Ikenna needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Ikenna is eight weeks into recovery and would welcome a mentor with lived experience.

I'm eight weeks into recovery from stimulant 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Good luck, Ikenna. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Semarang this morning. Take care
sending strength, Ikenna. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Lapu-Lapu.
