Ella is four months into recovery and looking for a guide
A weekly call with someone who has been through it - that's the whole ask.

I'm four months 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
- effort
- 1 call a week
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- lived experience, empathy

Wishing you peace, Ella. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. God bless.
Wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Lalitpur.
You're not alone, Ella. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.
rooting for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Warsaw this morning. All the best
So sorry you're going through this, Ella. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out
Hope the doctors have good news. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Bursa.
Praying for you, Ella. Hope the doctors have good news. Thinking of Toronto
Wishing you peace, Ella. Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like!
Rooting for you, Ella. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from Sylhet.
