If you're dealing with nervous system sensitization and medication is part of your story — whether you're currently on it, actively tapering, or in full withdrawal — this video is for you.
Maggie breaks down the three most common situations she hears about and answers the question she gets asked constantly: does desensitization work apply to me given where I'm at with medication?
The short answer is yes. Your response to symptoms is the lever you have, no matter where you are in this process. Waiting for the "right" time to start the work is part of what keeps people stuck.
