>pay therapist $150 to listen to me explain how i hate hate wageslaving, was happy as NEET but now miserable, don't understand how to be a happy person if i have to waste half of my life wageslaving >"lol that's easy just get a job doing what you like" Why are normies so ridiculous?
She says now i probably have "ADD" and i'm getting blood tests
WHY ARE THERE NO WAYS TO COPE WITH WASTING MY LIFE DOING BORING, MISERABLE SHIT?
The happier i am outside of work the worse I feel during work, because I'm missing out on actual life and joy. So it seems the only way to cope is to deliberately do nothing enjoyable when i am not at work. Make my free time so horrible that even work is an improvement
I don't know how normies do it. I fucking hate working fulltime. My boomer parents said my weekends would feel much better once I got a job. Thats the dumbest thing they ever said to me. My weekends feel miserable. Saturday is shit because I feel exhausted, and Sunday is even worse because I know that Monday is coming up. 2 days is all you get, cuck
Nathaniel Kelly
>My boomer parents said my weekends would feel much better once I got a job I am not sure if they lie to themselves and believe it or what.
It is kind of true but also false
They feel better in relation to your weekdays. When NEET every day was like a 9/10 Now as a wagie my work day are like a 3/10 and weekend 5/10
Justin Wright
You're feeling like shit because you've become complacent. Your current job should be a stepping stone between either a job you find that you love, or a job you find that you might not love, but take pride in.
Oliver Sullivan
There are things i want to do that give my life purpose and make me feel proud. Nobody would ever pay me to do them
I can't think of a job that would not make me miserable. I can't think of any job that i would be proud of
I'd happily kill my parents or amputate my arm for something like that. I WOULD DO FUCKING ANYTHING
Chase Robinson
My days were sometimes pretty shit, but if I felt really bad I just could lie in bed or something and pass the time. Now I have to function at work no matter what and I get crazy anxious if I make even the slightest mistake.
Josiah Cox
Yeah and as a wagie you get to watch your health slowly deteriorate. As a NEET i was improving my health, which made me happy
Anthony Moore
Not sure if this advice will help you, but my dad (a sprinkler system fitter in buildings) once told me that putting sprinkler heads in buildings didn't necessarily make him happy, but the fact that it might save peoples' lives one day, makes him pretty proud of his work. That and it's cool to drive by giant buildings in cities and recall the times that he worked in them.
Maybe consider that sort of thing when you try to think of things you might choose to do in the future?
Jackson Jones
i also have no idea how to explain to them that working makes me miserable. i am at my job in this exact moment and i'll only be able to get home after 8 hours of work. how am i supposed to be happy with this? not even antidepressants helped me to cope. tfw i work on saturdays and only get sundays to rest tfw minimal wage
Yeah that's the issue. Nobody is going to pay me to do what i think will make the world a better place
And i only do it in my free time. If i have the energy and drive after wasting my day wagecucking. Usually i am exhausted
But it's just so rewarding that i don't care if i dont get paid for it. Unfortunately i need money to not starve to death in an empty alleyway somewhere. It sucks
I feel like if i had no passions or hobbies or interests, work wouldn't make me as miserable as it does
Jaxson Cox
I fucking hate my life. I've been trying for the past few weeks to get back into my normal routine I had from high school: put on some music I like, do my hair to the music, get dressed and talk myself up as I do so, then leave the house confident and happy to be alive.
But it just doesn't fucking work anymore. It was easy to hype myself up in school. I had things to look forward to, whether it was my friends or some girl I was crushing on or a class I liked. Now I have nothing. I wake up every morning for nothing. I have no real motivation to keep living.
I remember the lowest point in my depression a few years ago. I was completely emotionless and had no real will to survive. I didn't care if I lived or died because I enjoyed nothing. That feeling is coming back. And I know it's because of this fucking job. It's sucked the life out of me. I have this feeling of dissatisfaction buzzing in the back of my head constantly. No matter what I do, nothing is "right". I need time to myself to figure things out and get my life back on track but I don't have time. I have to work. I'll probably end up killing my self within the next ten years.
Kevin Carter
The point was that my dad didn't want to necessarily do what he did, but once he started doing it, he found parts of it that really meant something to him.
The thing you need to do is get out of the life that you've settled for and are comfortable with, and do something that could be considered a career.
I personally am trying to be an electrician. Will I like it? Fuck if I know, but it sure as shit cannot possibly be worse than what I'm doing now. You just gotta first try to find something less shit than what you currently do. Don't be complacent.
Nathan Green
I was a NEET for a year and it allowed me to regain the will to live. Even though my dad terrorized me daily to get a job. It was only like 15-20 mins a day of him deliberately trying to guilt me into going back to "the daily misery" (work)
I did have to convince him to ask me to quit my job though
All we can do is pray for UBI at this point, or a fat inheritance
Hudson Cox
>but once he started doing it, he found parts of it that really meant something to him. But i can't think of a job like that Any ideas?
>The thing you need to do is get out of the life that you've settled for and are comfortable with, and do something that could be considered a career. I am a programmer is that a "career"?
>You just gotta first try to find something less shit than what you currently do. Don't be complacent. I literally became a programmer because i couldn't think of a job that would be less miserable
I used to enjoy programming. But once i did it for a month as a wagie i started to hate it
Still i can't think of a less horrible job
Tyler Cooper
My goal is to save enough money to quit my job temporarily and take a two or three month break from the misery. I just want to find things I enjoy again. All I do is work. When I'm not working, I don't have the energy to enjoy my life so I just binge on porn to get some enjoyment out of the time I have to myself, which more than likely isn't helping. God, I've been through some awful shit and I've contemplated suicide but never has killing myself seemed so tempting. And I feel like a huge bitch because the thing that drives me to suicide is working, something everyone in the world does. I might try to hurt myself just to end up in the hospital for a while.
I'd take a 20 minute daily guilt trip if it meant I could just stop for a while.
yes it is the worst because there is no end in sight. It's guaranteed misery well into the future. Watching my health deteriorate makes me think i will die as a wagie, never able to retire
I gave up trying to get a gf. No point. What if she wants to start a family? Bad idea, that's just a guarantee i will NEVER retire and my children would have a PERMANENTLY MISERABLE father
Matthew Rodriguez
I learned how to program but didn't want to do it full time either. Instead I'm a field technician, who figures out the tech problems that the helpdesk can't. It's pretty comfy because it's a mix of many different types of problems to solve, and I have enough trust from my coworkers to solve them as I like, and the normies are by and large very thankful for unfucking their computer problems for them.
And it pays for my cost of living. Retirement is still the dream but I never expected not to have to work and save for that.
Brayden Brown
>I might try to hurt myself just to end up in the hospital for a while. Holy based, me too user. I considered slitting my wrists in a pussy suicide attempt and get time off
Andrew Turner
desu i am a neet life is not that great. i am bored all the time but at least having no responsibilities in the immediate is peaceful
Chase Cooper
>tfw you give up on happiness That's how you know they won. You're way to miserable to put any effort into creating anything that even resembles a life, so you just decide to not even try. It's how you end up that guy who stays late everyday because you have no reason to go home.
Julian Roberts
In your situation since you already DID what could be a career, you have to think outside the box with what you're already doing. Maybe a different programming job wouldn't be as bad, maybe you do something else that relates to programming, or a job you can get BECAUSE you have a programming background.
Even when I worked tech support, some of the jobs were fucking awesome, and some of them were total soul-sucking nightmares. You just have to be willing to try absolutely anything different, or you'll be miserable forever, my man.
Brayden Cox
I was NEET for a year i was never bored. The issue is you have no hobbies. you should be a wagie since you have no interests so you might as well wagecuck
People with hobbies or interests often hate waging more than people that dont because they would actually be happy if they werent at work
There was only 1 time in my life i wanted to go to work. It was winter and my heater broke. I was freezing my ass off in my apartment. No other time in my whole life have i actually wanted to go to work
Dominic Parker
3 jobs related to programming. 0 happiness
Also getting a job IS REALLY REALLY DIFFICULT. Took me basically a year to get this one!
Noah Gonzalez
Turning something you like doing into a job is probably one of the dumbest things I've ever heard
Carter Smith
>put any effort into creating anything that even resembles a life, so you just decide to not even try. WHAT THE FUCK CAN I DO DIFFERENTLY???? YOU MAKE NO SENSE. I WANT TO BE HAPPY
Hunter Hughes
>It's how you end up that guy who stays late everyday because you have no reason to go home. I have every reason to go home. I leave early. I lie about my hours. I work 7hrs and clock in 8. Home is the only place i am happy
Working is 100x worse because i know i could be happy if i wasnt there
Brandon Cruz
I've been a NEET before user. I was a NEET back in the summer of 2015. Being a NEET can be an amazing experience if you know how to spend your time and you're lucky enough to have people to spend your time with. I'd wake up in the morning, turn on some black boomer music, make a simple breakfast, maybe jerk off, shitpost here for a while, call my stoner friend, eat Mexican food and smoke with him, go home and watch TV for a while. Maybe I'd get an invitation to drink at a friend's house. They'd invite girls and we'd all just sit around and get drunk off our asses all night and try to get some pussy. It was the best summer I'd ever had as an adult.
David Sanders
3 weeks ago i injured my biceps at the gym and my doctor got me 4 days off work. those 4 days were the best days i had this year. now i'm back in hell.
Isaac Turner
Dont tell him that. Ignorance is bliss
Enjoying NEETdom is a curse. it makes wagecucking 100x worse
Isaac Gomez
You can't do anything differently. Some people just aren't built for this life. Their goal is to break you down. The only way to win the game is to not play.
Brayden Cox
I dunno man, it's not going to be easy. I'm nearly fuckin' 30 and I'm just in the beginning stages of figuring it out for myself, and this STILL might not help at all. You ever consider that you might just fucking hate programming? As long as you're not dead, it's not too late to say "fuck it" and work on doing something else completely.
James Price
>You ever consider that you might just fucking hate programming? As long as you're not dead, it's not too late to say "fuck it" and work on doing something else completely. My passions and interests will never make me money
There is no job that seems desirable or interesting. Programming is easy. I am shitposting from work now. I spend 80% of my time at work shitposting since i am so fast. I dont have to talk to people which is a plus. one day i might be able to work remotely which is another plus
The issue is I COULD BE DOING SOMETHING ENJOYABLE but i have to waste my life at work. the problem is i have real hobbies and interests worth doing, but i can't because i am wagecucking
I have never heard of a job that didnt seem terrible. Programming just seems like the least horrible choice of all
Jonathan Butler
God now I'm thinking back to that summer. It was the first time I was ever invited to a house party too. Mary Jane by Rick James always gets me emotional because they played it at that party. It was the last time I was truly happy. I was away from the porn, I had actual REAL friends who loved me for the first time in my life, I had girls who were happy to see me, I was finally one of the cool kids. Then I got my fucking job that fall.
I was on my way to being a full blown normalfag. If I stayed a NEET, I'd be normal as hell right now but work caused me to go back into my shell and become this miserable failed normie who keeps trying to recapture that Summer '15 feel but can't.
How do I get a body like the goose? Looks like just low bf% and bicep/chest/traps to me.
Jonathan Carter
>Tfw if my parents allowed me to go outside and socialize during my childhood-teen days, I would have been a normalfag
When I discovered Jow Forums, it all went downhill from there. I have zero interest of talking to people aside from a handful that I know.
Ryan Rogers
Tfw parents forced me to socialize in undesirable situations (like making me join a basketball team despite being a manlet who couldn't even dribble, everyone else loved the sport) and now i hate social situations and deliberately avoid them
Colton Cruz

Robert Flores
>sounds boring and empty and would get old quick It's better than waking up before the sun and rushing out of the house to do the exact same thing you did the day before.
Jayden Turner
some wage slave say that fuck a prostitute when you got your pay check help your life a little, try it user
Leo Nelson
>what hobbies do you do that are so great? Reading and writing about history, science, the news
99% of people would hate doing them. It gives me purpose though I would literally CHOP OFF MY TESTICLES in exchange for a CAREER that gives me purpose. I am so desperate!
Caleb Thomas
>try it user It doesnt help. I fucked a tinder slut she wanted me to come over i ignored her. Not worth the 20 minute drive at all
Luis Jackson
>Reading and writing about history, science, the news you know jobs like this exist right? it is not that unobtainable
Hudson Carter
Not really for the stuff i care about
David Kelly
Fellow wagies, if you live in a (fucking) welfare state, why dont you abuse the system? I pretty much like my job (not going to tell about it cause its kinda niche) but after sometime I become bored to death, depressed and not willing to work anymore. So I go to the medical leave due to depression and claim the benefits for couple of months. Well after that I need to find a new job but have a lot time for that during the leave. I do it every couple of years and just play the shit out of my favorite games, work out, study some weird stuff, go to parks and visit all the places I want to go. Sometimes I also travel but its risky, thay can claim the abuse if they find your travel photos on social media, which of course I dont have, cause its for normies. Of course I get less bux during the leave but I dont care. The only thing is that I cannot own a gun if Im taking antidepressants but oh well. I still can go to a shooting range (Jow Forums is my hobby). Other thing is I fucking hate those government commies so I take pride fucking with them and their stupid nigger system of inherited poverty. Y not do dis robots? Well if youre in the U.S. I guess youre fucked.
Michael Rogers
>is not that unobtainable I am actually part of a committee that i volunteer my time for. We believe in what we do
I am totally remaking the website. For free. Then i will be writing more articles
There is no money here. Maybe one day a rich person will donate a lot. Not keeping our hopes up
I can't get paid because the information is being disseminated for free. The only way i could ever get paid is, like i said, if someone donated a lot of money. The guy who runs it is personally bankrolling the operation and has a family anyway
Additionally i have to do it anonymously. I do not want my name attached at all, it may ruin any job prospects in the future
Dylan Stewart
I don't see why blood tests would detect ADD. That said, ADD does affect life quality in terms of being able to tolerate shit you don't like (id est wage slavery).
Jonathan Myers
>Fellow wagies, if you live in a (fucking) welfare state, why dont you abuse the system? I can't get any welfare as i am American
Connor Brooks
Boomers already abused the fuck out of it for decades when it was extremely cushy and now it's extremely stringent to access and doesn't pay enough to live off anymore.
Dylan Brown
>in terms of being able to tolerate shit you don't like Care to explain? I can focus on interesting things. But boring stuff (like any career or job) i just get so bored
I used to use speed (amphetamine) because it helped me with work, as in: it made time fly by. I hated it though otherwise. I never understood how people see recreational value there. It is only good for making time go by faster when doing miserable stuff like wageslaving
Eli Robinson
Hence my last sentence, but they dont take 50% of your income to sustain this bullshit on the other hand.
As I 99% wont live enough to get pension from state, I just take it right now. I would feel cucked if I paid 50% of my income for nothing.
Yes fucking normies shitting hordes of their stupid children into poverty that will claim the benefits all their lifes can pretty much die imo. Sorry for the edge, I dont like talking politics, it makes me mad, just wanted to suggest something robots.
James Lopez
Too bad, I dont know how it works in Murica. But if you live in EU I guess its still doable.
Jace Allen
is it even possible to survive as a NEET?
Juan Reed
Free food, housing and medical it's easy in the USA
Adam Flores
Yeah just have well off parents
My parents could absolutely fund my existence. Instead, they refuse to. As a result they are miserable and will never get grandchildren.
Ayden King
> it's easy in the USA Bullshit. I wasnt elligible for anything except 6 months of food stamps when i was neet
Usa is horrible with this
Carter Perry
if you force yourself to tolerate working you may come to like it. Just think that the money fuels your hobbies
Jonathan Thompson
My friend is a NEET and he's thriving. He lives with his parents so he has no real bills and he also had a high paying job that he got fired from for assaulting a customer, so he had a lot of money saved up. If your mentally and physically able to work and you don't have anyone to take care of you, you won't be a NEET.
Daniel Hill
I don't have the time nor the energy for hobbies user. My only hobby is porn. After work, I'm so drained that I can't muster up the motivation to do anything else.
Hudson Diaz
It's not wageslaving in itself that i hate but having to constantly be around people after being a hikki neet for over a year. Day four and the stress is so bad i'm not sure if i'm going to be able to stay here for much longer
William Morgan
>force yourself to tolerate working How is that possible? My hobbies only cost electricity and internet, things i have to pay for anyway
Lincoln Cruz
Or what about hobbies that don't require you to make constant purchases? I play guitar and the only running costs I have are buying new strings and on rare occasions spare parts, most of which only cost a few bucks. Everything else I already bought.
Nicholas Howard
1 and a half days. you have to go to bed early on sunday.
Colton Long
>it seems the only way to cope is to deliberately do nothing enjoyable when i am not at work. Make my free time so horrible that even work is an improvement the accuracy with which your comments describe my life has brought a new revelation of how pathetic i am
I'd prefer your depression over my death anxiety any day, senpai. I operated under your conditions for 20 years until I had a bad weed trip last Saturday. Now I can't even stay in my room alone. Its totally destroyed my TV and internet binging.
Isaac Young
my mother hates working but she's smart as fuck and got a high paying job that only need her to work ~20h/week. my father hates working but is sleazy enough to find women with well paying jobs so he can just chill. i'm the dumbest person i know and too ugly, depressed and awkward for either option. most people hate working (probably for different reasons than us), but they're good at living so they find a way. i don't know how to do that.
Asher Ross
Being part of something bigger than yourself gives life meaning. You just have a bad work ethic and you're a bitch.
>Being part of something bigger than yourself gives life meaning. I agree. But i can't make any money doing this
My job actually gets in the way of the purpose which gives my life meaning
I can't think of a meaningful job that someone would pay for. It makes no sense
Dylan Fisher
You should rape her YOU SHPULD FUCKING RAPE THAT PATRONIZING CUNT FUCKING MAKE OBLIVION
John Hill
>security job I'm starting on Friday is from 2200-0600 and it's patrolling a parking lot for a motel on Fridays and Saturdays Is this comfy or shit bros?
how can I get neetbux in the us as someone with bipolar, anxiety, and depression?
Grayson Thompson
Just think OP you could have spent that 150 dollars on art which lasts literally... forever. Instead you paid 150 dollars to vent your frustrations to a "professional" when anons listen to your bullshit all day every day FOR FREE.
What the fuck are you doing with your life OP?
Brayden Thompson
>there's more entertainment for a wider variety of tastes than there has ever been in human history >people have this problem
what the fuck is wrong with people?
Jordan Cruz
>What the fuck are you doing with your life OP? My parents are actually the ones that told me to. I paid the therapist so my parents could see the charge, and to prevent them from coming to my condo and watching everything i do. They think i am always depressed and miserable. When i tell them i am happy if i am not working and only want to be NEET they pretend like i didnt speak
Grayson Wright
That's part of the problem. IT actually makes it worse. Every second i am at work is a second wasted that could be filled with happiness and joy
I only wanted to go to work once in my life: my heater broke and it was winter i was freezing my balls off. that was the only time work was better than freedom
Jose Walker
>being part of something bigger Yeah like making some richfag even richer. It really gives my life purpose to make millions of dollars for one family while they throw pennies back down at me in return.
Logan Adams
>Every second i am at work is a second wasted that could be filled with happiness and joy yeah but you've told your therapist that sitting at home consuming entertainment all day has made you miserable, so you know that's not true.
Adrian Anderson
>you've told your therapist that sitting at home consuming entertainment all day has made you miserable No i didnt. I told the truth
I was miserable for years as a wagie. Parents saw how absolutely dejected i was . Told me to quit job and be NEET. I regained the will to live. i was happy. Lasted almost a year
Got another job and within a week i was miserable every day again. It's wageslaving that makes me wish i was dead. I just wanna be NEET so i can be happy
Adrian Adams
>nervous af for a pre screening interview >take a couple shots of liquid courage >answered almost all the questions clearly
Think I passed the first part since they said to expect a second call for customer service scenario questions before the face to face interview. Fuck though, why is the interview process always more nerve wracking than the actual job?
>death anxiety seems were quite similar, have to avoid things which could incite ideas of death and dying or else i get panic attacks
Chase Hughes
I am perfectly OK with dying. If a doctor said i had 1 year to live from terminal cancer i would be happy actually, assuming i can be NEET
Ryder Sanders
This is Based actually i will prolly stay as a NEET thought its pretty hard to get a job where i could actually help
Lincoln Myers
I am 28 and live with my father. I would rather be at work than with my father. I love my father but he is a low IQ, bipolar, narcissistic retard. So find someone that makes you miserable, move in with them and you will love being at work
Joshua Russell
Because you sound like a depressed idiot. >i want to be neet
Do you want to be homeless too?

Okay so i like >porn >jerking off >vidya >listenning to music >drinking >smoking tobacco or weed >Biking >swimming >speaking with my mom or frens >posting here >watching movies >watching youtube >going to interesting places I literally always feel content and i am literally never bored even though i am a NEET thought none of my interests could be converted into a job so i am not gonna get one fuck you boomers! I look forward to get UBI as well the only solution for me
Evan Price
I do not know. I am a TruNEET and have been for many years now, I get paid $1100+ each month for doing literally nothing, ever. This will continue for the rest of my life. I will never understand why people choose to work and waste their lives for nothing of value. There is no way that I will get a job, ever. What is the appeal? Doing things you do not want to do, for what?
Can you not just become a NEET? What is stopping you?
