Are you a hikikomori?
I'm on and off. I'm getting therapy for it. I hate the word hikikomori cuz I'm not a fucking weeb.
no i dont have mom
My problem is that for the last 20 years I have been hikikomori on the welfare system. They are forcing me back into the work related activity group and I am not going to fight it this time. It may actually get me back into society. My anxiety is killing me but I have to overcome it somehow.
>20 years
how old?
do we have a 40 year old boomer neet on here?
53 but closer to 54
yeah
hello iceland
Mah nigga!
What makes you continue rotting at home?
lol yeah I see why you would say that. It's what kids would say (I'm 5 and a half). I'm stoned. Go figure.
I wish I had his hair
What did you do before you were a neet then and why did you start?
Is there any chance you can still do what you did before?
hey hey!
What's up?
doomers are the west version of hikikomori
I worked in a shit government job for 12 years then finally got the courage to go work on an IT support desk after getting interested in computers. From there I jumped ship 3 years later to an IT admin position. But I got laid off a year later and had a breakdown.
IT support made me hate old people
Yeah it was kinda horrid but miles better than where I had been.
now imagine being support in nig nog paradise
>breakdown
explain
I mean it's defenitely a distructive thing for one's personality.
There are not so many absolute autists, so many people are actually able to stop runnin' from reality.
I had been feeling ill for some time. When I got laid off I immediately tried to get another job and it was mid summer during a heatwave. I came back from the first day on the job tired and the train broke down and we was jammed in like sardines with the sun belting down on us. I cracked and had a panic attack.
pfttt that's nothing
i had 3 autistic fits in 3 different schools
thats why i'm a neet
smoking ciggies and drinking shit ton of coffie is what keeps me going in IT , i understand your breakdown
Well whatever. I was always a weak person. I kinda just said fuck it and signed off sick and then just fell into a habit.
Nope, I'm the embodiment of success.
why are you here then
i used to be for a total of 4 years but a few months ago started working - pretty much the only reason i go outside now
how did u beat it?
Do you feel better for it?
i didnt beat shit, still am an asocial nervous wreck most of the time
maybe, at least i dont feel like a complete failure leeching off my parents anymore, having a normal sleep schedule does feel good
damn
me too
i'm so fucking stupid when it comes to social interations
i must have some sort of brain malformation
same
so close
I've been living as a hikki for a couple of years before I got back into my studies. I'm glad I managed to go back into society before it was too late, and while I do sometimes wish I had stayed the way I was, I can't imagine the mental repercussions it would have had, had I stayed at my parent's house, completely detached.
After a year I already started having some delusions and serious mental effects. I probably would have offed by now. And while the anxiety of work is crushing at times, it is better than nothing
What did he mean by this?
Just a neet with nowhere to go. I wish I had friends and a sweet sweet lover more than anything.
I can't lie I am 100% one some of it my own doing other reason it not
pretty much, even though i'm at university
So is this worse than neetdom or neetdom at its finest?
No sorry lol
No but sometimes I wish I was one
