>For the NEET recluses and hikkis out there, how did you become the way you are now?
stopped going to university classes, stopped hanging out with people. failed all my classes, my academic record is fucked. trying to get a job now.
>Was it due to an innate disorder you were born with or that later surfaced?
Apparently I have Asperger's Syndrome, but I don't think this has anything to do with it. I don't even think Asperger's Syndrome is a real thing, to be honest.
And yes, I've been diagnosed by an actual psychiatrist with it as a kid.
>Was it due to your environment such as an abusive/troubled upbringing or a traumatic social experience?
I think it was because of starcraft and anime/vidya. At one point, I realized I literally cared more about anime and video games than I did about my social life, my school life, or anything else really. My parents pretty much hate me because I'm a loser, but they still haven't kicked me out yet.
>Ultimately, what do you make of the way you are now? Is it just a case of it couldn't be helped or do you feel a degree of responsibility for 'letting' yourself become this way?
It's all my fault and I don't want to blame it on anyone else. When I get out of it somehow, I want it to be all me as well. My primary goal is to get a job and find a place to live, even if it's in complete poverty, away from the support of my family.
