John is six months into recovery and looking for a guide
A weekly call with someone who has been through it - that's the whole ask.

I'm six months 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.
Glad we found this place.

Best of luck. Your post was clear and honest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Durgapur

Sending good thoughts, John. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to St. Petersburg so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Bristol
Good luck, John. Shared this with my family.

Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Bristol.
