Juan needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Juan is four months into recovery and would welcome a mentor with lived experience.

I'm four 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.
Glad we found this place.

shared this with my family. Thinking of Chandler
A colleague of mine might know someone for this in Arizona. I'll ask around and let you know.
