I think chewing 10x pieces of nicotine gum every day for 4+ years, has given me GERD. I chewed 15 thousand pieces of nicotine gum.

It gives me anxiety too BB.

Omg how do you tolerate all that nicotine? I would be incredibly sick and bouncing around a padded room.

I need the nicotine =[ You can't take it from me! *scratches arms*, ".. I need.. just.. a little more.."

No but I'll try and quit soon. Something (Such as GERD) had to happen, to get me to quit.

The GERD related stuff is much better after 6x Tums and bismuth subsalicylate. My mom and grandmother (Both were nurses) said "There's nothing wrong with your heart". I feel better.

We learn, every day..

"You're a fool.. You're gonna die on all these substances"

And I give them a wink and a smile.. I cry too.

They'll say "Grow up!" and I'm like "I've had DPDR, after thinking this universe was finite.. U don't understand"

They'll say "This life is fininte!"

"No.." I say.. The biggest fool, knows things that would surprise you.. Now let me sell gold coins at the market for some bread.

Today is my first day at my new job. Orientation from 10am to 2pm. Which consists of sitting at a computer for like 4 hours watching videos. It's easy cause I won't have to deal with customers for the 1st day. Woke up at 2am and couldn't get back to sleep. It's 4am now. Just staying up. I did sleep some at least. I'm wondering what my schedule is gonna be for the next week. I have no idea till I get there today.

I’m getting like 25 hours to 30 a week here. I was averaging getting 12-16 a week at Burlington. So this is better

I’m working on this too

I removed my debit card info from any shopping sites. So I’d have to go out of my way to get up and get up and go across the room to get my wallet out and re-enter all my card info which I’m unlikely to do because I’m lazy so it creates some resistance to spending randomly if you spend a lot online. Other than that as far as spending in stores in person take the amount of cash you need out first and leave your cards at home. You’re less likely to spend too much if you have a set amount and you see the money decreasing physically

They changed my upcoming Saturday shift from a 6 hour shift to a 9 hour shift. So I’ll be working till 11:15pm that day. Not getting home till after midnight with the bus. Then. Having to head out again around 6:40am Christmas Eve. So no sleep between shifts. But I get Christmas Day off.

Mindfulness!

I have everything up to date.. I want to suppress all of my ego, and be able to let go of it all.. Whilst growing, having fun..

All things are as organized as they can be. What do I do now? Things that bring me happiness would be - Hiking/skiing/walks, travelling, music, podcasts/listening to independent journalists, studying/learning about interests, family, socializing, self-improvement, spirituality/meditation, trying to help others/the world, abstract thinking and psychonaut stuff. I should watch movies or create some forms of art, writing... I plan to make a blog.. It'll just take time..

I will soon achieve self actualization and transcendence (NO JK!! Lol.. Idk how to do that..).. I need money.. People are so upset though yknow.. If I die tomorrow, I'll be ok.. Just put the new headset on..

I ask ChatGPT a lot of questions.. Infinity is good for me..

I have a lot of YouTube channels to look at (Including a psychiatrist, "HealthyGamerGG") - So that'll take a while. It's all set up. To eventually dive into all the things I've procrastinated.

Part of me doesn’t want to do this job. It’s so freaking stressful and overwhelming. The amount of customers is insane. And the back to back shifts coming up, on no sleep. Is gonna be a nightmare. I could be enjoying my holidays and relaxing. Like why am I doing this to myself , again

I don't want to communicate with anyone anymore. I will stay in solitude for a long time. And possibly smoke spirit molecules.

It’s good to pad your resume a bit. But if you find you can’t do it, there’s no shame.

The only thing I could suggest is to brush up on some computer skills and then apply for some office positions though a temp agency.

I was stuck with retail for six years for my first job. I moved to the city and had trouble finding anything until I was contacted by a temp agency and that got me to an office job. Hired full time, then let go (dissolved our department), and that helped me get my current job at a Canada wide insurance company (I got promoted twice in six years).

Just an idea if you want to try to get out of retail. Definitively brush up on computer skills, pad your resume with skills and be sure to include even ongoing schooling (even if you haven’t graduated yet). It’ll help you get past some automatic screening.
