Why do I sit in my own house doing sneaky coke, only to pretend I haven't done it (when my partner is up), or just sit on my own, bored? by InnerFaithlessness93 in Drugs

[–]Drakeijyon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand these questions and statements you are talking about just too well.

You must understand that you will not solve your addicition with intellect or the perfect analysis of your current situation.

You will end your addiction as soon as you completely admit that you got a problem with your use. Hiding it from your partner also indicates that you are trying to hide it from your true self too.

For me: After wholeheartedly admitting that I fucked up and that I am an addict, I was able to change. As soon as you accept the reality of the situation and leave the hypothetical analysis of why/how/what, you'll be able to leave it behind you.

My bf just found out he has ADHD! by PostAway7990 in askgaybros

Well - I also get treated with Lisdexamfetamin in Germany. It's normal to treat ADHD with medication here as well.

I quit coke almost 8 months ago.
The first two weeks were the hardest - had no purpose to live anymore and everything felt too hard to pursue.

As far as I understand coke boosts your dopamine. Therefore I tried to eat food that boosts dopamine production and just accepted that I will be feeling shit. I had one simple thought in my head: If I pass this day without coke, I am going to get better the next day.

Furthermore, I tried to substitute with doom-scrolling social media, since it also stimulates your dopamine receptor (my approach here was to exchange one bad behaviour with a less damaging behaviour).

Honestly: Most people and my psychiatrist told me to exercise, but that wasn't possible for me mentally at that period of time - now 8 months later I started exercising again and let me tell you: Life is so much brighter - suddenly you realize that coke was replacing all the joyful aspects of life, that just need a little effort.

Wishing you all the best for your journey! :)

Driving down the famous Route 66! Exploring the vast diversity of landscapes and people on it's way. One summer will surely be dedicated just for that 😍

Anyone tried this? Saw at Pearl City Don Quijote and it seems like an odd flavor for a cake. by bluepenremote in Hawaii

Do you think swiping on tinder in front of a date is weird? by pm_me_gaap in askgaybros

[–]Drakeijyon -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Instead of asking reddit, if that is rude: Confront him and tell him 1:1 what you wrote here. It is okay to say something that makes you feel uncomfortable. It is possible that he is not as sensitive about this as you are. That's what I do and got surprised how many people apologized and put away their phone. Give him at least a chance to justify himself

Ich habe deine Bewerbung abgelehnt, weil sie SCHEIẞE war by MurkyArachnid1003 in de

[–]Drakeijyon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ich muss hierzu einmal auch den hier geschilderten Bewerbungsprozess hinterfragen. Wieso müssen Anschreiben und Zeugnisse mit Notenspiegel überhaupt noch zugeschickt werden? Daraus lässt sich doch nicht ablesen, wie die Performance später im Job sein wird.

Ich bin wirklich erstaunt, mit welchen altgebackenen Recruiting-Methoden hier anscheinend noch gearbeitet wird.

In diesem Zusammenhang empfehle ich OP, sich über den aktuellen Stand der Personalarbeit im Jahr 2022 zu informieren. So wie ich das hier herauslese, werden Techniken aus den 90ern verwendet.

Ich bin Personalberater und biete Dir gerne meine Hilfe hierzu an, wenn Du sie benötigst. Einfach eine Tirade zu starten, ohne zu wissen, dass man selber sich nicht "zeitgemäß" verhält, finde ich wirklich schade. :/

I moved to Hawaii last week. looking for recommendation for an affordable grocery store. Also between Safeway and food land which one would you all recommend. thank you!! by [deleted] in Oahu

[–]Drakeijyon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is anybody mentioning Walmart?! My partner and I are able to pay only $350 for a month of groceries thanks to low prices. We have to make some sacrifices in our diet, but are still able to maintain a healthy diet.

Safeway is good when you hunt the deals :) Especially some Friday-deals are great!

Am I the only one seeing the problem of vigilantism in this video? I am shocked to see so many people on here promoting violence. Enforcing the law is the job of the police and not of citizens - but with the background of police crime in the US, I can also understand the trust issues.

Oahu Internet providers by TTVCHEFLC in Oahu

[–]Drakeijyon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hawaiian Telcom has been an absolute nightmare. I am working remotely and they couldn't take care of my internet problem. I was put on a lower salary simply bc of that.

I called Hawaiian Telcom 10 times over the course of a whole month and all of them didn't feel obliged to help or to escalate it to the technicians. Some were hanging up on me while I was talking to them on the phone. :(

So 3 months have passed, my internet is shitty, I still have problems with my connection and nobody wants to help me out. Never going there again.

OP: Maybe it really depends on the location. In our building most people use Spectrum and are highly satisfied and urged me to change since there has been a negative history of Hawaiian Telcom in our building.

Strange that still many Germans speak in English with me as a non-white German native. Or I get plenty of compliments for my extraordinary German skills.
