Peer mentor wanted by a person eight weeks into recovery from prescription-drug dependence.

I'm eight weeks into recovery from prescription-drug 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.
Glad we found this place.

Take care. Get well soon. After 12 years in retail I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
