Cristina 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 cannabis 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thanks for sharing this. Your post was clear and honest. We're a small family in Santos but we're thinking of you.
praying for you, Cristina. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best
Good luck. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of San Antonio.
Stay strong. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Madurai donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of San Antonio.
