alone. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest.
So sorry you're going through this, Adalynn. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Mecca this morning. Thinking of Riverside.
