MentoringMental health & recovery
Carmen needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
A weekly call with someone who has been through it - that's the whole ask.

I'm ninety days 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.

Good luck, Carmen. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Wishing you peace. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care
praying for you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. Love from 6th of October City
Wishing Carmen a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I hope December is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Ciudad de México
Good luck, Carmen. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Setagaya so I could bring a meal
