Haven't left the house in over 7 years
Dude, that's insane how did you do that?
>>36740591
How? I lost all hope. I realized humanity is not for everyone. The outside world not only scares me but annoys me and I'd rather just do my own thing.
And luckily with our online world these days it's not hard. I have no social media. Rarely speak to mother. I just order food to my house. I don't shave or cut my hair. I leave garbage outside my door and rarely clean. I've gotten used to it and even though it's been years since I've spoken to anyone...I prefer it. It can get lonely but at least I don't have to leave my room.
The entire world is my home so I can never leave it
>>36740552
I haven't left since last xmas, besides that I only go outside to smoke cancer sticks. haven't been in public in at least 8 months.
>>36740552
There's a woman at work who had a breakdown in her 20s (she's super anxious and apparently at the time her 'friends' stole her meds and tried to frame her for something) and apparently she didn't leave her home for three years. Her parents would visit her, drop off shopping each week, but that was it.
She's 42 now and seems fairly happy, so there's still hope left OP.
>>36740626
I smoke and drink in my room. Nobody comes here anyway so I don't have to worry. 8 months eh? So you're relatively new to the game but you'll get used to it. How's life been for you? Any difficulties?
>>36740552
It's been about 2 years for me. Leaving the house makes my psychosis get way worse so I wouldn't end up doing anything anyway. The government is scared of me hurting someone if I go in public, so I get paid to stay at home.
Same. About seven years. Maybe six.
It's not that bad though.
>>36740552
Your version of reality must be interesting. How's your sanity holding up? I felt like I was going nuts from being unemployed for 2 years and spending 99% of my time in my house, but to never leave the house in that much time seems like it would be a special kind of hell.
>>36740753
well i've been neet for 2 years, went to the looney bin 6 months in. moved back to my moms, yesterday she was complaining that I never leave the house and I need to do something. besides the weekly getting told I need to do something it isn't bad. depression comes and goes. would be nice to have neetbux but I couldn't take talking to doctors.
>>36740842
My doctor got me on da neetbux for anxiety years ago luckily.
And yeah >>36740753
I do have some days where I feel shitty and talk to myself sometimes but you get used to it and move on unless youre actually insane.
>>36740842
ment for. hopefully it doesn't fuck up again
>>36740653
>>36740653
>>36740552
You're wasting your life. Stop being scared of experiencing things
>>36740873
I had no life before though, anon. I'm a robot. No friends, never had a girlfriend, family is small and hates me...No job. I have no life and even if I went out and tried to force it I'd just be more depressed, anxious and miserable and likely still mostly at home.
It's all an illusion. Reality is a matter of perception. Maybe you're truly the scared one, too scared to stop trying.
All these little dreams you have, they're not shit. All this rebellion, all this crazy shit you're doing, you're getting too old for this shit, man, you gotta grow out of it.
Growing up, your dreams are getting bigger. You gotta look at reality, understand that shit so you don't get caught. I'm just being real
>>36740873
having a shit job isn't any better. It's way worse
>>36740911
Deep shit, anon-sann.
>>36740911
>Maybe you're truly the scared one, too scared to stop trying
Lol I'm enjoying my life for the most part. You are the depressed manchild. Take my advice or don't but eventually you will be old and have no more fresh chances
>>36741012
You're just as manchildy as the shutin, bro, you sound like you're twelve. Y'all need to take a look at yourself too.
>>36740960
Clearly he does not require a shit job to live, since he does not have one now
>>36741012
>Lol I'm enjoying my life for the most part
Then you do not belong here.
>>36741033
Where is your evidence of me being a manchild? I have said nothing about myself. Seems like everyone is projecting ITT
>>36741040
I'm an oldfag. Stay mad virgin
>>36741054
I'd bet money you at least semi-regularly use social media, have at least 1 friend and have had relationships.
FUCK OFF NORMIE SCUM!
>>36741070
>calling a robot a virgin
Stop lying you're not an oldfag. You're a normie, leave now and never return you fucking retarded, smarmy, cunt.
>>36741012
and soon after eventually he'll be worm food
but not you though right
>>36740552
Seriously 7 years? Not even for a second? What age are you please and can you answer some questions for me
Do you ever get fresh air from an open door or window? Do you ever just stand by an open door or window and look out just to check up on the world? Do you go into your garden if you have one? Does the outside air smell strange or different to you? Is it a pleasant or just a neutral smell?
>>36740911
Mike? aisgbu9asdb9y-2
>>36740979
>deep
Can't tell if sarcasm. Someone who spends their time so afraid of the outside world they haven't left the house in nearly a decade is not someone equipped to pontificate on the meaning of modern existence
I've given up on socializing but I still leave the house to do things I enjoy like going for walks or bike rides at night.
I still like the aesthetically pleasing aspects of the outside world
>>36740552
I think the longest I've gone is a few months. I usually only leave because my family forces me out. I've been a NEET for four years now.I actually enjoy my life though, I love learning and the internet makes that easy.
>>36741206
are you fat? i hate seeing fat dudes walking/biking around town, get fit at home before showing your head
>>36741239
no. i also go to the gym occasionally
if you saw me outside guarantee you'd think i was a chad. i have an athletic disposition but a robot brain
>>36741263
pictures or it did not happen
>>36741263
Truly a cruel twist of fate.
I only go out after midnight. That's my only time I feel fine outside.
I go to the cinema like 6 times a year and go for walks sometimes, I just have literally no other reason to leave the house
I go out for my evening school but before that i spent two years being mostly at home.
why do your parents keep enabling you, anon? what would you do if mommy stopped carrying away your trash?
>>36740617
Get out, literally
>Able-bodied shut ins exist
I don't get this. I get depressed if I don't go outside and walk around at least an hour every day.
>>36740552
>>36740552
>order food
What do you do to make money to pay for food?
>>36742167
Same here anon,2 AM walks are the best
>>36742247
n33tbux 4 life fammo
>>36742253
You get enough neetbux to pay for all the food you eat?
>>36742238
no one expects you to understand normalfag
>>36742271
Y-yes? (Origami Panzerotti)
>>36740617
I could never understand that. I'm hopelessly antisocial, dropped out of university because I really couldn't handle basic social interactions but I like walking for hours, early morning or evening. My favorite pastime is taking the ferryboat to the countryside to swim and run along the shore.
>>36742396
I'm an autistic 28 year old friendless NEET virgin, but I still like being outside
When it's too sunny outside I wear sunglasses which completely conceal eyes and keep them closed while walking, opening them just briefly enough so I don't bump into things. It's nice, entering a different state of mind. You should try it to deal with your phobia.
>>36744127
>tfw can't see when the sun is out
it's to bright for my eyes, when I was younger I always looks at the sun and lights which didn't help my eyes
The past 2 1/2 years I'm lucky if I leave the house once a week. I guess I'm /sometimesleavesthehouse/
Only leave the house if im with my family. Haven't been outside by myself in over a year
>>36740552
Hey man, hope all is well.
I only leave my house at night time. There are many reasons why i do this. Firstly, I take college classes online, so I have no need to leave. Second, I have no friends to meet up with. Third, It is hot as hell where I live, so if I did try going out, i would just hate it anyways.
I go outside from 1am to 4am because i am riding my bike as a hobby. I have lost a lot of weight, my legs are now really strong and it is something I look forward to.
>>36742498
Literally autism. Autists love to wander and are attracted to water.
>>36744753
not him but I always stop at the creek to watch the water flow over the stones
so visually satisfying
>>36740617
you need help anon
>>36740626
>>36740687
>>36740689
get help
>>36744990
>get help
GET OFF MY BOARD REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>36744732
>College classes online
This sounds cool, what do you do?
>>36740552
I only ever leave the house to go grocery shopping for my mother.
We have a weird sort of arrangement. She's got a lot of money but she's kind of immobile (really bad knees and ankles) and I hate life. She said she's OK with me being NEET as long as I do a laundry list of daily chores, which includes going grocery shopping.
So basically I take care of my mother and have to bike to a nearby Fry's to pick some stuff up. But outside of that, I never leave the house. I'm like a hermit. I am probably going to be living with mommy until she dies, at which point I'll probably just kill myself.
It will be nearly impossible to live on my own after 34 years of never having a single job.
>>36745059
I am a loser, have no friends, but it's not okay to never leave the house. Come on.
>>36745154
I am just at community college. Taking general ed classes. Right now, I am just taking Geography of Human development and Intro to Geography and a lab. (im a geography major if u couldnt tell) I am mortified that i will have to get out and go to a real university for 2 years after i am done here :O
Kind of, I go outside to go to work and go outside to buy food once a fortnight
My job doesn't really require talking to people and I always use self serve checkouts so I don't have any more human interaction than I did as a full time shutin.
>>36745323
He can do what he wants faggot.
>>36745323
why would I want to go out? I have no money and I don't like being around people.
>>36745323
fuck off normalfag. origini
I go outside like once a week maybe. Longest was a month or 2 I think
It's been 7 years for me as well. All of my id expired and I can't even open an bank account and other things.
>>36740687
you're lucky mate. I live in a shitty country where mental health care and government assistance is really poor. I can't even get to point of asking for help.
The last time I tried to seek help the people were very unhelpful and i was traumatized by the experience. I just assumed they didn't care and will only worsen the situation.
>>36741012
If you're enjoying your life, why are you teasing a depressed man on a slovakian basket weaving forum?
>>36746986
actually, move to slovakia. Find a way to do something shitty online in the US and just move to slovakia
>>36744965
I like watching how water flows around rocks and splits into different streams
>>36740552
Do you ever feel that your non-participation in the social world is throwing everything off kilter?
Every day I read horrible news stories of domestic violence and just people doing horrendously stupid things. Sometimes I think there is a karmic balance to life or something.
Welcome to the NHK makes it look so easy.
>>36740552
Dangerously close to becoming this. Can you chart out your daily schedule or daily activities? I'm genuinely curious.
I've realized just how full I feel when I'm not around people, they just sap the life out of me. I'm very aware of the acts that a put on around them, and they really have no idea about who I am, but I know the exact same goes the other way. I can get it all but it's just not enjoyable, nothing feels spontaneous, it's like a rainbow without color. Most people just completely go along with the thing and lose themselves in it, which is really the point of it all, but I just want to observe.
I don't want a relationship, I don't even really want to ever have sex, but I want to know a person other than my own. Every single detail about their lives, every experience, everything that made them them, I want to know what it feels like to think not just like them, but to really know the fundamentals of their logic. I dunno, this feels really emotional to me for some reason.
I'm not depressed though.
