NEET/hikki thread

For the record most of these people went to college.

>How did you end up becoming a NEET, user?
Lots of work and lots of cash and some time
>How long have you been one for?
Over a year
>How long do plan on being one for (assuming no autism bucks)?
Who knows, but it's all down to how long I want to now.

Jow Forums, replaying the same old video games cause cant afford new ones and cant afford new consoles or new GPUs, porn addiction(resisting and ultimately giving in), overeating, a little bit of exercise.
Tried reading but it bores me and I lose interest.
Tried photography but if you never leave the house you lose interest.
Occasionally I get an urge to look into either drawing or writing or making a video game cause you get one nugget of an idea but take a small step back and realize doing any of that stuff is really really hard and have to be honest with myself about my inability to put in the real work to get good.
Especially with game dev. One person going from knowing nothing about any aspect of game dev to shipping the game you have in your head is 99.99% impossible. Games like Stardew Valley are such rarities in that manner.

i dropped out of HS and quit every shitty minwage job i ever got, i have no incentive to try, im retarded and bad at everything and incapable of learning new things

I am kind of a sociopath, learned to pretend to be normal and even extraordinary at things, the secret is to simplify things, see people like children, what they want is simple, what you must do to make they do what you want is also simple. Be it having sex with a girl, asserting yourself in any situation, getting hired. It's all a game governed by very simple rules, learn how they work and that's it. Just gotta learn how to play the game

>How did you end up becoming a NEET, user?
Got sent to psych ward for a few months when I was 16 and didn't go back to high school.
>How long have you been one for?
2 years
>How long do plan on being one for (assuming no autism bucks)?
Indefinitely, I'll go homeless of kill myself before working.

>How did you end up becoming a NEET, user?

Quit job since the company was committing borderline fraud. Every time I built something so they don't have to commit borderline fraud, they just came up with more ways to scam their clients. It was like playing whack a mole.

Also there was no way I would ever move up in the company because despite being extremely competent technically, I didn't go to their stupid networking events. Also my direct reporting boss was making 200k (and his boss was making 2 million) but acted like the 1.5 dollar raise he gave me was a lot of money.

What did you gent sent into the psych ward for? Psychosis/schiz?

Was your company a MLM/pyramid type thing

Mental Illness, been one 2 years, plan on staying one until I die. I have enough money in the bank to last me a decade if I spend it wisely, after that, it's done.

I've been a NEET since I graduated high school, so about 6 years now. Applied for neetbux, but I don't know if I will be able to get them. Can't get a job though, since I've been rejected or ignored by pretty much everyone in a 50 mile radius.

>Was your company a MLM/pyramid type thing

No it wasn't but 98% of the employees were scraping minimum wage. There were maybe a dozen people working in a corporate type of role and about 4 of them were raking in the moneyz. They made everyone else work like dogs while they pretended we were all "one big team".

Initially off a suicide attempt, but they diagnosed me with and kept me for depressive psychosis.

i graduated college and couldn't get a job

Been neet since last August and gonna stop when I can't get a job even tho I still won't be able to move out lol

I was working at a gas station where my friend was the manager. We also had an apartment together and did some hobbies together also. Eventually, too much of being around this person and him being a poor manager made me want to quit. I finally quit when I got sick and was denied sick time for no reason.

I'm approaching a year now.

Not much longer, but this time I want to save up and not walk out when I choose to leave again to become a neet.

Fucking learn what NEET means stupid normalfag

i WISH i was a neet jfc working for a living sucks FUCKING ASSSSSS ARRRRRGGGGGH

>22
>dropped out of HS when I was 15
>everything about this post is like me
It really sucks because I have these big dreams of living in comfy northern Michigan & owning two pet pigs & maybe directing films but I just can't figure out how to get past the uncomfortable feeling of working a "McJob" until I learn how to have a marketable skill, it really makes me sad to think about because I want it so bad

Left it this week after neeting it up for 9 months as my parents ramped up their rage about me not doing my placement. I want to go back, my superviser keeps demanding I do things in the stupid ass backwards way they now that all my teachers make a point of saying not to do because it's slower, sloppier, and takes a million years to make adjustments.

I want to go back.

The longer you wait the harder it'll be to break out of the neet life. Take the leap of faith and just go get any shitty job and just start building things up.

I don't have a car or fare money, that I feel is the biggest issue. I need something in walking distance I think, but I never see anyone hiring. There's a couple restaurants nearby that would be good but I've never been in any of them & it's really scary

yeah thats the leap of faith part. Do whatever you have to so you dont end up like me. You dont want to be me. There are zero positives to being me so claw and scratch your way out of your current situation. Work whatever local shitty jobs you need to do.

Recently stopped being a NEET, but I was one for almost 12 years. It was a slow, hateful, burning grind to get out of that pit of despair and desperation, the -knowing- that nobody wanted me to work for them. Even when I tried to make money doing odd jobs, nobody wanted me. After the first five years of going out every single day to put in applications and try to give firm handshakes, I finally got the message and stopped. I rarely bathed, didn't eat, barely left my room except to piss and shit. I was a miserable, Gollem-like creature. My teeth began to crack and grind down to nubs. Everything started to hurt, the concussions I got over the course of years began to catch up and my brain began to hurt 24/7 and still hasn't stopped. It feels like someone jamming an icepick into the back of my head and very front at all times. I did nothing for another 6 years, no applications, no handshakes, nothing except doing my best to avoid my parents because I didn't want to see the look of disappointment in their eyes whenever they saw me. I'd quit a good job when good jobs simply weren't around, because I couldn't handle being yelled at by 8 on site bosses and 2 out of state bosses who couldn't speak english. It was a hellish nightmare I couldn't get out of. I just drank and slept and drank some more, playing vidya to kill time while I drank and waited for the day to end and start it all up again whenever I woke up.

I scrounged cans and bottles for drinking money, stole copper pipes for drinking money, busted my ass so I could stay drunk all the time and dull the pain of existing for a few hours a night. It was a sad, lonely, disgusting existence.

I have a job now, but that doesn't erase the decade I spent trying to find one. I share a place with my mom since my dad died recently, so the rent and living situation isn't so bad, only now I have dentures and still drink a lot.

But how do I get past
>what did you do for that may years unemployed
when all I've done is play games & read manga? I could lie & say I was teaching myself something but what happens if I encounter that thing in the field

say you were helping to take care of a family member for the past few years

Say you were helping with family medical emergencies, taking care of relatives after heart-attacks that required basic care round the clock(house cleaning, food prep, trash disposal, all that kind of shit.)

Or be honest and say you weren't taking your life seriously and you finally got a wakeup call that you're a few steps behind everyone else. Depending on the guy giving the interview, one of those two approaches will work.

NEETS are the foundation to today's society. I don't know why everybody is so damn against all these damn fucking god damn NEETS. We're honestly the POWERHOUSE of this damn nation, and all we do is get fucking slack. We don't need to work because of our disabilities, but that just means we stabalize the economy, right? Exactly, we stabalize today's economy with our autism. That just means we're smarter than the average person! That just means, we, as PEOPLE who DO not work are smarter than the wage cucks who ACTUALLY work!
