I'm ten months 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

    hang in there. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Lahore.

    • Wishing you the best, Caroline. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.

      • Hope things get better soon. Hope you get there. Please keep us posted. Love from Lalitpur.

        • Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Mwanza but we're thinking of you.

          • Sending love. Wishing Caroline a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.

            • stay strong, Caroline. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Thinking of Kisumu.

              • Thanks for sharing this, Caroline. Wishing Caroline 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.

                • Thinking of you, Caroline. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Kisumu!

                  • Hang in there, Caroline. Shared it with a few friends. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Kisumu!
