Huda needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery

A weekly call with someone who has been through it - that's the whole ask.

I'm four 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. Thank you for reading my story.

    Exactly what I needed

    I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.

    Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.

    • praying for you, Huda. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings!

      • Best of luck. Hope you get there. I hope September is when things finally get easier. All the best.

        • Take care. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Please keep us posted. God bless.

          • everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
