Soledad needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Soledad 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.
I hope life is good to you.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.
Wishing Soledad a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Take care
Hope things get better soon, Soledad. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Pune donated after I showed her your page. Love from Pune!
Take care, Soledad. This could happen to any of us. I'll check back for the next update
