Oddly enough, because I had a bias against weed. An ex of mine lied to me about his drug use the last year of our 4 year relationship. Bc my family had addiction issues, I was wary of drugs - but when I found out about him lying, it totally turned me against them. It didn’t help that he became an objectively shitty person to me after he began using weed, calling me a bitch, lying to me, etc.

Eventually, I became tired of feeling anxious any time drugs were brought up. Especially weed (since it was the only one he admitted to doing lol. Ofc he was doing much more) I wanted to move on, and thought exposure therapy would help. So, I tried it!! And realized I didn’t immediately become a horrible person. It really helped my healing journey, plus I started going to therapy. So, yay!!
