I feel like I am playing the demo version of life. When I was young I could only get new games once in a while so instead I bought gaming magazines that came with demo discs and I would replay them even though they limited you to one area/character/items or had a time limit. I would read in magazines about new games I couldn't afford anytime soon or run on my PC. Now my life feels the same. Spending all the time in my room at the computer not exploring what life and the world has to offer and instead... 3 0 replies

“Get out of your comfort zone” I’m sure we’ve all heard this bs before. If some of us as neets are already comfy why would we try to end it? Isn’t the goal of hard work to put yourself in a comfy position in life? But yet how often does that really happen? Even educated people with good jobs just enslave themselves most of their lives. So no I will not be leaving my comfort zone because I know for an average peasant like me it’s just not worth it. It’s almost like this society... 1 0 replies

Anyone else feel their family benefits from their NEETdom? I feel like an emotional support animal rather than a human. Every interaction has me questioning my sanity so I’ve just learned to turn off my brain and live in a near constant state of disassociation. When I talk about getting a job they’ll mention that we’re rich and can afford anything and I’d be taking jobs away from the poor. When I talk about going to school, it’s either applying and getting into a good university or I’m ‘selling myself short’ by trying to go to community college.... 2 0 replies
