First Half of 2020s review Which year have you had the most positive experience of being NEET? [View Poll](https://www.reddit.com/poll/1hn8ymu) 3 4 replies
Hello fellow NEETs. What is your nationality/ethnicity? Just curious. I am a Westeuindid American, as I am an American who is half West European ancestrally, and half South Asian ancestrally. There is even a Westeuindid subreddit if you didn't know, and it has 125 members. I am partly asking because maybe something about your identity is causing you to feel very confused about what job is right for you etc.. Caste system pretty much existed everywhere before it has become taboo to discuss in so many places. 2 7 replies
2024 flew by 2024 just went by so fast. I can only hope that the next 30 years go by just as fast. I love when time flies. I’m 50m and so far my life has just flown by. Looking back the time always seems to have flown by, but looking forward time seems to be going so slowly. It is what it is. I don’t know why but I really like looking back at the time that has passed. Well, have a happy new year everyone, wishing everyone here the very... 2 3 replies
Life is brutal because it's a gamble And you never know what you're going to get. It all comes down to luck. Many things that define your life are out of your control and people often overlook them because it's meaningless and uncomfortable to think about, but at the same time unproductive, so the only thing you can do is accept your hand no matter how bad it is. It's hard to accept the cards you're dealt, but after all, you only have one life, so you might as well make the most of it somehow.... 1 6 replies
10 years of failures My first attempt at suicide was when I was 14 years old. It happened because my mother told me I should just kill myself—that I was useless, a failure, and mediocre. When I writhed in pain afterward, I ended up at the hospital, only to receive another word to define me. The first one, *mediocre,* was given to me by my mother when I was nine, a word I didn’t even understand back then. And now, while I lay in the hospital, crying in agony, they called me *spoiled.*... 2 8 replies
If you're a neet with/because of autism, this is how adults treat us. Example of a severely autistic guy but says enough on how people treat those people. On the outside I am a normal guy and had friends, was not bullied. But this hits hard. Just as that whole reddit and his manager exploiting him.

My self pity and victimization is judgment, grandiosity, and attack. Whenever I go around depressed thinking others are mean to me, others have treated me poorly, others have hurt me, they bully me, they oppress me - This is when I am at my highest and most grandiose. I believe I am the judge of the world. I know better than anyone even God. I am in charge of their judgment and I have judged them guilty. And my self afflicted suffering is evidence of that. The more I make myself suffer, the more I perceive them as my... 1 2 replies
Rarely post on here but... I met this really nice person a while back (2-3 months ish) in this subreddit and we chatted it up pretty well, talked about literally everything and it was always good feedback well thought responses from both parties. I've stopped using reddit for a few weeks as feeding so much negativity to was kind of damaging my mind a little. Anyways, started using it today and come to find out they haven't posted in a while and apparently their account is gone. I truly hope she's ok and never... 2 1 replies

Video games are my lifeline They are literally the only thing I got going on in my life. The only form of human connection I have is with npc characters, they’re the only way I get to experience friendships/romance. And the closest thing I will get to feel excitement or a sense of adventure is by playing through the story. I especially love story-driven games, I recently finished Road 96 and I absolutely loved it. I get so attached to the characters (happens a lot) and I think about them for days. Anyways I’m... 2 4 replies
