You may be thinking of the old saying "none the worse for wear". It means that someone or something has gone through a stressful time (wear) and has come through it with no permanent damage ('none the worse', or 'no worse'). You could think of it as: I'm not worse off even though I have been worn down a bit.

The phrase "worst for wear" is a variant of the original phrase "worse for wear," which means showing signs of damage or wear and tear. It typically refers to an object or person that appears tired, worn out, or used up.
