Zewditu needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Zewditu is eight weeks into recovery and would welcome a mentor with lived experience.

I'm eight weeks 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Stay strong, Zewditu. Hope the doctors have good news. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Addis Ababa.
