Antonio needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery

Antonio is ten months into recovery and would welcome a mentor with lived experience.

Salerno
I'm ten months into recovery from alcohol dependence. 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.

      Thinking of you. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Los Angeles.

            Keep going. Shared it with a few friends. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.
