MentoringMental health & recovery
Léo needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
A weekly call with someone who has been through it - that's the whole ask.

I'm six months 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Thinking of you, Léo. Get well soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
You're not alone. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Paris.
So sorry you're going through this, Léo. Hope the doctors have good news. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out
I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Mandaue this morning.
So sorry you're going through this, Léo. Get well soon. Love from Kikuyu
So sorry you're going through this. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings
hang in there, Léo. Shared it with a few friends.
Sending strength. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I hope June is when things finally get easier. Love from Salem.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 29 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Monterrey!
Best of luck. Get well soon. My neighbor in Sydney donated after I showed her your page. All the best
Wishing you the best, Léo. Shared it with a few friends
