I'm ten 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. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

  • Rooting for you, María. Shared this with my family

    • you're not alone, María. Looking forward to the next update. God bless.

      • It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.
