Olumide needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Olumide is ten months into recovery and would welcome a mentor with lived experience.

I'm ten months into recovery from gambling addiction. 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.

Hope things get better soon. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings
So sorry you're going through this, Olumide. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Los Angeles but we're thinking of you. God bless.
