Kavitha needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Kavitha is eight weeks into recovery and would welcome a mentor with lived experience.

I'm eight weeks into recovery from stimulant 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.
- effort
- 1 call a week
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- lived experience, empathy

Thanks for sharing this, Kavitha. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
Good luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Sending good thoughts, Kavitha. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.
Thinking of you. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out.
You're not alone, Kavitha. Hope this works out for you. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings.
