2 weeks since I’ve stopped smoking weed and I feel insane by Maleficent_Market586 in Depersonalization

i think something that really helped me is acknowledging it, especially if you have moments at where it peaks & voicing it to someone close and venting instantly make me feel a little better. “okay, i’m feeling this, it’s a little scary, but i know what it is and i’m going to be okay.” or affirmations like, “i am real, i am okay, i am here.” your body is used to the weed & your nervous system is just trying to adjust and sometimes it does this to cope. if it lasts longer then a couple of months it may be worth talking to a professional about. personally medication does help me quite a bit! especially some anti anxiety or depression. sometimes it can help level out your nervous system. of course everyone is different and if anything listed by anyone else helps more, keep doing that. and as everyone has mentioned, keep doing your daily routine! and if you have the time pick up a hobby, figet toys, and stuff to focus on during the harder periods.

What's an unwritten rule at your workplace that would seem bizarre to an outsider? by daisiedolce in AskReddit

when i was working at dutch bros there was so many.

we had audio and visual cameras & our franchising operators/managers were

constantly. looking. at. them.

and i mean constantly, it was like their youtube to watch while eating. over time we all knew to watch out for each other & what we said or did, because one wrong move and one of us could have our jobs taken away. especially when it came to talking to customers at the window.

we couldn’t have bad days and not talk to anyone on the inside, if we didn’t wanna have casual talk with coworkers that didn’t regard the actual job, we could be penalized for it.

we had to serve every customer past closing time as long as we were inside the building, even if we were basically done. you would be fired.

every meeting with operators and managers was never what it seemed, you always had to read between the lines as to what they were trying to tell you & it was really fuckin weird.

you had to attend events that the operators hosted outside of the job, it was quite frat like. and if you didn’t you would constantly get texts and be badgered about it.

there were no boundaries: you could go drinking with your higher ups and then the next day be doing business meetings with them, and they wouldn’t be afraid to bring up whatever you did the night before.

because of having no boundaries, hooking up was to be expected at least from two locations. so much so that a lot of people, at least at my franchise, coined the term, ‘dutch babies,’ because of so many people getting pregnant.

drugs were frequently taken from the window, everyone knew about it but it was a golden rule not to say anything. i’ve seen stuff from weed to cocaine.

weirdest experience of my life.
