How you give up the NEET lifestyle and become a normal member of society? I just found out my parents will be moving soon and I may not be welcome anymore.

I have no job, no money, and no work experience. This is looking like the end of the line for me, is hanging a good method?

Get a job or start going to college. Killing yourself is the ultimate act of cowardice; if you have a single gar bone in your body you'll fight on. You'll only be shutting yourself out from future awesome discussions on /jp/ or places like here, future VNs etc.

You can go to a community college if you can breathe pretty much, and once there, you can get student aid or loans or whatever until you figure out what to do. Parents would probably be glad to see you actually doing something with yourself, and may even help fund you depending on your situation.

There's a lot of jobs out there that require very little human interaction, you just need to know what to look for.

Also you may find that making the transition from angsty NEET -> self-supporting dude with a bunch of awesome figures and dakimakura etc is actually nothing to be afraid of once you get started. If you have some kind of severe fear of people or some other kind of problems getting in the way of having any sort of capacity to work, you could try to get some aid for that as well.

I always figured that when I get kicked out, I'll just live homeless for a while. It might not be THAT bad, you know. I mean, you can find a lot of good food that gets thrown out just 'cause it's past its sell-by date, or just growing places. Shit, there's all kinds of lemons and berries I see all the time growing near just where I live. Also, I think it would be fun to try to walk from one side of the country to another. Having no connections to anything, and nothing at all to lose sounds almost fun in a way. Not enough so to make me willing to give up my comfortable lifestyle, given a choice, but at least enough so that I'd be willing to try it before I try death. Besides, if it winds up sucking, I can always just off myself afterwards. I doubt I'll accidentally stumble upon the secret to immortality or anything in the mean time.

Also I knew someone who got kicked out of the house by his parents when they moved. It happened sometime after high school. He got by by working at Safeway and basically couch-crashing over at the house of one of his friends for a few months.

If you have any friends or relatives in the area you could explain your situation and see what happens. They probably wouldn't take you in if you just told them you're gonna be a useless moocher though, so you'd still need to get some shit started.

Not OP here, but I remember on another thread an anon said he made do by doing freelance programming, originally through just random rent-a-coder sites, but eventually getting dedicated clients and stuff. Any of you guys have experience in stuff like that? Does it actually work to make good money, or is the market so swamped with third-worlders willing to work for nothing that it's not worth trying anymore? Seems like it would be the ultimate job for me, as I could just work a few hours a week and never leave my room, I mean I don't really have expensive needs anyway. Give me a small room, some cheap food, and a decent internet connection, and I'm happy.

I've always staved off suicide by knowing that there's nothing following death, and real possibility of seeing some really neat stuff if I'm alive.

I want to live as long as I can for, if anything at all, just to see what fucking happens in the world. Maybe I'll live to see something epic like World War III, maybe I'll live to see mankind land on Mars etc. I've got a fascination with human history and think, there are people alive today that were around in fucking like, 1910 or 1920 and can tell you about it. Things like that blow my mind, thinking about how different people were back then. Things will only get more radical in scope as we live on; technology is accelerating at such a rapid rate that before we die, we might have an opportunity to meet say, our waifus in a virtual reality/advanced AI interface etc. God damn, I hope that comes around before I die, if I'm retired by then I will basically just exist in the Internet, and my own vision of Gensokyo. Such transcendent glory is tantalizingly within reach of our lifespans.

Depends what languages you speak. If you're talented enough though you could probably just get picked up working in a company anyway, and wouldn't need to worry about finding clients. Of course the drawback to that is that you might be expected to go show up at an office and at meetings etc. I guess the only comfort with such is knowing that programmers tend to all be of very similar mindsets; we are a fellowship of god-tier nerds/geeks, and so it's not like we need to deal with disturbing normalfags at Walmart etc. Hell I know there's a lot of programmers who lurk these parts, for starters.

Have a look there, it can be a bit tricky to get clients when you start out and don't have any recommendations, but soon enough you'll find plenty of work there.

Some idiots pay you $50 for something as easy as changing a small variable somewhere on their homepage.

There's also non-programming work to get there.

Oh shit, how could I have forgotten, OP, if you have done your /jp/ homework and can read/speak nihongo fluently, bam, go start down the (short) path to becoming an English teacher in Japan. They sometimes say, that it doesn't matter if you can't speak Japanese but really, actually it does matter, because you really need to know it to get around anyway. Teaching pays enough to get by with, as long as you don't live in fucking Tokyo.

teaching in japan has huge competition from previous teachers and existing ones
also you have to talk to people and make lesson plans and shit which is something i don't think he wants to do
most of the teaching companies will more or less shit on you too
the few "good" ones have even higher standards and competition.
had this been 10-20 years earlier teaching would be an easy job to get but not anymore.

We live in an extroverted world, might aswell kill yourself. I mean can you honestly imagine doing a job 40+ years till you get old then eventually die anyway?

They've taken away the tools we need to die, it's our fucking right to die, it's free will , you can either choose to live on and delude yourself with rteraded thinking and drown your thoughts with external stimuli or you can die. Either way it makes no difference. Carbon monoxide wuld be your best bet, you'll probably experience some delirium or hallucinations but if you are prepared to die you need to eliminate fear and anxiety from your mind. A quickie would be to get fucked up from drugs so you are barely concious then do it.

Lol @ people saying death is the pussys way out.

It's much much harder to kill yourself then to be alive. You've gotta have some guts to kill yourself. Enduring a meaningless existence is fucking gay and stupid just because you go out get a job and fuck some bitch and make more human trash doesn't mean you will gain meaning, look at the big picture. So what if it hurts your family? You'll be DEAD you stupid fuck. you can't think if you have no conciousness so therefore you don't GIVE A FUCK, do you worry about your parents when you have dreamless sleep? I didn't think so.
