I take a number of medications on a daily basis to help with various ailments, one of which is chronic pain. I've been on a steady pain management regimen for several years now. Sometimes I can't line up my refills with my next appointments and thus go into a forced detox for a few days or a week, which is absolutely horrible - the sickness, shakes, insane cravings that make you want to go find a street dealer, and general inability to relax. I hate it. Not to mention the pain for which the treatment is intended.
Anyway, I recently had the pleasure of reading Mrs. Penry's book on Knot Magic, so I thought I'd see if I could develop a working to ease my suffering until my next appointment. And it absolutely worked! I'm 7 days into detox now and have experience very few negative side effects - no nausea, slightly upset stomach but not losing water, and am generally relaxed.
It's very simple: I took two chords - one I keep on my person and the other I destroyed. In the one on my person I have two knots: one to bind the craving, and one to bind the physical side effects (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, etc).
On the other chord I tied three knots, binding anxiety, lethargy, and depression. Intuition told me to burn this one rather than keep it.
Easiest detox I've ever had. My prescription gets filled in two days. Were it not that I'd be hobbling on cane until I could afford surgery I'd just forego it at this point.
Thank you, Mrs Penry!
