I'm 27 years old. After years of failure I dropped out

There is. 27 ain't too late to change.

You'll have to start from scratch. If you can go to a gym/eat better and afford it, do it. Then you'll want to take a job, usually retail, and work up from there.

Your family will appreciate your efforts to change and help you.

How the hell have you survived? Who's paying your rent?

I live with my Mom

First things first, go to your mom and tell her that you're unhappy and want to change your life by getting to a healthy weight and finding a job so youre doing something with your life.

The two of you then can start working together to create a meal and exercise plan.

>lack the motivation and work ethic to take them to a professional level

It's a bit of a catch-22 however the first step is to get a job. It will give you a sense of accomplishment and motivation to continue.

>try new thing
>predictable result
>positive emotion
>repeat loop

rent???

Oh my god...

first two sentences are exactly me. but i then went to college and now have a pretty good job.

but still im crushingly lonely, even though i have two friends i see somewhat regularly. i kind of envy you. you don't have to go out in the world, which is painful for a sub-human who will never have a gf and be a lifelong virgin like me. i wish i could sit on my ass and browse the internet all day.

How have you only just realised you are wasting your life?

I just turned 27 and realized how close I am to thirty. In my mind I've still been in my late teens.

Wtf is wrong with you? I lack the understanding on how someone can survive on this lifestyle. Holy shit it sounds so dull.

It's the only life I've ever known.

My 15 year old sister just got her first job and she's getting a check for a couple hundred bucks every two weeks. That kind of money is incomprehensible to me. If I want to spend $500 on something I have to save for years. I've only made three major ($500+) purchases in my entire life.

Definitely not too late. Stop overeating and join a gym. Take care of your body not just for your physical health, but for the mental aspect. Assume responsibility over your body.

Get literally any legitimate job. Retail is very useful for building social skills if you're a shut in, you'll make money and won't be wasting your time on the computer.

Forget about motivation. You need to discipline yourself to do things you will not like doing but are good for you all the same. Being a responsible adult isn't as fun as being a comfy NEET but it's more fulfilling. Right now you feel like you've wasted your life, but will you feel the same tomorrow? Months or years from now? You have to keep the end goal in sight every single day but it's far from impossible, you can do this if you really and truly want it.
