Peer mentor wanted by a person ten months into recovery from opioid addiction.

I'm ten months into recovery from opioid 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.

- 1 call a week

Sending good thoughts, Vinod. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.
Keep going, Vinod. Shared this with my family. I hope November is when things finally get easier. All the best.

Good luck, Vinod. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care
This could happen to any of us. After 13 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Get well soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Aurangabad
Stay strong, Vinod. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Aurangabad.
