I'm eight weeks 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. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

            Best of luck, Joyce. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.

              keep going. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless
