Peer mentor wanted by a person six months into recovery from opioid addiction.

I'm six months into recovery from opioid 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

    So sorry you're going through this, Jepkoech. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope August is when things finally get easier. God bless.

      It takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Dar es Salaam
