Peer mentor wanted by a person ninety days into recovery from cannabis dependence.

I'm ninety days into recovery from cannabis 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Good luck, Lucas. I hope things turn around soon.
Keep going. Wishing Lucas a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Thane
Hang in there, Lucas. Shared it with a few friends. I'll check back for the next update. God bless.
I hope things turn around soon. After 29 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
wishing you peace. Get well soon. Take care!
