I'm four months into recovery from opioid 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Sending good thoughts, Femi. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
Thinking of you and your family, Femi. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't give up.
Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Wishing Femi a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Take care
