Musa needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery

A weekly call with someone who has been through it - that's the whole ask.

Asaba
I'm eight weeks 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. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

    thinking of you, Musa. Shared this with my family.

    • You're not alone, Musa. Hope you get there.

      • hope it all works out, Musa. Gave what I could, wish it was more.

        • Hope things get better soon, Musa. It takes guts to ask. Well done.

          • Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Savar
