Sibel needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Peer mentor wanted by a person ten months into recovery from gambling addiction.

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.
Glad we found this place.

rooting for you. Hope the doctors have good news. All the best
look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 26 years in construction I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Blessings.
sending good thoughts, Sibel. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
Wishing you peace. Hope you get there. Sent it to 8 people at work.
Hope it all works out, Sibel. Hope you get there. Please keep us posted
Take care, Sibel. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Quezon City
I hope things turn around soon. My neighbor in Zagazig donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
Thinking of you and your family. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Latina

Thanks for sharing this, Sibel. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care
hang in there, Sibel. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
