Danica needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Peer mentor wanted by a person eight weeks into recovery from gambling addiction.

I'm eight weeks into recovery from gambling 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.
- effort
- 1 call a week
- format

Thinking of you, Danica. Hope you get there. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
stay strong, Danica. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Sending strength. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Stay strong, Danica. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Bergamo
wishing you peace, Danica. Wishing Danica a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Brooklyn.
