Thinking of writing a book about being a neet Hi, neet with 10+ years of experience here. I was thinking of writing a book about being a neet, would you read it? Do you think it's a good idea? The book would be about how to live as a neet succesfully and happily, not how to become a neet( that is out of your control, you gotta have parents willing to fund yout neet lifestyle) 5 7 replies
Any of you guys hate college and university students? I failed out of secondery school at age 16. Never had a single qualification in my life. I have had moderate autism and learning disabilities that have made learning hell. I used to be working in grocery and fast food and something that has bugged me is the fact i am in my early 20s and all of the new workers are college and university students. And i am always asked "what are you studying bro" And even asked that by people much older as well in and outside... 2 7 replies

Just a |=\_/<k1N6 rant Was kicked out of my parents at 19, I got accepted for welfare because of my disabling mental health that’s landed me in hospital many times. I wish I could hold down a job. I feel so useless and lonely and all my skills are regressing. I’m trying to make a better life for myself but it’s fucking hard when welfare deincentivises that, because I’d literally earn less if I had a minimum wage job (that’s all I’m qualified for as I did shit at school) even then, I’ve... 5 1 replies

How to overcome the shame? I (24f) am currently in a deep depression, triggered by my obsession to work, but being unable to. It actually makes me so anxious and sad that I'm not able to work like all my friends do, which resulted in me not being able to get out of bed atm. I really wanna work so bad and I know it would be good for me but I can't get over the shame of not starting sooner or getting a better job. There are just so much bad feelings around... 2 1 replies

Capitalism Given that a lot of us are probably NEETs from not wanting to be wage-slaves, does anyone else just truly despise the capitalist system as a whole in general from conceptual standpoint? Like especially with enshittifcation I despise even making decisions in regards to things like steam sales and "competition". There's so many games I honestly I would buy not to mention so many corporations are against game preservation as a whole because the whole financial system that honestly should just be completely demolished, especially as a completely despise... 2 10 replies
The argument "some workers don't have the choice to be a NEET" doesn't work, and the pandemic proved it Do you remember when the lockdown happened and several businesses went on hiatus and people were forced to stay at home? Do you remember the wagies reaction? It was a total desperation for something normal for the vast majority of neets, not in the monetary aspect (some countries and companies even paid people to stay at home), it was the simple fact of staying at home without doing "anything". Things like "live to entertain yourself", "zoom conferences" were trending at the time, normies were going crazy. This proves that... 3 6 replies
why does some normies here thinks they are neet for having a breaks? Like I've seen posts thinking they are neets for just a days or a month some of them recently graduated from highshool but will be back again for college or resign to cooldown a bit. But why they feel miserable? and always complain, like when they rant they always said it's terrible for what? a christmas break?, summer break or resigning a job but don't have really an experience of a neet. Then after that break they will says "bye s\*ckers not a neet". I understand if you have... 4 10 replies
I did alright this year I completed free course which gave me a forklift license. I remained unemployed for about 4-5 months afterwards I’m 23 and didn’t have any references and have only worked for 8 months in my life, but managed to get a temporary job in a warehouse in October for the Christmas season. I managed to learn how to drive as well this year but accidentally smashed my car when I was trying to find parking when I was running late on my first day of work. My mum went to... 1 1 replies
I tried again and failed I'm still stuck in neetdom. I was told that I needed to get back up and try again after fucking up my first job. I did. I fucked up again. Tried to get back to the workforce... Nothing. No one wants to hire me, and I have no marketable skills. I'm fucked It's been almost 5 years and finally admitting that to myself feel like a kick in the teeth. At first, it didn't matter because I wasn't going to live much longer anyway. Now that I actually want... 2 4 replies

Have you ever been in love? I'm 27M and I've never been in love. Sometimes I hallucinate intimacy with a fantasy gf. I don't mean sex but stuff like chilling with my girlfriend in my room. She's going through her phone while I'm on my laptop. What hurts most during such daydreaming episodes is that I feel comfortable and relaxed around her not anxious and sweaty-palmed. Love must be nice, I guess. Realistically, I'm coming round to accepting that I'm too schizoid for Interpersonal relationships. This doesn't make me less human, though. That's just how... 2 6 replies
What are some of your "it could be worse" flexes? I don't drink or use any drugs. I've read enough about alcoholism and drug-use effects. I brush twice per day. Rotting teeth and dental care costs would be a nightmare. I always eat healthy. Being broke, there's never any junk food in our house. No sodas, no fries. Just home cooked fresh vegetables with rice and cornmeal. 2 4 replies
DAE end up sleeping at weird times? I usually don't try to sleep until I feel very tired because I don't like being alone with my thoughts and thinking about my life and stressful things that are going to happen in the future so then I stay up for like 20 hours and sleep for 8 hours. Currently it's 8:41am for me and i'm about to go to sleep for example. I was watching a streamer earlier complain how he only got 4 hours sleep but i'm pretty sure he doesn't have a job or other... 3 1 replies
It's dehumanizing to expect men to step up, be ambitious and intelligent. I hate that women blame their loneliness/lack of a relationship on men not stepping up, not being college educated, not being successful and a lack of intelligence. Men always date down in this supposed "equal" society, why don't women date down? Also this idea that dumb and unambitious men are inherently toxic, is problematic. Drive and intelligence has zero reflection on the character of a man, bad men are evil regardless of drive and intelligence. Equality is realising that dumb and smart people have equal value. If you disagree,... 2 6 replies
