I'm ten months into recovery from prescription-drug 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

      keep going, Jasmine. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless.

      • Hope things get better soon, Jasmine. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
