Another tip
SING
SING AT THE TOP OF YOUR LUNGS.
You will recieve huge amounts of endorphin dumps.
.
Fake it till you make it gets you a long way.
.
Bubble baths, blowing bubbles,
GO FLY A KITE .
JUMP ROPE
Skip to the next house and back.
Do what you gave you happiness as a kid.
Go play tea party.
Watch kids movies.
Get the picture?

Hello @brightwings,

I hope all is going well for you. It has been a while since you last posted on Connect and I was wondering how you are doing.

Will you post an update?

Hi @brightwings,
It has been a long time since you posted. I used to follow this thread when my partner spent a year getting off of Effexor, and your story inspired me. As a Healer myself I actually think of you often as you were one of the first people who embodied many of the things I now believe to be essential to healing trauma and the body. I was also fascinated by your experiences with plant medicine "before it was cool".

I actually decided to create an account so I could message you and ask you if you are still kicking around here on these boards, or if there is any place I can message you to chat about healing and energy and life. Long shot perhaps but I can't see how to PM someone on here =)
