MentoringMental health & recovery
Salim needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
A weekly call with someone who has been through it - that's the whole ask.

I'm ninety days 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Rooting for you, Salim. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care
Wishing you the best. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Love from Durham.
I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Jeddah but we're thinking of you. God bless.
Rooting for you, Salim. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
Good luck, Salim. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless.
Hang in there. Wishing Salim a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Greetings from Alcalá de Henares
