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

I'm six 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Rooting for you. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of St. Petersburg.
Thinking of you and your family. Gave what I could, wish it was more. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Mbarara
So sorry you're going through this. Hope the doctors have good news. Please keep us posted. Blessings.
