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

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

Keep going, Paisley. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out.
