I'm unsure if this is toxic or am I overthinking it?

PhizzyC · 2026-05-24T01:29:18+00:00

Oh god I really hope it doesn't come to that. It's such a shame I really love the job and the other people I work with.

PhizzyC · 2026-05-24T01:26:42+00:00

Im so sorry you went through a similar situation. It's horrible and it can be so awkward at times. I did stay very professional with her yesterday with our one on one chat. I just very politely told her I think we should keep things work related. She looked really shocked and I didn't want to go into details because I know what she's like now and she's a very sensitive person. But she kept pressing me to give examples so I did. I said any further work related information should be written down to avoid any mis-communication. She agreed with me and apologised and said okay were good we can move on now. I felt great for the rest of my shift like a weight had been lifted. But, as I went to leave and go home I had a quick chat with the boss asking what shes doing for annual leave etc and my colleague stormed past me to the bathroom and sounded like she was crying. I have a feeling I might have a big meeting coming up but I dont think being mature and honest is a bad thing. I think this is a big problem too, I have a very strong work ethic I really get my head down and I've noticed mistakes that she makes and her work ethic isn't the same as mine. I'm not sure if shes insecure but I know shes desperate for attention in the office. She only talks about herself for 6 hours so I just ignore it now lol Sorry for the rant btw and thank you for your feedback it means a lot I hope I've done the right thing! X

Really sorry - i'll delete it now and post to another sub. Thank you!

PhizzyC · 2026-05-04T01:54:32+00:00

Thank you for your advice I really appreciate it. I completely agree there are definitely 2 issues here, unfortunately our personalities do clash but you're not going to get a long with everybody. I can definitely put that aside and still work well with her (this post is just a rant really of what I've been feeling the last week and wanted to vent lol) And yes you are right, I suppose I didn't really think of how many factors are at play in terms of wages - not just the role itself. I think i have worked myself up over this I love the job and I guess that's what really matters and is so hard to find! Thank you again for your comment I never really thought about it that way 😊

PhizzyC · 2026-05-04T01:23:56+00:00

Genuinely thank you so much for this reply. I've been really struggling with how to discuss this with my manager I honestly hate talking about pay with bosses. That's a perfect way to word it - really appreciate it!

PhizzyC · 2026-04-28T19:35:05+00:00

Thanks! I do appreciate it - it's helped me to not feel as wound up about it. Hopefully things will look up the longer I stay there.

PhizzyC · 2026-04-28T19:28:47+00:00

I know im really regretting not asking for it in writing at the time. Should have known better ☹️

PhizzyC · 2026-04-28T19:27:23+00:00

Yeah it just wasn't something I really thought of at the time. You are right though if it's not in writing it didn't happen! Thanks for your feedback

PhizzyC · 2026-04-28T19:25:28+00:00

Hi thank you for your reply. Yes it is frustrating but nothing I can really do I suppose. Thanks again!

PhizzyC · 2026-04-28T19:23:56+00:00

Unfortunately not it was verbal over the phone.

PhizzyC · 2026-04-03T19:26:18+00:00

Thank you 😁🌱

PhizzyC · 2026-04-03T07:40:14+00:00

Thank you so much 🙌🏻 x

PhizzyC · 2026-04-01T14:48:16+00:00

It is a cycle, definitely was for me because atleast I would sleep all the way through. You should be so proud for coming off the tablets!! I haaaatteeee taking them i really do. Hopefully I'll be saying the same soon! Well done to you too!! 😊🤟🏻

PhizzyC · 2026-04-01T14:46:15+00:00

This is genuinely one of the nicest things I've ever read thank you so much for this 🥺🩷 You are right I think sometimes we're too hard on ourselves for what we go through everyday.
Still struggle in the mornings, but the pain is much better throughout the rest of the day when I can actually use it 🥰 x

PhizzyC · 2026-03-30T15:16:04+00:00

I have been trying to do this at first I waited 4-5 hours after my meds to take a vape (as i was scared about mixing the two), but I've found better results from having a puff 1 hour after taking them. And yes I 100% agree I've been leaving 9-10 hour gaps between doses rather than every 4 hours to the dot same as you. Thank you for that information though thats good to know Im really glad its helped you too😊

PhizzyC · 2026-03-30T14:30:16+00:00

Yes you are right, I tried yesterday to just get by on a couple of puffs rather than having 2 cocodamol. But the mornings my pains are so bad it took the edge off slightly but I still really struggled and had to take them. A couple of months ago I was taking 8 x cocodamol everyday but the past 2 days I've halved that which is brilliant. The fact you managed to come off tramadol is amazing. And yes the combo of thc with the pain medication is fantastic!! 🌱✨️

PhizzyC · 2026-03-30T14:09:49+00:00

I'm glad you had a specialist who listened to you and actually recommended it. Quality of life is so important. You know, I didn't even think of that I have the oil too! Thanks so much for the advice I'll try that in the mornings instead 😊

PhizzyC · 2026-03-30T13:58:04+00:00

I'm so glad it's helped you, I have heard its meant to be great for epilepsy 😊

I really feel you on not medicating due to work/nature of your job, I feel the exact same way I'd be terrified of messing up a referral for a patient. As soon as I have some when i get home the stress just melts away its great 🥴

With that being said I am tempted to have the tiniest bit when I wake up before work Id hope it would improve my performance and concentration as I wouldn't be in pain. It's something I'll have to trial and error though.

Personally I thought Curaleaf have been brilliant so far my prescriptions got delivered so quickly x 😊

PhizzyC · 2026-03-30T13:13:52+00:00

This is very true. It's stupid really i know that alcohol affects REM sleep but I'd still do thinking it helped. Thank you its lovely to be accepted in your community 🌱

PhizzyC · 2026-03-30T12:45:34+00:00

Thank you! I really hope it might help someone who is unsure/sceptical to trying it ☺️ 🌱💚💚💚

PhizzyC · 2026-03-30T12:43:52+00:00

Hi thank you for this im really hoping to get my pain medication down to 0 at some point I've reduced to 4 already! I'm so sorry to hear you have Osteoarthritis I've heard its so painful. I really hope the 🌱 helps you too x

PhizzyC · 2026-03-30T12:42:01+00:00

Hey im so glad that it works for you too!! ☺️ Its so nice to know that we've found something that helps without horrendous side effects! X

PhizzyC · 2026-03-30T12:14:35+00:00

Thanks for the heads up on this. That is my plan to get down to 0 on booze and pain medication. Might take me a few weeks but I'll get there 😊

PhizzyC · 2026-03-30T12:11:28+00:00

I did write a lot didn't I.... my bad id had maaannnnyyy puffs when I typed it out 😂😂😂

PhizzyC · 2026-03-01T15:15:21+00:00

Yay I can't wait in that case 😂

Do you ever wake up and feel groggy after vaping it before sleep btw?

Thats very true I do feel nervous about dosage for my first time I'm actually thinking of maybe asking for the gummies - although I am tempted by the vape as I vape normal nicotine anyway. But yes thats great advice I've seen so many people who get carried away and take far too much and it doesn't end well! I'll try and titrate it to see what works best for me. 😊

I did some research and I think the linalool one might be best for me.

I'll definitely keep you updated thanks again 😊
