If you never do something fun life is not worth living A lot of people forget about having fun, cought up in the shame of stagnation. Others don't know of fun things that exist or can't imagine them. And others like me believe the last opportunity for fun in this life was last year. I recall the bluest sea, the bluest eyes, looking at me. Golden hair floating in the sea. Naked bodies. We can't have everything we want, but maybe we can still have enough. It will feel like enough once we do it. 1 1 replies

UPDATE: Not going to college after all lol Update post to when i got approved for WIOA and college. Turns out I don't want to ever attend college. I signed all the important documents, got squared away... and bam. I owe <$200 worth of book vouchers already. What the fuck? I ended up dropping all of my classes because loan debt terrifies the shit out of me. Only thing I would try to do now is the CompTIA trifecta classes which i have no obligation to ever pay. Fuck SNHU. I really wish I had a job... 2 0 replies
How do people afford the NEET life these days? TBH Everything is getting so expensive. It's not like how it was 10 years ago. You kinda gotta have some sort of Income from welfare, Crypto or something else that isn't toil (reselling things online). Being NEET is your living situation. Fall back plan could be living on your friends couch or living in your car. 4 10 replies
LARP and COPE: The bread and butter of my life Being a dumb and talentless NEET, all I have are copes and larps. One of my copes is my efforts in my larps that are expressed through my hobbies, the truth is that it doesn't matter who you really are in this world but what you appear to be, so knowing that I can't be really good because I'm genetically inferior, all I can do is larp, so it's all about appearing to impress people and show off your beautiful peacock feathers, deep down you know your rottenness, but... 1 2 replies
Is learning to work in data entry a good idea for someone who's socially anxious and bad at math? My sibling recommended I learn excel and do it, but I want some opinions from others that have done it if its worth getting into? The only thing I see holding me back is my inability to talk to strangers (as in I might die from a mental breakdown if I have to deal with clients/customers who want to bust balls) and my math skills at a basic arithmetic level (add subtract multiply divide, it doesn't get any better than that). Otherwise, I am gonna have to lock in... 0 0 replies
All I care about is chilling I don’t care to have a career. I don’t want responsibilities. Of course I have a few but nothing like a normie would have. I know my parents won’t last forever but I’m willing to live in my car if it means never having to work full time. I’m not dumb either, I could have had a decent career but I just have 0 drive. I’m not motivated to do anything other than chill and stay away from all the shitty people out there. I was like this in... 3 1 replies

Feeling hopeful (Life is unpredictable) I went to the doctor after years of not going. I got blood tested and I have a B12 deficiency and iron deficiency. It was giving me symptoms like fatigue, depression, anxiety, memory loss, difficulty focusing, suicidal thoughts. I’ll find out in a month or two if it fixes me. I was going to kill myself. I don’t even have one friend, I have never had a girlfriend, I don’t have a job. I just have hope, and hope is everything. 5 0 replies
(M21)All my peers are going somewhere but me, and I’m fine with it I graduated high school in 2022, im a young neet and slowly turning into an American equivalent of a hikikomori. It’s weird, I see so much of my peers going places. Going to college, having kids, having careers, going out with friends. and if I’m honest I’m fine with it, as weird as that sounds That might just be me coping with that but I don’t know, I feel content. I never wanted a future, I still don’t. I don’t have a desire to get out and find a... 5 6 replies

How much did bullying influence you into becoming a future NEET, if you were bullied? I was bullied in Kindergarten, at age 5 or so. It confirmed that the world was a bad place. I never even told my parents that I was bullied. The was a girl who kept pinching me and making faces. I never reported her. The second bullying happened when I was 10 or 11. This time a boy beat me with a stick regularly. No one ever knew. Luckily I grew up to be a tall bulky dude and no one bullied me anymore. I wasn't bullied in high... 1 0 replies
I feel that I don't fit into this world. (25M)I feel terribly unwell, I have physical and mental health problems. Neet since finishing high school. I have never worked. I don't know how to relate to people, I have a sad look on my face all the time and I isolate myself from people, but yet I feel that I miss someone close to me, but I can't, I think it's an avoidant personality, I'm afraid to open up to another person. I feel quite a contrast between people and me. The only thing I feel like doing... 2 0 replies
First day of work review Very swag. Easy peasy, I was cutting towels into 1/3 to turn them into rags using a machine and stacking them into a box. Afterwards I cleaned the bathrooms while listening to music, vacuumed the floor and emptied trash cans. A LOT of dust and felt nauseated when cleaning bathroom cuz certain cleaning chemical smelled very similar to vomit. But I felt pretty good! I did manual labor and I got paid for it!! Yippee!! I was entirely covered in dust but that Benjamin felt so special cuz I... 3 0 replies
Why do so many people think life is easy? If it was easy, I wouldn't be a doomer neet and stuck in a severe perpetual nightmarish depression with my mental illness for solace. I'm basically a disabled adult child neet who stays home everyday. You can only scream in silence and watch this life pass by. I suffer in silence. People said I was a lost cause. Optimism is like mockery to me. Whenever I hear it, I feel pain. No, being a neet isn't optional for me either. I'm stuck this way since I'm mentally disabled. Society... 2 0 replies
