Funmilayo is six months into recovery and would welcome a mentor with lived experience.

I'm six months 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Hope the doctors have good news. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Love from Salem.
You're not alone, Funmilayo. Wishing Funmilayo a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
take care. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Kano.
Take care, Funmilayo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Cartagena.
