Aparecida is ten months into recovery and looking for a guide
A weekly call with someone who has been through it - that's the whole ask.

I'm ten months 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.
Glad we found this place.

Praying for you. Get well soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best
So sorry you're going through this, Aparecida. This could happen to any of us. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless!
best of luck. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't give up. Greetings from Manila.
