Emma 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 alcohol 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. Glad we found this place.

  • Wishing you peace, Emma. Wishing Emma a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

    • Thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

        I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Beersheba this morning. Greetings from Beersheba.

        • Thinking of you, Emma. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'll check back for the next update. All the best.
