Gianna needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Gianna is four months into recovery and would welcome a mentor with lived experience.

I'm four months 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
- effort
- 1 call a week
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- lived experience, empathy

Thinking of you and your family. Wishing Gianna a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Put this on a community board in San Jose this morning. Blessings.
Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Hồ Chí Minh City.
Sending strength. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.
Best of luck. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together. Blessings
Hang in there. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't give up. Love from Adama.
Hang in there, Gianna. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 29 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
Hope things get better soon. Hope the doctors have good news. My neighbor in San Diego donated after I showed her your page
