Fernando needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Fernando is ninety days into recovery and would welcome a mentor with lived experience.

I'm ninety days into recovery from cannabis 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Regensburg.
Take care. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My neighbor in Moscow donated after I showed her your page. Take care
