I'm four months into recovery from prescription-drug dependence. 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. Thank you so much.

                          Good luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Ottawa but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Macon.

                          • thinking of you, Lucas. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
