When “Natural” Didn’t Feel Right

I bought ashwagandha because I wanted to feel better—less anxious, less on edge, less like my body was always betraying me. A week in, the only thing I really felt was numb. Not the calm I’d hoped for, just a kind of quiet that pressed on my head and made everything feel far away. I kept waiting for relief, but mostly I just noticed how strange it was to not feel much at all. I want to believe in gentle fixes. I want to trust that something out there will make the knot in my stomach loosen. But sometimes, even the things that are supposed to help just leave me more confused about what’s actually wrong. #TryingToFeelBetter #AnxietyDiaries #NotWhatIExpected #Health #Diet
