Hyacinth needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Peer mentor wanted by a person eight weeks into recovery from alcohol dependence.

I'm eight weeks 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.

Best of luck, Hyacinth. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't give up. God bless
praying for you, Hyacinth. Get well soon. God bless
Sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best
I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Kyiv this morning. God bless
Sending strength, Hyacinth. Your post was clear and honest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Mandeville.
