Ting needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Peer mentor wanted by a person ten months into recovery from gambling addiction.
🇳🇿 New Zealand264 views
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.

Hope things get better soon, Ting. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together. God bless.
Stay strong, Ting. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
Keep going. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Love from Enugu
hang in there. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Auckland.
hope it all works out. It takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
