Today is day 36 of quitting w**d — and honestly, that’s how you know you’re on the other side… when you stop counting.

W**d helped me feel safe enough to stay in my body and actually feel and process what I needed to.
It started as medicine, but eventually it became a crutch — maybe even an addiction.

Instead of helping me, it was getting in my way.
It was keeping me in this artificially relaxed state, instead of letting my system shift between different nervous system states the way it’s meant to — responding to life as it happens.

And I was scared to stop.
I didn’t know if I’d be able to feel good in my body without it.
The first few weeks were rough — no motivation, real withdrawals — but it’s been worth it.

I don’t see it as bad. It really supported me when I needed it.
But I was done outsourcing my healing.
I don’t need it to access certain nervous system states.
My body already knows how to.

✨ I’ll be sharing more about plant “medicine”, addiction, and the nervous system — follow for more.
