Mercy is ninety days into recovery and looking for a guide
A weekly call with someone who has been through it - that's the whole ask.

I'm ninety days into recovery from alcohol 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.

Thinking of you, Mercy. Get well soon. I hope August is when things finally get easier. God bless.
Best of luck. Your post was clear and honest. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
Best of luck, Mercy. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 17 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care!
Hang in there, Mercy. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best
Best of luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out.
