So, today October 26, 2025 I am making the conscious decision to stop smoking. I started smoking in 2017 after being diagnosed with, depression, PTSD, and severe anxiety and being prescribed high doses of medications. After trying the meds and not liking the effects I decided I to self medicate. But now I’m in this phase of my journey where I feel, self medicating is no longer effective for me. Here I go: Day 1.

Hi, I’m Kia. I’m on a journey of healing me. I’m here to get help unpacking the things I have yet to unpack. And have community that supports you while doing it.
