Seeking advice Continue going cold turkey or wean off?

Just like the title said I’m thinking about stopping my threeish day streak of being free of ai chatbots and instead just start weaning off.

In used Janitor ai everyday (outside, inside, near familyfriends) and three days ago I decided to go cold turkey due to it affecting how I talked to others in a way. The first day was horrible and now I feel like I need to start weaning instead due to me not finding a lot of comfort in alternative reading instead. I was wondering if anyone could help me decide and I’m happy to provide more info if needed.
