I'm ten 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
- effort
- 1 call a week
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- lived experience, empathy

looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Mississauga so I could bring a meal.
Sending strength. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Quezon City.
Praying for you. Shared it with a few friends. I hope June is when things finally get easier.
Take care, Teresita. Looking forward to the next update. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Quezon City.
Hope it all works out. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Leeds so I could bring a meal.
Sending strength. Looking forward to the next update. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Quezon City.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope June is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Cox's Bazar.
Keep going, Teresita. Get well soon. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best
Thanks for sharing this. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Love from Kinondoni.
Good luck. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Gatineau but we're thinking of you. Blessings
Wishing you the best. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't give up. Blessings
So sorry you're going through this, Teresita. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Peshawar.
