Terry is ten months into recovery and looking for a guide
A weekly call with someone who has been through it - that's the whole ask.

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.

Rooting for you. Get well soon. After 22 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Dhaka.
Thinking of you, Terry. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Manchester
Praying for you, Terry. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side.
Hope the doctors have good news. Thinking of Manchester
Hang in there, Terry. It takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Rooting for you, Terry. Wishing Terry a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
Keep going, Terry. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 20 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Albany.
