>The acronym for (Not In Education Employment Or Training
>Hikikomori
>Hikikomori is a coping strategy activated in response to the excessive pressure of social realization typical of modern individualistic societies it is a social condition caused by a group of symptoms that result in the affected individual withdrawing from society and living in isolation in their bedroom for 6 months or more but has no physical condition or other psychological problem as its main principal source
>Contrary to popular belief some hikikomori do go outdoors occasionally but only for necessities or emergencies and they still spend nearly everyday at home in their room
>The Hikikomori Criteria and Diagnosis
>1. Spending most of the day and nearly everyday confined to home >2. A marked and and persistent avoidance of social situations and social relationships >3. Social withdrawal symptoms causing significant functional impairment >4. A duration of at least six months >5. No apparent physical or mental etiology to account for the social withdrawal symptoms
People who go to work school or have a social life are not Hikikomori and people who go to work or school are not Neet

I'm trying to meet people online to chat with but it's all "asl? snap??" and I can't keep up with the normiefaggotry. Also looked at what I'd like to do for a living but don't have the brain power to cut it
Pissed me off the fucker gets a job and friend on day one. Fucker gets a bitch to come to his house to offer him a job. Ridiculous. Personally I wouldn't bother

It is not supposed to be realistic.

I've been grinding out online blitz chess matches. I lose about 9 times out of 10 but that's how you learn. Oddly enough I get better the drunker I get. If you watch it through to the end you'll see that she is just as, if not more, fucked up than he is. Also, nothing ever really gets resolved. They don't even hook up. NHK is probably the most robot-accurate anime/manga behind Oyasumi PunPun, Ressentiment and Boys on the Run.

Been playing Fire Emblem. It's been almost two weeks of doing nothing but that tho. It's starting to grow tiring. When I'm done with manic mode path of radiance i'll move on.

Well something has to happen. Just showing a hiki do nothing forever doesn't make for a show.

guys i sometimes go see my old buddies who i used to goto college/uni with but other than that i mostly stay indoors, i used to be a full hikki. who here based and pseudohikki-pilled?
Zachary Lopez
A hikikomori is a shut in who doesnt leave their bedroom inside their parents house if you are just not leaving your house you are just a recluse not a hikikomori.
bruh i leave my parents house rarely to see some old friends but i still live there if thats what you mean? whats with the strict criteria?
Colton Barnes
>bruh i leave my parents house rarely to see some old friends but i still live there if thats what you mean? whats with the strict criteria?
No i mean you have to live in your bedroom and spend almost everyday at home for 6 months or more to be called a hikikomori Japan defines hikikomori as those who have lived in isolation in their rooms for at least 6 months have no physical injury or mental disorder have no close friends or few friends (If any) and do not communicate with people besides the people they live with such as family members or maybe online friends. a hikikomori is always a neet and enabled by family or living off of government benefits unless they somehow are able to take classes or work online while not going out.

I feel pewdiepie forgot how he blew up, just being another yell at video games guy. He seems convinced he's been doing something unique now.
Jackson Hill
been fired and rehired over and over and many diff food places, almost couldnt pay off my fucking STUDIO apartment and i cant be fucked to find any stupid odd jobs to do because i refuse to leave if its not the small circle of friends i have calling me out to go somewhere or work, which is as rare as a bloodmoon, so i just stay home doing jack shit if not at work

Jordan Rogers
you have the ones like me who are clean freaks, but im also a fucking autist so its basically my room can be misorganized, like a sheet here and there, but there are no stains, no smells or anything, its just messy in terms of i dont organize shit, and in turn i hate when i get sticky or smelly in the slightest.
the manga was even better. the awkwardness when his mother caught him fapping to lolis while living at his parents house was priceless.
Carson Jones
>how you suppossed to find a broad?
It's called online dating.
>Yooo haha what the fuck thats such a paradox either you hikki long enough to become the mental or you are mental long enough to become the hikki
They mean a mental disorder cant be the reason or cause of the isolation you idiot same goes for a physical injury because most hikikomori were not mentally ill prior to their isolation.
In my opinion, it's worth watching for the soundtrack alone, but yeah, you should.

I've been a NEET for 10 years now. More and more of my family members are dying. My social anxiety is physically exhausting. I'm too afraid to work. Therapy never helped. Pills never helped. It feels like things are only getting worse.

Sounds like it's just your fault

It is. I'm not blaming anybody.

I'd honestly rather die than get a job
>NEET since I was 16, now 25 years old >Survived by leeching off various relatives and government handouts >Don't want to do anything but be alone in my room >No interest in other people
Daily reminder if you look for work while you're unemployed you're not a Neet Neets don't wanna contribute to society at all you are just a regular unemployed normalfag and 3 months of summer vacation away from school or working part-time doesnt make you a Neet either there is already a term for people who work pat-time you are called a Freeter.

This is what happens when an edgy faggot tries that shit when not behind the safety of a keyboard lmao. What an autistic loser baka this is so disappointing to read I'm actually irritated
Owen Perez
>Can I ask, what keeps you from kiling yourself?
I am afraid of death.
Sebastian White
Funny that theres an NHK thread now. I've just finished watching it yesterday.
Yeah it's really good. Entertaining, funny, dramatic, sad... it has a bit of everything. It's not pure entertainement either, it will make you think. Not in a "wow this is so deep" way, it's a simple story but very relateable, even if you're not a NEET. Because everyone can relate to the characters, their feelings, their memories to some extent. It's a well told and written story on it's own too though.
>Also, nothing ever really gets resolved. They don't even hook up. NHK is probably the most robot-accurate anime/manga That's the beauty of it, it's realistic in some sense.
Ayden James
You were wronged by the school. I think you know what to do :^)
Gotta go and do some shopping but I'm gonna leave it until later tonight when there are far fewer people around. If I do it now I'll be surrounded by school kids, parents and people coming out of work and a fuck load of others.
Hey fellow Hikkis and neets what do you guys do with your hair mine is long need a cut dont want to go outside trying to cut my own hair any tips
John Ramirez
>Americans consider swearing edgy lol, you soft cunts 'd get fucked in straya.
Christopher Martinez
Check out some youtube videos on it or if you really don't care get some clippers and shave it all off with no guard.
Oliver Price
Best time to shop is @ 9-10pm. Most normies are home by then. Some supermarkets even have cheaper meat at that hour because they're trying to sell it.
Julian Collins
how can i grow up if no one wants to give me any work. no really, what is the point of being employed if i dont get hours
Mason Thompson
reminder you have to prove you went job hunting to keep receiving benefits. govt will ask you the addresses of places you have applied to, and they will call to confirm if you even bothered
Nolan Price
this shit was entirely your fault you absolute retard. You can say nigger on the internet, but not in public, you know this shit.

I hate this, but I have to help my dad pay bills and go food shopping.

I quit my job today and am NEET again. I feel like a coward for quitting the way I did and I'm a fool for doing it without anything else lined up, but I'm so happy about going through with it.
