Suren needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Peer mentor wanted by a person six months into recovery from cannabis dependence.

I'm six months into recovery from cannabis 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.
Thank you so much.

Good luck, Suren. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Saket.
rooting for you, Suren. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 14 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Sending good thoughts, Suren. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best.
