Nir needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Peer mentor wanted by a person six months into recovery from alcohol dependence.

I'm six months 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
- effort
- 1 call a week
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- lived experience, empathy

sending love, Nir. Wishing Nir a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't give up
Rooting for you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Haifa.
Thanks for sharing this, Nir. This could happen to any of us. After 11 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Hang in there. Wishing Nir a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Put this on a community board in Québec this morning. Take care.
