Cooper needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Cooper is four months into recovery and would welcome a mentor with lived experience.

I'm four 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Best of luck, Cooper. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Take care. I hope things turn around soon. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.
You're not alone. Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Jaipur so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Orlando
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Glasgow
