Culture shock in Vietnam is not a cliché—it is a predictable pattern: honeymoon, frustration, adjustment, and acceptance. Expats search "culture shock in Vietnam" when daily life stops feeling charming and starts feeling exhausting.
Naming the phase helps you respond with strategy instead of self-blame.
Signs you are in the frustration phase
- Small rules feel personal insults instead of neutral customs.
- You avoid local media and only consume content from home.
- You vent constantly but rarely ask locals clarifying questions.
- Sleep, appetite, or motivation dip without medical cause.
