I'm basically retarded, speaking metaphorically of course and with all love and respect for my mentally challenged brothers and sisters out there. If for some reason you've made it through all this, and care to share your advice or observations, I'd be sincerely grateful. I'm confident any feedback will be at least on par with the crap I've shelled out neet bux half my life to hear from shrinks and charlatans.
That's a heart-breaking story with many twists and turns, but you never specified on what exactly you want advice.

Move to the Southeast. We have assembly through the ass down here. Decent pay, cheap to live, you can work and then NEET the rest of the time. That's what I used to do.
Thanks for the beautiful pic, anon. I was wondering if that was too open-ended, but then again that's part of the issue. Kinda hard to explain. Put it this way, if I could do the past twenty years over differently so that workwise I could be remotely near where a man should be at 43 damn years old. I'd like to find something healthy and vaguely meaningful to pursue and apply myself toward, which at the same time could be reasonably accomplished by a guy my age with a compromised physical aspect to boot. It could be anything, something that would appeal to you that you could move toward in my situation. And thank you again :)
