I'm ninety days 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.

  • Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. Love from Cebu City.

    • Thinking of you and your family, Lakshmi. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. After 9 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Sydney.

      • Best of luck, Lakshmi. Looking forward to the next update. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care

        • So sorry you're going through this, Lakshmi. This could happen to any of us. All the best
