Back Cover Story: Microdosing

Through Motherhood Shame

Continued from page 40
Leafly offers this about microdosing "In the midst of a potency-obsessed market
where high THC marks mean everything, there is a growing community of cannabis
advocates that are pushing for less consumption as opposed to more. This tactic is
called “microdosing,” a growing trend as cannabis consumption becomes more main-
stream. Practitioners of microdosing are taking small amounts of cannabis in order to
reap the medical benefits of THC while avoiding its psychoactive effects that can inter-
fere with the demands of daily life."
Microdosing became my saving grace, and one of my tools in my toolkit. I was able
to still be a mom while at the same time breaking down the walls and using therapy to
confront my own feeling of shame, worthlessness and abandonment.
While microdosing is my personal choice and it is something that each person needs
to find for themselves I found that it is comparable to motherhood. It might never look
like what other people want or think you should be doing, but at the end of the day it
has to be right for you. After years of therapy, my medicinal cannabis use, creating a
tribe of other supportive mothers and listening more deeply to my own voice I can say
that those feelings have subsided. My feelings of shame and guilt although not every
woman's experience, it is mine. I am so grateful to have had the use of cannabis to
assist in being more present and appreciative of my son. No matter what happens I
know that I will be the best mom for my son.
