I'm ten 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. Glad we found this place.

          take care, Favour. Your post was clear and honest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings.

          • Sending love, Favour. Hope this works out for you.

            • Good luck. Hope you get there. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.

              • Wishing you the best, Favour. This could happen to any of us. God bless.

                • Rooting for you. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Chicago.

                  • Sending strength. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'll check back for the next update. Take care
