(Neet and Shut-in Advice Thread (Version 127)

Not a NEET, but a shut in loser.

My life gets worse every single day. I'm debating killing myself tomorrow.
I find it so frustratingly difficult to make my decision however.

>>17529644
Do it.

My shitty normie brother makes the whole house smell like weed whenever there's no one home.
It's a constant source of tension. He's 6'3 and 300lbs, so when mom comes home and he insists he has no idea what that smell is she dosen't do anything.
Fucking kills me inside. Not my job to raise this kid.
What do I do boys

>>17529632
>Anyone still around.

I am, though my situation hasn't changed much.

>>17529632
>Maybe you have a job, but don't leave the house or talk to people for any reason outside of it?

yikes u got me
social butterfly on the clock
complete shut in off the clock

Haven't seen one of these in awhile.

>used to post in these threads
>today I work 6 days a week and attend uni full time starting next week
>dont even take vacations
2 years ago I got out of the house and slowly built up my life. 1 thing at a time. The most valuable thing I learned is how everything new can be exciting even if its challenging. My fears have never met reality and I grow more confident and content all the time.

best of luck, but i dont think its luck. Find your place in life.

>>17530143
Good work anon, just don't burn yourself out.

>>17530186
I take excitement in little things and would still go on if i lost all i built up to. I'd love to be a neet again, but its for another day. For now I do more than I would like and hope it pays off.

>>17530143

>Tfw flirting with girls at work
>tfw no gf and hate hanging out with people outside of work

I think that has more to do with me trying to build up my savings than being antisocial, but fuck hanging out after work. Vidya and porn for meeeeeee!!!

I'm deeply considering going into an apprentiship as a plumber soon.

Would this be a good idea or no? The pay from the jobs that require it is nice (3500 a month minimum), but that means I have to stay in the program for 5 years, clocking in at 9000 hours of working.

Or should I just look somewhere else for a while?

I tried getting wageslave jobs at retail and restaurants, but absolutely no one around is hiring. I try very hard to write a resume, go into interviews with a smile, and it all crashes soon after.

bumping for safety

>>17530942
It depends on how serious you are about getting into the plumbing trade. Getting your master's license in a trade mean you will always have decent paying work but if you don't derive some enjoyment out of it the job can bring you down.

Don't wait to start your apprenticeship if you feel like this is your calling. The quicker you can make it to Master level the better. You'll be able to get work anywhere and you'll be making a respectable salary.

Same issue here. I fucking hate the smell so much. Smells like skunk. I don't mind the fact that he smokes, but I wish he made more of an effort to conceal it atleast. Everytime my parents find out they get upset and it puts everyone on edge.

He used to do that but it just makes it more obvious now.

I'm going to start going to AA meetings again today. I should of never left. Day 1 of no drinking. Tonight is going to be rough.

Went to a couple cons to see what they were about (and find other socially awkward nerds). Came away kinda disappointed, seemed like it was filled with regular people playing dress up.

Where do (25+) socially awkward nerds meet up these days?

>>17529632
Just end yourselves.

>>17533048
I'd like to but I have debts to pay off.

It's bad to die with unpaid debts financial or otherwise.

>>17532820
>Where do (25+) socially awkward nerds meet up these days?
Literally nowhere, i haven't run into any since high school

>>17533952
I've run into 'cool' geeks from time to time . Some are just geeks cos it's the 'in' thing now but quite a few are legit geeks, kinda make you question how you were shortchanged in life.

Anyone else go through a bad NEET phase where you didn't even brush your teeth?

Fucking 24 year old with hella visible cavities on my front teeth. I don't think I've had a legit smile on my face without a computer screen infront of it because I'm so ashame of my teeth.

How do you go about getting this shit fixed when you work over 40 hours a week during office hours?

>>17535068
I never had cavities but that trident whitening gum works

Also go to the fucking dentist regularly

27 shut-in with a job.

My area (somewhere in London) is becoming too expensive (and cool) for me to live there anymore and I'm thinking about moving somewhere cheaper and where hipsters/yuppies/students won't flock to searching for (sanitised and safe) "realness" and their weird fetishism of poverty.

I thought about moving Crawley but the problem is, I'm not white, I'm afraid of getting my head kicked in.

>>17535068
Actually that was the one thing I kept up.

>>17535103
There wasn't a single thing I kept up except masturbation during those days, that and my weight I guess.

>>17535068
Most managers will give you an hour during the day for a dentist appointment. Just ask and see what happens. If they're cool they won't make you take a sick hour.

I think this is the place in 2014 someone exposed me to Buddhism and I looked it up, it changed my life.

24 y/o shut-in-person here

I'm not sure what should I do with my life given the situation I'm in right now.

I live with some older people besides my parents (legal family, not blood-related, they adopted my father) and I think I can't take it anymore. I am often yelled at because old people have their own way of doing things I don't always follow, and basically because I'm a shut-in and therefore good for nothing; according to my grandmother, I'm not a man because I don't have a girlfriend, and my father is an idiot because he didn't teach me how to be a man.

I wish I could move alone, but I can't. I don't have a job, and the country in which I live in has a minimal wage that wouldn't allow me to rent a place on my own.
My college is degree is useless by itself, and I'd need a graduate degree to get a job; I'm at the moment doing a master's degree (here we can't apply for Ph.D's without a M.A) and my plan in the long run was to leave the country, after finishing the master, obtaining a scolarship to do the Ph.D somewhere else; this won't happen until 2018.

I thought I could live with what I consider bullying, as I've been doing it for 12 years, but as I become older the pressure is unbearable, as they expect me to become a "man".

I don't want to drop what I'm doing, not even risk the possibility of being done next year (which has happened to many people I know, once they started working they finished their degrees years later).

I appreciate any advice, but to be completely honest, I think I just wanted to vent out here because I have no friends nor anyone to talk to...

>24, KHV, shut in, NEET literally 0 friends, now and ever
>hatefull and volativel as fuck

I didn't go to college and I never got a job, been a shut-in since school. I barely finished school with such low attendance.

I feel like my life's over and nothing matters anymore. I feel like there's nothing I can do at this point, it's too late for college and I'm too disconnected from interacting with real people.
I'm basically unemployable too.

I'll propably wait will my mother dies off and then off myself.

Any advice?

>>17536117
get a job? like shit, man I don't know what else to tell you.

Go work at McDonalds.

>>17536117
Maybe community college?

>>17536123
>>17536129

I'm not american.

There are no jobs here, esepcially for young people.

Once, my mother arranged a job opportunity for me at the local supermarket, but they didn't take me because of how fat I was and my 6 year gap of doing nothing.


I didn't use to care but I'm growing more and more hatefull towards normal people, to the point I'm scared I might commit a crime.

Im said I'm growing hatefull, but I realise it's not anyone else's fault I let myself become a worthless dead-end loser.

The hate propably stems from all these years of complete loneliness and social seclusion.

>>17536152
I'm glad you see it. The only question you have to ask yourself is what you're going to do today. Don't think about the past or even tomorrow. The only thing that matters is right now.

So what is the very first baby step you can take today?

>>17536176
I'm not american. It's almost midnight.

I'll play vidya and watch anime all night then go to sleep at 11am because I woke up at 8pm.

>>17536184
OK. Good luck brother.

>>17536107
I forgot to add my other grandmother wants me to live with her. I think it would be for the best, I cannot figure out why I don't do it.

>>17536117
24 isn't too late for college, there were some 30 and 40 year olds in some of my classes, if you want to go then take a shot at it, try to figure out what you want to do though, don't just go to go

I just feel like I should kill myself. Too hard to get a job.
Too old for college. No life.
Other people my age have children and a house and I have nothing.

>>17536398
Complaining won't get you sympathy points if you've already given up before trying; you're purposely wasting any potential you have left.

Get a job at a gym, workout, save up, open your own spit and sawdust gym, start a powerlifting club, charge up the fucking wall p, host competitions for money, have fun, enjoy yourself, maybe even make a name for yourself, start up a business, sell your own powerlifting programming, supplements, specialist weightlifting equipment, use that money to buy and rent properties, retire at 35 with millions in the bank.

Google "George leemam". He earned 20kg a month selling programming and online coaching, bought property and rented it. He now travels across the world, never works and collects revenue from all his property,

im actually glad to see this shit, im in need of a good laugh

Goddamn, I need to start doing something.

Photographer here. I take pics at nightclubs but it's very hard to get more jobs. There are a lot of photographers and they are really good. People tell me I'm great and that I'm the best and dopest photographer ever. (I am actually very social, I love dancing also so I have a great time, I even join moshpits with my cam).

I don't have money for better gear. All the others have the best of the best. inb4 /p/ it's not your equipment blabla.

Now I just made my Facebook page. Holy shit after years finally! Now I'm stuck again, as I am insecure about my work, very picky, thus I have an empty page.

I'm working on my own logo but I'm not happy with it.

Been trying to find a normal daytime job but I won't even get an invite for an interview. Found a great photography job (photos of clothing for webshop) and I have everything they asked for. Even the optional extra shit, I got it man. But nope, not even an interview. I'm too old for most simple jobs. Fuck this.

I'm stuck. I can't do it.

There's no reason to be picky, you can always edit and replace the old "bad" stuff with new and better stuff. But people in general are very bad self critics hence it's important to get's shit out there to get some actual feedback on your work. Some of it might be negative but so what you can use it to improve. It's actually the positive feedback that tends to be the more destructive because it can be really hard to tell whether it's just people being kind or genuine appreciation towards your work.

It's all about getting out of your comfort zone and actually just doing something without even trying to over impress some imaginary audience that solely exists in your head and can never be satisfied.

Alright, lads. I need of help.

Currently, I'm 24. I'm from Argentina to be more precise.

I actually skipped high school and now I'm getting dicked because every job requires of me finishing high school. I'm obviously thinking of joining in a quick high school to finish my shit since I'm 24.

Though, I'm in need of a job so I can actually pay up for this shit, because, my parents are obviously going to kill me or I'm going to kill myself due to depression kicking in.

What can I do in this case? I know that many of you are from USA or Europe in general, but I'm in need of help for this shit, lads.

I've some good experience in Photoshop and I want to do a career for Graphic Design or Gastronomy since I'm interested in cooking in general.

>>17537268
sucks to be you, im from argentina myself but i have my own place and money coming in every week.
I also finished highschool, have no contact with either parent and im not depressed because im an adult and not a baby.

>>17537268
you know what the secret of happiness is?
you just have to realize that no matter how much you fuck up everything is going to be fine because you come from a well off family with lots of money and connections.
Sure im late to the party but i can get a tech degree and my uncle will bail my ass because he has his own buisness, hell he is getting me a new pc this week because how awesome i am

Woke up early to go help some friends move then we went out to lunch. Watched some narcos and took a nap then went over to another friends house for a bit and talked about stupid shit like cars and a few parts we are looking at getting next. Made plans to change out my cat next weekend too. Now I'm watering my garden and going to watch more narcos. Pretty good day.

Nope. Craiglist is notorious for people getting robbed or anonymous gay sex.

Last year my cousin set up a fuck session with some milf but it turned out to be a gay guy in his 40s looking to have a good time. Dude was in his underwear wearing a rob...

>>17538496

>>17538851
Have you ever considered that you rare stressing out everyone around you?

>>17539131

I've considered that but I'm not sure.

I keep to myself even during my daily household duties but act friendly even to family members that hate me. I never participate in family drama and I'm quick to defuse it if I'm involved. I haven't vented to anyone in my house and just keep a calm attitude and smile even though I feel like my guts are in a knot daily.

>>17539269
You're talking to a piece of shit who's bumping this thread for no reason while talking about his hatred towards NEETS.

You talking to him wasn't (and isn't) helping.

We might as well accept the fact that there will never be mods here, and that people like this exist. Ergo, don't give him another (You).

My mind is a shitstorm right now.

>>17539269
The fact that you are always around the house and never do anything at all with no indication or hope of that ever changing is enough.
Before you point the finger at how everyone else hurts you take a minute to consider why they act this way.
At the end of the day as long as you are a neet you will deal with this because as long as you are a neeet you will cause it but at least now you know why

>>17539418

Unfortunately that's the case unless I go to the park, have a job interview or have a friend take me out. I don't have cash to go out and what little I do manage to generate with odd jobs I give to my parents to help.

>never do anything at all with no indication or hope of that ever changing is enough.

I literally clean up after everyone. I vacuum the entire house, do dishes, feed all the animals, do yardwork and some days I have to sort everyone's laundry when people are being lazy. I basically am trying to not be a burden and make myself useful. It sucks but I understand I'm going to get the shit end as long as I'm not putting bread on the table.

I've been job hunting and have hit a lull in any responses so I'm trying to change. Actually got a call from a past coworker today about possibly getting a position back. Yes, I'm frustrated, but I'm not sitting still.

True. Being a NEET is not a title one really wants and I understand any judgment that comes with it. Still, some of my family members treat people like dirt, NEET or not. Most of them have always loved stirring up drama so my NEET status means very little when they're just trying to pull me into their mess and get pissed when I won't engage.

>>17539572

Congrats dude. I hit to hit bottom and have a bat-shit insane [spoiler]acid trip[/spoiler] that had me thinking I was mentally communicating with dead friends to stop drinking like a fish.

Meditation, tea, etc. helped with rough days. Finding other outlets or hobbies to keep me busy helped too. Good luck dude. A sober or even (if you can manage it later on without falling off) moderate drinking life is better than being in the bottom of a bottle all of the time. I don't feel depressed or tired anymore.

cleaning the house isnt enough
im not talking about standing still (even tho you dont rot like some >>17539418)
im talking about doing anything towards some goal like studying, practicing some sport moving towards some goal, if you dont move towards a goal you are sanding still

nobody wants to deal with a neet, you are vacum of negativity that sucks people joy, i dont know your family but as long as they treat you like this and you are a neet you cant complain.
If you are actively working, studying, living alone if you can afford it, not being a burden and they still treat you like this then you are right the problem is them

>>17540099
>trying to fix your life with drugs
why dont you also attempt to learn things online while you are at it

>>17540102

I am working toward a goal: getting employed, saving and moving out. It's not a very complex one but I feel once I get it rolling it'll help me move forward in other areas. I'm hitting an unimaginable amount of frustration but I'm still filling out apps, making calls etc. As I said I got in touch with a past coworker and I might get an old job back.

And as for being a vacuum of negativity that's the furthest from who I am. Despite me griping here I keep a stiff upper lip irl and stay positive around people. Inside I'm stressed or down but I don't want people to see or get dragged into it.

And I agree on the family part. Although they're treating me poorly they've given me a roof, bed and food. But trust me when I say their behavior is very shitty and out of line most of the time. This is why I want to move out and distance myself from them.

>>17540099
Thank you for the kind response. I already feel a little better but I know it's going to be a long road. What tea do you recommend?

>>17540322

Any, really. I just kinda went nuts and bought a bunch of different kinds but eventually just stuck to the usual earl grey, green tea, sleepytime at evening with books and whatever else my friends would gift me. I found that once I cut down on drinking I gained a new appreciation for a nice cup of tea since it felt soothing especially if I just finished meditating. Maybe some sort of tie to drinking/keeping hands busy too?

Black teas and others do have some caffeine so if you're sensitive you might be careful. Green tea has less IIRC. The last thing you need when your mind starts firing on all cylinders due to sobriety is a caffeine high (especially if it doesn't take much to get you hyper).

I can never look at job listings very long without just getting completely depressed because a lot of it is stuff I just can't handle (anxiety pretty much kills anything dealing with customer service and shit)/do/qualified for or whatever. I feel like being in my 30s now I've wasted so much of my potential success even if I did find a job Ill just end up being stuck in something miserable or wage slavery. But then I'm miserable at times without job too so I never freakin win.

How do I get a shut in gf? I'm possibly a narcissist with a minor messiah complex. I own a house, make more money than I know what to do with even though I travel frequently and buy cars and shit I don't need. I'm fit, good looking, and funny and have no problem attracting women. I've dated a NEET before but she had BPD or something.

>>17540156
well if thats true then getting actually employed isnt in your control, maximizing the chances of getting employed is, getting your parents to ease up isnt in your control either but the way you deal with frustration is too.

Frustration is a two way street more often than not, try to find a way to feel grateful about the small things even when its hard and you dont

people can tell when you are just pretending chances are you arent worth an oscar nomination plus seeing you there all the time is enough to bring people down, nobody wanted you to end up like this

i just apologised to a person i hate because i was an ass to him, if a jackass like me can pull that and it wasnt easy in any way then you can do this too

>>17539418
its the people with the nicest words the ones who do the most harm, you should think about that when you arent so busy looking for people to blame

>>17540423

Hmm you sound kind of like me. I have almost 400k saved up at this point at 25. I don't even own a car; I live downtown and I'm kind of cheap about lifestyle, except for travel costs.

I had one for about 2.5 yrs but she was very avoidant and socially anxious. Never wanted to come along with me to events or trips. Tried a few times but despite numerous reassurances she eventually got stressed and decided to stay home in the future. Friends would ask me why she never came to stuff but I would just say she was very shy.

I stayed with her because she was extremely intelligent and one of the only women I've met who could understand me and my work. She never tried to manipulate me or cheat on me or make me feel unwanted.

She eventually broke up with me, though, while I was on a 2-week trip through Asia (too shy to say things in person, always had a hard time talking through relationdhip things), because she found even being in a relationship was too much communication for her.

She's still single now almost a year later. I suspect she may become a cat-lady. We still email each other often though. Writing never stressed her out as much.

>>17540667
Doesn't sound like a real relationship at all

>>17540108
Taking acid as a last-ditch reset attempt once prevented me from taking the hundreds of barbiturates I had bought a few days prior instead. It caused me to realize that I needed to be more active at reaching out and staying in touch with people and that I had been taking too much in my life for granted. My business and dating experiences are going better now as a result, though they still have ups and downs.

I wouldn't take it again unless I really hit rock bottom, though, and would probably take a lot less. I took like 800ug. Was lucky nothing got damaged. Quite the contrary, but I think that was luck as well.

"O Fortuna / Velut luna / Statu variabilis...."

it just sounds like another one of those desperate attempts at fixing a problem without comfronting the poblem or even aknowledging the problem.
Because it is

>>17540773
>things random people say on the Internet
She was actually my favorite gf. We talked all the time and lived together and had a lot of mutual friends through her company. Just, being quite shy, she didn't like going to outside events really. Spent a lot of time writing and visiting family also.

>>17541093
>Hey dude it would have been better if you just died without trying it instead
Of course it was desperate, but therapy and antidepressants weren't helping. I have no regrets.

>>17541118
drugs didnt help...
so i tried drugs

so she stayed inside all the time and you fuckede her sometimes
got news for you, that isnt being shy. Dont get me wrong im sure it was great all the sex you could ever want and you dont have to deal with the bagagge

I'm not living, I'm existing. I have been in a shit situation all my life but things just got worse over the years. I'm lucky enough to be on SSI and section 8, but still I am below poverty.

I got a disease that completely fucked me up mentally and physically. I can't drive because of it. I live in the middle of farmland with no public transportation and nothing in walking distance. Sometimes I have walked to Walmart, which takes about an hour. I live off delivery food.

I feel like I have no way out of my situation, and I've been trying for years to move somewhere I can function, but I can't afford /anything/ and housing absolutely refuses to work with me or transfer my papers to the point where my therapist said to get a lawyer (which I can't afford).

On that note, the only time I get to go out and do something is for my several monthly medical appointments when mommy comes over and drives my ass.

I have no friends outside the internet. I have a stalker leaving me notes. I have a convicted CSL sex offender in the same building as me (a house divided into 4 "apartments") who hits on me every time he seems me.

I easily get guys attracted to me, but everyone in this farm town is disgusting for multiple reasons. I have made boyfriends/girlfriends in the past, but everyone quickly drops me once they find my medication and realized I'm mentally ill, since the stigma is so bad around here.

I am also forced to listen to my family/thier friends constantly degrading me in literally telling me I am worthless and a leech on society since I am jobless and on SSI/section 8. This shit has been going on for 6 years. I pretty much want to off myself. It would be one thing if I wasn't trying to find ways out, but God I am trying so hard a fail every time.

>>17541426
Bonus:
My dad is part of the 1%. He works for the state and makes 9k-11k per month, while I am literally starving. He won't financially help me, because he believes in "hard work and being a productive member of society".... Which has been made very clear to me that I am not by having no job ever and "stealing tax dollars".

I didn't ask to get sick. Sometimes I wish I had actually died like they expected me to.

>>17540602

I'd say I do have some control but you're correct. I have no say after an application or interview. I've fallen on a previous job which I might very well get.

I do need to find ways to vent the frustration and bottling it isn't a healthy route. I often reflect and try to meditate but that's iffy. I do feel grateful and in much debt due to the kindness shown to me by my parents. The fact that I can type this right now makes me happy since I've had impoverished friends that I assisted in getting internet by...iffy means. My struggle is one of a stillborn adult. I accept my status is one of my own doing and that I deserve no pity. I just wish to be treated better than a dog.

You'd also be surprised at my acting and that's not a boast I want to make. I did a lot of face-to-face stuff in one of my two previous jobs and I had people that truly believed I was their buddy after a while and would try to hit me up outside of work hours. It was all business and I felt really weird seeing them but also bad about it. But your point is true since no amount of acting can cover the festering wound that is my current lot in life.

I'm mad, I'm frustrated, depressed and stressed but I keep getting up every day and trying. I did fall into a pit of rot and despair but I no longer want that.

I really do appreciate your responses, anon.

>>17541426
im going to answer your post but im drunk and im tired and i already formed a bad idea of you based in the size of your post

first of all you are a girl so shut up and stop being such a cunt

you arent trying hard, bitching online isnt trying, asking for handouts isnt trying, being a massive cunt nobody wantas around isnt trying

you arent starving if you can afford to survive on pizza delivered to your princess castle for every meal either

walking for anhour isnt a big deal either, you can shop for the week thats 8 hours a month of doing something

actually it sound like you love being miserable, having things to complain about = being able to victimize yourself, keep telling yourself you are a victim and the world is unfair princess you are the happiest you will ever be right now

>>17541590
>I'm mad, I'm frustrated, depressed and stressed

everyone is, thats the secret of life, try to bottle it up and let it out on weekly drunken binge

that shit doesnt matter, the other shit doesnt matter either, no shit matters at all. If life is a videogame we are the starting town (you even more than me) where nothing serious happens and the world goes to shit miles away.

The world is hell and this is the first circle where nothing really happens and the actual torture is waiting
try to be more nhilistic, you are extremely unlikely to fail unless you are poor, i could have fixed my life at any point but im too stubborn to accept help

Let's be honest we are all miserable because we want to, I have met truly hopeless people, the kind who will die in poverty no matter what they do, I met a lady who was so ill she couldn't move without feeling extreme pain and that was the only lucky thing in her life because it meant she got to live in a shitty hospital instead of the streets

Personally the idea of having the people who hurt me or brush me off when I needed them be the same people to help me and tell me it was all my fault all along when it clearly wasn't and they don't want to admit it sickens me to the point I would rather throw my life away hoping I could get them to feel at least a little bit of guilt for what they have done

>>17541606

I'll find other outlets.

Nothing does matter and I know that. I'm not religious and do not see anything beyong our scope. I refuse to let that sour my view since I've seen kindness with cruelty and sincerity alongside sin. This may be fucking hell but if I can make it easier for someone or have a moment of peace I'll take it. If this is the only ticket I'm riding it into the ground.

I'm pretty much white trash with a lifeline from step-family, anyway. That's where the conflict is since I carry myself very differently from my family but my step-brothers, etc. still look down on me.

And as long as you're breathing and can move some limbs you can fix your life. I'm stubborn too and I say you can.

I'm just giving less of a fuck and trying my best to enjoy my days as a NEET. I'm not stressing about getting a job or any of that normie shit.

18 year old, really bad social anxiety for as long as I can remember. School was absolutely terrible for me so I dropped out freshman year. Ever since then, I gradually got worse and worse and by 2014, 84 pounds and couldn't get myself to even check the mail most days. My mom became the only person in the world I could trust and talk to. The only time I went outside or did anything was when I was with her. Last year, right when I turned 18, I was extremely depressed and was basically waiting to die, I was stealing my mom's suboxone. Slept every few days, got high and listened to music, fapped, fought sleep, nodded off, puked a lot. Whatever I was doing wasn't living. I thought of one thing I actually wanted, and that was to go to Alaska. It was the only thing I could think of. So, I left without telling my mom (I hadn't talked to my family in years. I hid in my room with the door locked any time they were at my house) and I flew to Alaska. I spent eight months there, I wanted to die there. I didn't care how. I hitchhiked a lot. Eventually I met my boyfriend and that's when I really lost myself. I was still a zombie so I didn't care that he controlled every move I made and took me back to my hometown. Now, I'm back "home" with him, in the same house I shut myself into, pregnant, forced to get a job even though it's the hardest thing ever to wake up and leave the house every day when I feel like I might snap at any fucking moment. He is extremely controlling, it's so hard to eat every day but I have to now, and I'm back in this fucking house, the memories kill me every single day. The only time I saw any clarity was while in Alaska. I needed it, and I actually took control and had the guts to leave and do it, and I hate myself for how easily I just let it go. I wish I could go back in time. I have no friends and I work graveyard at walmart. That and doctors appointments, that's it, and I don't really care. I miss being alone. I miss drugs.

>>17541875
and I think the worst part is that I let all of this happen. At any moment I could tell my boyfriend to go fuck himself, that he makes me feel so much worse about myself and doesn't even try to understand, leave this fucking house again and go right back to Alaska and start a life before my son is born in 4 months. I could, but I have absolutely no energy. I can't get myself to do anything. All I want to do is be alone. I'm afraid that the second he's born, I'll go straight back to drugs and he'll grow up with a piece of shit drug addict of a mother who can't even get out of bed.

>I thought about moving Crawley but the problem is, I'm not white, I'm afraid of getting my head kicked in.
I would be more concerned with being blanded to death

>>17536596
>spent his whole life wishing for cool people to approach him
>surrounded by said cool people
>forced to move beecause poor neet

Clearly said I was a shutin with a job but not a bad summation.

I'm pretty envious of them; cool, good-looking, carefree to the point where they seem to lack self-awareness. I don't think they even realise that the rent increase is caused by them.

They were also the first "alt" people I've ever seen. All I had in my area before the hipsters were post code gangs.

>>17541948
>Blandness

Explain.

>>17541875
Anxiety is a bitch I have my own issues with it. What really sucks is that people don't seem to understand that I can't "just work a simple retail or food service job". Like that I mentally and probably physically can't handle that sort of thing and yet keep suggesting them to me? The dealing with lots and lots of people shit I just can't do.

>>17542980
Learn to code something if you can deal with deadline anxiety.

Does anyone have any resources for learning to talk to people outside of "just b confident"? I'm not socially anxious, Im just clueless about the structure and flow of conversations. Everyone else seems to do it so naturally but I really struggle to maintain a conversation outside of discussing work and other typical stuff.
tl;dr how do I talk to people without sounding autistic

>>17543645
Having a life tends to give you topics of conversation, so it's sort of catch-22 situation.

>>17542825
It really gets under my skin is that the hipsters (that have flooded my estate and my route to work) all seem to have identities, coloured hair, highlights, tattoos, piercings etc, like you can tell they've lived and I'm just ethnic workslave guy. I bet they don't even think I speak english or speak it with fresh off the boat accent.

>>17543645
>tl;dr how do I talk to people without sounding autistic
Have you considered you may be autistic? I had exactly the same problem for years before I was diagnosed.

Not saying you are, nobody can tell you over the internet, only a specialist psychiatrist or psychologist can do that. You might want to look into exactly what the symptoms are though, because "autism" covers stuff a lot milder than most people realise.

Can't believe someone has resurrected these threads

I hope everyone is doing better now. Even if just slightly

>>17544406
Are you doing better now anon?

I'm seeing a psychiatrist soon for a few different reasons, how long should I wait before i try to mention benefits? I don't want to stay on them forever, I just want some source of income until I get better.

>>17545630
Also related and possibly relevant, i've had these conditions diagnosed years in the past.

>>17544829
A bit. I've been able to stick with the same job for two and a half years now, but I've dropped to two days a week to find something else to do with my life.

Thought it would be something with web development but after going through CSS I remembered how much I disliked coding.

So, I somehow, someway, connected again with some really old friends and socialised again this summer after being a shut-in neet for 6 years.

Crushing jealousy aside, it went relatively well and I had fun.
Then I went on vacations with some of them and we had a break down over my habits of spending a bit too much time on the internet.
So they ditched me there and left.

I came to the realisation then that all my internal ramblings about normies were true after all and I really am incompatible with real people.

So, the real question now is, do I shoot up a school or a mall?

>>17545980
Relationships and friendships are a two way street. You sometimes have to do things the other side wants to do that you don't enjoy yourself to keep things going.

>>17546026
Was I supossed to guess?
One day they tell me to 'keep spending all day on that website of yours you love so much' and up and left.
No warnings, no complaints, nothing.
When I confronted them about it, they didn't want to talk to me anymore.

So fuck normies. If normies don't want to be friends with me then I don't want to be friends with them either.

>>17545980
>Then I went on vacations with some of them and we had a break down over my habits of spending a bit too much time on the internet.

The last remaining evidence of my NEET lifestyle is my decayed teeth, which I'm finally able to afford and get fixed.

17 years was my rock bottom and when I turned my life around, and here I am 6 years later, and a dental appointment away from being a normie.

I rent a house, I own a car, I'm approaching engagement, and I still try and squeeze in as much video game time as I can.

>>17546552
what do you do making 30K a year?

>>17546593
I work for a company that owns a lot of businesses in the state as a general manager over a handful of them.

>>17546603
Sounds pretty alright anon

Been coming here since 2013 late(year I graduated high school).

Worked from Sept. 2014 - April 2015, and now I am working again as of Sept 01.

I can honestly say that being a neet is far better, even though my future prospects are really great right now.

I wish I had the nerve to commit suicide, but I have never been able to follow through.

Remember guys, it doesn't ever get better.

>>17546664
Man I feel you on all of that, for real.

But, hey man life is life, and the only thing I can do to have the life status I'd like, is work really fucking hard and try to retire as early as I can.

So, I plan to work for 25 years at least, save as much as I can, and then by the time Social Security comes around at 65, it should be enough to allow me to NEET through my old age until I die.

As a former NEET, my only aspiration in life is to retire ASAP.

>>17537416
"1 thing at a time" for me boils down to believe in yourself. If you can do one thing and get used to it, you can do the next. Just try.

I took the last 2 years finding ways to enjoy the moment instead of wishing I was at home. For you it could be anything that makes you feel that.
I started with private guitar lessons. I managed 2 part time jobs by applying, got into university and its completely free since I make such shit wages and applied for financial aid.
currently working 2 part time jobs and doing school, but plan to quit 1 job. I will still be able to relax like I used to, but more than that I am focused on productivity and socializing. The more time I get I will still set aside time for relaxation as well as something important.
Women are on the back burner for me, but sex and intimate relationships are super important for confidence and general feelings of content. I could see myself going a loner through life, but would definitely rather have children and all that.

Why do I keep telling myself that I'll commit suicide, everyday? I know I'm never gonna do it. I know it's a cry for help. But I just can't help it. Do you think I'm going to snap someday and actually do it? Already debating getting a gun, although for self-defense reasons, not suicide.

>>17546708
I agree. I am doing the same thing.I worked at 17 and had pension benefits, now i''m in a union and pension benefits arent as good. If i stayed on that contract since 17 I'd be capable of retirement years earlier.

I can expect to retire in my 60s too even if i just stick with my shitty job and pension benefits. will live like a poorfag my whole life, but thats what I was used to anyway.

>>17546891
its just temporary. I do it too. I end up relaxing and going to bed. If you're feeling stressed about procrastinating or something, then work on what has to be done or at least plan to.

>>17546891
Also I wouldnt get a gun. You already probably come in contact with steak knives. I suggest you think twice before acting on impulse. Remind yourself its your duty to live on. There is some comfortable times in any day sometimes they can pass you by.

>>17546891
I own a gun, and contemplate suicide on the regular.

I know I'll never do it, and that's just the way life is. If you do snap, oh well not like it'll matter shortly after. But, only time I've put my gun to my head was shortly after I bought it and was home comfortably with it and at the time had no intentions of killing myself.

Is it okay to just be content with your mediocre life? I don't want to be academically successful. I don't want to have a career. All I want to do is just have enough money to buy books :/

>>17546947
It is but if you only have enough money to buy books you're going to be relying on others for living/food which isn't ok. You need to be able to afford enough to be independent and buy your books.

Homeless shelter or a friends house for a place to crash until you get more money and can rent something yourself. Could also look for roommates

>>17547122
Thing is im a piece of shit who got so many free months of rent no drive or direction anything and i want to better myself.

>>17547160
Free rent is hard to walk away from. If you want to better yourself for the real world it's the best time to start putting plans in motion.
Still possible once you're out on the streets though. On the streets you actually have to get it together so it's even some motivation.

Hey all. How does one find a close friend to open up to? I don't really socialize at all in my life. I head straight home after college classes, don't really talk to anyone. At work, I kinda have friends, but no one I hang out with outside work. I have old friends I am closest with who I play online games with or talk to now and then, and we have a lot of fun, but no one I can really open up to. No one I can get personal with. Most of the time I play games, read manga or watch shit, and go to bed feeling empty. I wish I could talk to someone about different stuff or even about how I feel, but...nothing. Is it even normal to want to be almost completely open with someone?

>>17549036
Typically it's an old best friend or something like that you get the chance to be so close and open with. I can't really tell you for how to get new friends to be that close though, I think it's just something that comes with time. Though there are people who are able to be that open upon just a week of meeting them, but I can't say they're really people who are close, just really good at talking and letting their emotions out. At least the ones I've encountered like that.

That's completely normal though. That's one of the nice things about having a strong relationship with someone.

I'm stuck in a rut.

Every summer I work away in Greece where my father lives, make some money, then move back to England and live out the rest of year in comfort with my family.

Moving between Greece and England has been my life since finishing University (I'm 25 now, finished uni at 21). I try to justify it as work, but looking back, in all honesty I was just isolating myself. Almost a self imposed exile. I'd be in Greece with nobody but my father for company. Over the last few years I have regressed: I look back to the shit I did as a teenager and wonder what happened to that guy.

After this isolation I finally connected with someone new. My first girlfriend. I had waited a long time for this. My whole life I had completely avoided relationships for one reason or another. I wouldn't say I was an incel because I never really made a conscious attempt at getting a girl, other than once.

It's hard to put into words without sounding like a supreme gentleman. But I just struggled to ever meet a woman who seemed right, and I never wanted to settle for someone. Even though everyone else seemed to just settle for whatever they could get.

Now, we all know too well about the modern woman and what she entails. By that I mean the expectations of having to be tall, good job, nice car and just be a chad in general. I posses none of those. And yet she didn't mind. She didn't care I had no job, she didn't care that I smoke weed, she didn't care that I can't even drive nevermind own a car. She accepted me for who I was, I didn't have to hide anything from her, I didn't have to settle.

So there I was. Not only had I found a girl who could look past my vast amount of shortcomings, she also, for whatever reason, found me attractive. The word surreal would crop up in my mind a lot.

The relationship lasted 3 months and seemed to be going pretty well til she dumped me out the blue via text. But it's not the relationship I want to talk about.

(cont)
I feel betrayed; hung out to dry. I finally managed to trust someone. I had waited my entire life in the hope that I would find 'that' girl. Not in the sense of being my potential life partner or 'the one', but just a general sense of being the woman who would finally click with me, and accept me and my flaws. Turns out she could only accept those flaws for a couple months until they grated.

I don't even miss her anymore. I don't love her. If I wanted to I could even pretend I find her unattractive. Yet I can't shake this feeling. This underlying depression, a feeling of being utterly let down and completely worthless.

How the fuck do I move on from this? The thought of ever meeting another girl almost makes me feel ill. How do people like us ever find meaningful relationships?

Hi guys, not sure if this is the right place to post, but I need some resume advice. I'm 20 y/o and currently taking and retaking some classes at some adult ed center to get a HS diploma (got depressed in my final year and didn't finish). I want to apply for a part-time, entry-level grocery clerk position but I have minimal work experience. I do have volunteer experience working with kids, and I was a member of various student clubs when in HS, including library, peer tutoring, yearbook, etc. How exactly do I include that stuff and make it sound relevant? What heading should those be under? And how do I write the education part, especially when I haven't actually graduated?

I've looked up so many resume help websites and I'm more confused than ever. Thanks in advance for any help.

>>17549473
Alright man honestly just bullshit put down you have finished highschool and any relevant experience you can think of, in your resume just glamour the fact that you spent most of your time studying than working, also most grocery stores just hire someone if you don't look or act retarded.

That you have volunteer experience and are a member of several clubs in HS will put you above a lot of people. An entry level grocery clerk position does not require previous experience. It will come down to how well you present yourself when they give you an interview. Just dress nice and speak confidently and you'll get it.

>Not a supreme gentleman

>Now, we all know too well about the modern woman and what she entails. By that I mean the expectations of having to be tall, good job, nice car and just be a chad in general. I posses none of those.

You're just boring. And probably an intensely grating person to be around in general.

I'll never understand this imagined pre-modern era where women threw themselves at dorks.

>>17546603
$30k/yr seems underpaid for the title

>>17551693
Not that guy, but I don't think women ever threw themselves at dorks either.

Thing is, a few decades ago, religious values being predominant and society as a whole more strict, women would be saving themselves for the chads they actually fell in love with. If not sex, at least marriage.

Perhaps that led him to believe they would just fall in love with any kind of guy, who normally wouldn't even have a chance at having a conversation with them?

>>17552459
150 years ago people were geographically isolated to their village and women were expected to marry by the time they were 15-16. If the only single guy the right age was a fat sloth, well, that was who she married.

>>17552459
>Chad

Is an american high school movie cliche character but according to that anon it seems to apply to everyone that isn't him.

WHEN DID THESE THREADS COME BACK? I MISSED YOU FUCKS

Is it worth it to keep a friend, who clearly regards you a backup friend?

Bastard always appears out of the blue, especially when it seems like he needs something, when his friends have ditched him or humble-brag about something.

>>17554133
Yes and no im sort of that friend to people but they understand why i do the things i do, if you enjoy hanging out with him or her then keep the friendship but if you feel like they abuse too much just talk about it stay firm and things should work out.

>>17554147
"Enjoy" is too generous, he's like the only person I keep in contact with, so I tolerate him.

>>17554373
Cut him out if you tolerate him then its not worth it.

>>17554384
If I do that my practical number of friends turns to 0.

And I know that bastard needs me as his backup friend, cos I remember on several occasions he'd call other people just to tell them that he's "out with a mate".

>>17554498
No friends is better than a fair-weather friend. If he is like this during good times just image what will happen when you need a real friend.

>>17553401
NEET FARM WHEN?
Semi serious, I want to do something different

>>17555132
To be honest, I wouldn't really turn to him if needed help. Don't who I would turn to but it wouldn't be him.

>>17555646
Imo drop him, in other news just got 2 jobs and got over my homelessness problem im pretty stocked bros

>>17556074
That's how ya do it
Good job man

I tend to move a lot though, so I really don't make any lasting relationships. I feel like I'm in another period of just feeling the weight of loneliness. I have no friends to really talk to in person, old friends are in another state and tend to be too busy, I have online friends, but no one I play games with or talk to too much. I have really no interest in my current games. Too horribly scared of the post series sadness to watch a new anime, no willpower for a tv show. Just...feels like every day is empty.

21y/o grill, 2nd year being a neet, currently doing work for the dole.
having a job seems fucking daunting, how do people have any time for themselves? how do people juggle that shit working 35hr weeks?
i know sooner or later i'm gonna have to face it and get a job, fingers crossed that it's only gonna be a part-time thing that pays at least $140 a week.

aaaaa save me

>>17556247
I had a well paying full time job for three years before suffering autistic burnout. Honestly I never want to go back to that, I may be poorer now I'm on benefits, but at least I have the time to enjoy the money I do have.

>>17554133
I had friends like that back when I was in HS but as soon as we graduated they ditched me and left to do their own thing. Tbqh, I don't really miss them and feel better in some aspects now that they're not around(our friendship was rather lopsided because I was like a backup friend and I considered them more than that but they would put me down sometimes), but when they were there's no denying that they helped in some ways too (I was in a bad place mentally and having them around helped me get somewhat better). Ultimately, it was very draining and unfair and I'm glad we went our seperate ways now.

It all depends on how you evaluate your friendship with this guy. If you feel that the negatives of keeping him around outweigh the positives, maybe it's time to cut ties.

I just feel like i'm going through the motions at this point. College, work, sleep, repeat. Grades are good at least. Very limited social life, I would only say I have two good friends, one of whom has become rather distant since they got a new SO.

Family is full of death, everyone is 60+ and forgot to have kids, so by the time I'm 30 my entire extended family will probably be down to my immediate family and two cousins. Looks like a second person will be passing this year soon. There's a bit of pressure for me to have my own family because of this, but I'm absolutely wretched with new people and I meet very few if any women in my line of work.

Just kind of aimlessly working towards my degree since some improvement is better than none. No clue what I'm going to do after that.

>>17556247
>having a job seems fucking daunting, how do people have any time for themselves? how do people juggle that shit working 35hr weeks?
Schedule time better really. I do more than that, but I generally have the weekends off to relax. Past that you just suck it up.

>will stick with almost anything for everyone else
>can't bring myself to get outside the house unless invited out even though I know I need it

How do I break that shit?

>>17556491
>evaluate your friendship with this guy.

To be honest, it's not really worth anything aside from ocassionally talking to another person.

>>17557573
Maybe you just have a hard time being outside without a reason to.
Just look for something to do, you can even look online

>>17556247
When you are a functioning human being you tend to appreciate and take advantage of your free time
Most neets struggle with a ten minute shower as their only responsabilitys of the day

>>17554133
Depends on what kind of friend he is
If he is ok with getting the same treatment yeah, just don't get desperate and clingy
Chances are your friend is just busy or dealing with some shit of his own, try proposing fun things he likes and don't get mad if he says no

>>17555190
We are already farming you, every post in these threads gives me 0.001 dollars from a pharma company

>>17558548
>Chances are your friend is just busy or dealing with some shit of his own, try proposing fun things he likes and don't get mad if he says no

Nah, I know what kind of person he is and he is pretty much the person as described before, just appears outta the blue when he needs a backup friend, to humble-brag or needs something.

An example, dude doesn't invite me to whatever it is that he's doing with others. Cool whatever. But then he calls me up everytime to tell me what he did.

Another time he's recovering from some injury or something, calls me every other day to come to his house to watch tv or play videogames. Always awkward since topics of conversation run out pretty fast but keeps calling me back. (I figure either his friends didn't care or he didn't tell them for some reason). He heals, doesn't call me after (until he needs something of course).

The only reason I keep in contact with him is when I need a cinema friend or something along those lines.

I mean, it's fine our friendship is entirely based on favors, it's just become grating when he calls at those random moments when he needs something and I don't really have anyone else to talk to.

>>17558814
I don't know man, I used to have a friend I thought treated me like backup, turns out he was tired of handling everyone's shit all the time and dealing with a lot, when he moved and got his own place he kept bugging me to visit him all the time and now he has a job and a girlfriend and has to visit his mother in another state all the time so he is busy again but we talk a lot and I can tell he cares about me and its mutual.
I know he hangs out with other people, turns out last time when I thought he was hanging out with other friends he pretty much had to deal with his girlfriend brother and friend who crashed his place pretty much daily and he was completely sick of it
Point is I don't really go out of my way to accommodate him and he doesn't for me and I rarely see him face to face but that's ok since I'm a neet who doesn't like doing anything, I don't know you or your friend but hey he keeps you around for some reason

>>17560186
Probably for ego stroking

Are any of you taking any steps to unfuck your shit? Or are most of you fine with your circumstance?

Why are there so many shitposters in here? It feels like everyday my theories about 4chan become more solidified as truth.

>>17561410
What theories?

>>17561431
4chan is designed to make people depressed, social anxious, and create inferiority complexes. Notice all the posters who brag about their dick size and height. "You will never be able to satisfy a woman unless you are 8 inches" "If you are under 6ft kill yourself." Etc. You will NEVER find someone who will help you fix your problems that 4chan has exacerbated. This entire thread should be a positive thing, but you see dozens of people flaming and throwing shit. Why? Because they don't want you to get better. They want you to stay sad, and perhaps kill yourself. This website should honestly be deleted.

What are some some decent jobs for a neet fresh out of highschool , and how do I find them?

>>17561460
Man you need to learn to differentiate between signal to noise in this place.

Though there is a LOT of noise.

>>17561617
This website is 99% noise. It's like listening to 10 merzbow songs at once with the volume all the way up. Seriously, name something positive this website has done for you in the past week. Other than you laughed at one thread, or one post out of thousands.

>>17561727
I don't really talk to people and this place, ironically I guess, keeps me sane from the loneliness.
