I think this is probably true, I need to learn this. Please teach me!

IF you are using Nicotine gum (or the patch) to quit smoking I say Great, just know that it continues the actual addition it just gets rid of the habit of smoking.
In 1986 I quit smoking - cold turkey, it was one of the hardest things I have ever done, I did start going through at least 1 box of TicTacs a day for the first couple months (do they even still sell TicTacs?)
Just know that as long as you don't dwell on them the urges to smoke do go away and it gets less and less over time, however my doctor told me and he was correct, that for as long as I smoked, thats how many years I would still get cravings. (of course the longer it was the less frequest and strong they were).
Good Luck.
You mean if someone smokes for twenty years they will crave it for 20 more if they decide to quit?!? That's tough. 🤪

Oh boy. This might be a lot less severe case but my mom is so annoying to me. She tries to involve herself in my life so much but I can't deal with her. This poor woman. I feel like all she needs is some attention but I feel like the way she neglected me as a child has made me resentful. I forgive her for everything but she erks me to no end and she's not even that bad, i wish I could hug her every day and tell her I love her. One day I'm going to overcome this. I've heard you should treat people like they are the best versions of themselves or who they have the potential to be at their best. My poor mom.😔☹️😭

Sounds like a hard decision. Do you have another job lined up?
It was a hard decision and I question whether or not I made the right decision. Also, after I went to church I got the feeling I should have just stayed working there. Sometimes I have a hard time understanding what heavenly father wants me to do. But I used to have a job that was both making me happy and keeping me healthy although I lost that job due to my own mistakes I feel like there is another opportunity for me out there that will make me feel fulfilled. What can I do to get heavenly father to bless me again in such a way?

No. I have no idea what did or did not happen. I'm saying that not remembering something from 15 years ago doesn't mean there's anything wrong with your brain.
Edit: Note: I'm also not saying there is or is not something wrong with your brain.
It's all good bro, I also have no idea about those things but here's some hashtags. #career suicide #dramatic #self alienating #denial #attention whore #akward af #put me out of my misery #we make our own hell #help! #save my life #my poor manager

Not being able to remember something that happened 15 years ago is not a false memory. Sometimes I don't remember things from an hour ago. Granted, my attention tends to wander...but still... Brain scan? Let's not be so dramatic.
Also, your saying something probably did happen?

Ok I guess I'm just hoping it's a false memory, to be completely honest.

I feel like I might have said something offensive about twelve or more years ago to a co-worker before I started working there.i only started 3 or 4 months ago. I think they might have given me a hint but I can't be sure. I told my manager about it but she doesn't know how to help and I also told her that I might have to quit or get transfered. I might have said something or it might have just been an inappropriate look. It might not have been me also. It might have been someone I was there with at the time. She said it might be because I'm working nights. It feels like a guilty conscience. I don't know if I posted this before but the way that I started working here is sort of interesting too. I didn't have a job and I fasted and I had a dream of my wife's great grandmother who had passed and in the dream she told me to apply at a place like this and within a few weeks I was working there. I've been praying alot about working at this place ever since I started and I've never been so involved in a workplace before, at least not emotionally or spiritually. It's really messing with me.

I think I read about someone on this forum who had possible false memories but I couldn't find the post. I almost quit my job today because I think I might have said something to seriously offend someone at my work 15 years prior to being employed there.i think I need a doctor to scan my brain.

Don't worry about it. Work the schedule you are given, ignore the envious woman.
Hey my hours went back up today and I heard another complaint any thoughts?

Am I tripping or is this other lady taking notes of my schedule?

I think I might have been singled out because of the extra day I get. They took that from next week. They can have it. Although theyre gonna regret it with all the upper Deckers they get in that store. I'm the janitor btw.

Ok guys I didn't mean it literally about snitches. I just meant that maybe telling on someone is kind of the childish way of handling the problem that might not end well. How can I make this person my friend? How can we work well together?

It's a girl

If you're getting positive commendation from other workmates then I say - ignore the difficult people. Sometimes, when you say "I get the feeling of being squeezed out, don't belong, unfairly judged, etc.", it can be a projection of your anxiety for those people. If you stop focusing on that feeling, then it may be that it's easy to just ignore them and focus instead on the people giving you positive vibes.
So, okay... this will sound harsh but this is based on my experience as a student and then as a mother of teen-agers. Bullies target certain people. They don't just bully everyone. When I was growing up, it's pretty easy to spot the "targets". They're usually the "odd one out" (like, the fat kid, the gay kid, the kid with acne, the kid that wear glasses, the kid with a "funny" name like Forrest - his mother couldn't have possibly predicted Forrest Gump would be a thing, etc. etc.). But in addition to that, they're the ones who do not have self-confidence and don't have many friends. Bullies like to single those people out because they are for sure not going to get much push back. So, when I became a mother of 2 boys, I made sure to teach my kids self-confidence and the resilience to know their own worth in the middle of a crowd of people telling them they "don't belong".
Your right, it was harsh. But thanks anyway. I was hoping for more of ideas of how to help this person maybe idk. Something more important I guess then just ignoring them. Let me know if you come up with something.

Ok guys I'm getting really upset at work and I really wanna figure this out. Just a little back story. When I was out of work I prayed and fasted and I had a dream and in my dream I was told to work at this place. I applied and got hired and now I really feel like I'm unfairly targeted. I know I do a good job I literally run from place to to save time I scrub on my hands and knees I sweat every day I been told by some that I clean more than anyone they have ever seen and others tell me I do very good as well. I don't want to quit for two reasons. I feel like I was put here for a reason, and also I just don't like the idea of quiting. Why am I getting the feeling of being squeezed out, I don't belong, or I'm being unfairly judged. Why so much drama in this retail environment. How much could actually be at stake here?!? I mean if this was a big $$ job then I'd understand, But this is southern California retail.

Thanks mores, it was helpful.😊

I read in the bom profets who cried unto the Lord all day and all night, but how did they do it without being repetitive?

1.) Snitches get stitches ending up in ditches are for gangs, mafia, and prison. And teenagers in public school. It has no place in the adult work ethic.
I think this is the real problem. The hard part for me is that I am younger then the worst of the two and it breaks my heart daily that these two sometimes 3 people use bullying, intimidation, and manipulation to achieve what they want to instead of leading by example. It's funny you say prison because that's how it feels. Gangs and mafia yes they meet and decide how they can squeeze all they can from me. I've been bullied at public school before and kids aren't as conniving or cold hearted as these "professionals." This is the world we live in.

Maybe I could just keep trying to be nice and goodness will overcome.

I think that is a good question. So while I'm still thinking about it, for me, there are several reasons why I pray. To feel close to heavenly father for one. Also to thank him for all he's done for me since i last prayed. Also to repent. I think this is a great question though, and ill still be thinking about it.
