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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

  • Take care, Michael. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless.

    • Keep going. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Pretoria donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.

      • Best of luck. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick!

        • Wishing you peace, Michael. Gave what I could, wish it was more

          • Hope it all works out, Michael. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

            • Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out

                      Sending love, Michael. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Guarulhos this morning. Thinking of Tacoma

                          thinking of you and your family, Michael. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day

                          • You're not alone, Michael. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. All the best
