As an actual NEET/hikki, I would have to say the biggest problem is simply idiocy.

Put quickly, I am having a very difficult time trying to get out of the house to go to the dentist. I haven't been to the dentist in a very, very long time and now I am scared to because I know that something most likely excruciatingly painful needs to be done, and yet at the same time I know with every passing month or so the the treatment will be worse.

I need to man up and just fucking go already. This is idiotic.

50 dollars to fill up my gas tank. When the gas prices rise this much?

Being a NEET isn't too bad. Only down side so far is that I don't know what the day/date is most of the time. Only reason why I know it's May because my landlord came to pick up May's rent a few days ago.

I burnt out on a high-demand job that I thought was going to be my career for life. I've been unemployed for six months, skimming off my savings this whole time.

That's one of the reasons I switched my sleep schedule to actually sleep, you know, at night.
I used to go to sleep at 6-7 am and get up around 3 pm for a long time already, but now that it's warm that meant trying to sleep right when it was the hottest(my room has the window facing east). So I just didn't go to sleep yesterday until 8 pm and woke up today in the morning.
It will probably deteriorate again soon, but it's a start.

Nah, we've never worked a day in our lives, so it's much harder for employers to hire us because of no qualifications, and because we never got into the habit of having to have to work, we can't possibly begin now.

You are much better off, at least at one point, you will run out of money have have to get a job. And you can.

We can't.

That's the problem, I am just bad. Well, I don't think I would miss an appointment like that, but still.

One problem with NEET/Hikkidom is when you encounter something problematic, since every day is more or less the same and a routine, your perception of time gets a little distorted and it becomes very easy to put something off without even noticing it. The days just slip by as you recognize "I need to do that very soon" but then stop the mental process or end up distracted because you don't want to think about it.

Part of the problem is I've never had anything like a root canal before, but I am fairly sure I may need one(or several) now. As I said, I acknowledge I'm being an idiot and I need to stop, but the fear of getting told something like "We need to replace several of your teeth" is sort of terrifying and is likely to happen. It's extremely easy to let the phone call slide through the days and proving very difficult to pick up the phone and make the call.

I wish I had remembered to keep going to the dentist as I fell out of my life. Badly. I hope by writing this one of you won't make the same mistake. It's simple to prevent so long as you can afford it and is really the only thing that you absolutely must to do prevent pain besides some measure of healthy eating.

Bullshit. I'm leaving my chosen career field entirely. Anywhere I get into will be purely entry level and probably fueled only by the skills I developed from fucking around on the internet, basic MS Office shit, the likes. Or basic certifications from a community college.

I'm through with where I was, and I will get another job, but anything I find will just start in the same place you people would without any experience. Get out there and get an entry level job and just work from there.

You're absolutely right, there are some places that will hire anyone. If you look hard enough you can probably find work somewhere, someday.

But you have to understand that a 25-30 year old with no job record whatsoever is not exactly prime employment material in an employer's mind. So, he meant it's either difficult or impossible to find a solid job. The fact that we didn't work until 25-30 marks us out to anyone looking to seriously employ someone(as in, not just a job at a fast-food restaurant).

That's semantics.

No, you can't get "sick from fapping." There is no bacteria or disease that is directly produced by fapping(as far as we know). So yes, from a scientific standpoint what you're saying is right.

But from the layman's terms he was using, well, if he wouldn't have gotten sick if he hadn't fapped, then he can say he got ill from fapping. The fapping may not have been the direct biological cause, but in the end it was the decision that resulted in him getting sick.

I think that's what he meant.

My biggest problem is getting a good balance. I kept going to school less and less as I got only and in my exam year I pretty much dropped out for about half a year. This was before 4chan even existed. It was the first time I was really NEET and it felt great.

Then I went to college for two years, but dropped out on the last half-year of that too. This time it didn't feel so great, it felt like I screwed up and that life was passing me by.

I remained NEET up until a few years ago. Then I got a part-time job, but now I'm NEET again. I might go to university next school year.

My problem is that I actually want to do stuff but I want to do it in the comfort of a NEET lifestyle. Time moves way too fast for my liking, if I could have stayed 19 forever then I would not have had a problem being a constant NEET for all time.

On the other hand making an effort to do things the society way ruins my free time and puts you in a hypnotized routine.

I feel like such a piece of shit because my dad still thinks that after 4 years some medication is going to cure my depression and get me back on my feet or something. he continues to pay out the ass for round after round of stuff that mysteriously doesn't seem to work. So not only am I bleeding him dry just for food and bills, I'm soaking up anything that's left with this. I want to say something but of course I'm a goddamn coward, and he'll probably just tell me to 'not worry' like always; as if that's going to stop me. Hopefully I just inexplicably drop dead soon so we can all move on.

If you have a medical history of this stuff, you should try and get disability. It may take awhile, but if you get awarded it they backpay you from when you applied. Be prepared for a rejection, then hire a disability lawyer who will take their fee from your backpay.

Since my Dad died I have become more and more of a recluse, turning down invitations to go out drinking etc etc. I recently lost my girlfrined because of this. I am now a full fledged shut and and, technically, a NEET right now until my cmputing classes start in september. The good thing about never going out is that it saves you loads and loads of money. I would say I leave the house once every 3 days or so, just to go to the store or walk around in places where I wont run into anyone.

on a side note, can people please stop saying "hikki" use one "k" as in *hiki*komori

I might be losing my job next week, going back to the NEET life I have lived for the majority of my existence.

I got into a fight with my manager yesterday. You see, I am but a boring, average office worker. 30 min early to work, gets out of the office just on time so I could quickly go home and do whatever otaku stuff I do. I never speak to anyone at work, but I don't go out of my way to avoid people; I can chat, make "normal" jokes, hang out etc. Basically, a monotonous work experience. But then, I was asked to go overtime.

Normally I can take overtime, extra pay and all that - the thing is, my manager wants me to go overtime 2 hrs AFTER my shift finishes. So in the lull of 2 hrs, I won't be doing anything worthwhile.

Something snapped in me /jp/. You see I have waited excitedly for this day to finish as I am eager to see new Touhou stuff plus from the recent Reitatisai, I am also fervently practicing Ten Desires, so as to be able to do well and eventually 1cc it when it releases. And that overtime just pissed me off. Add to the fact that my manager's reasons/arguments to go OT was absolutely hypocritical - although I did expect this from normalfags, it still stings to hear it spoken. Shit like, "Think about your officemates." "What about me? I'll be the one making excuses for your absence to the higher ups." "This is just a minor sacrifice."

Well. Fuck. That.

In a rush of nerdrage, with the help of years of browsing 4chan - I fought back. /jp/ I still can't believe I said what I said, but man, throwing her own arguments against herself, making her realize her own hypocrisy, asserting my own rights - I completely dominated my manager throughout the argument. Yes, we were yelling at each other and people outside her office can hear us, but I didn't care. I can't remember much of what I said, but I ended the argument with - "Yes, I understand that this will hurt the team, I understand that this will take a toll on my record, and that this will give you a bit of explaining to do with the higher ups. But - I'll still go home, because I have a right to not go on overtime." And I walked out of her office. I didn't slam the door, because I'm too nice for that.

I should be feeling remorse, guilt, or shame, but I can't. In fact I feel... proud. In fact I never felt so alive.

I got myself a job again after doing nothing for about 3 years. It has only been 2 months, but it feels like ages already. I hate it.
Don't get me wrong; it's a better job than I could ever have hoped for (given my education and working history) but I stil hate it.

I'm just not cut out for working. All my therapist is giving me is obnoxious shit like that I only have to 'hang in there' and that things will eventually get better.
I have half a mind to quit the job (and therapy along with it) and just go back to doing nothing all day. Only thing that is keeping me from doing that is the fact that I'll probably never a get a chance again if I fuck this up.

Life sucks.

Yeah, I have been doing that, not the eroge part though, just some worksafe games like Patchcon and stuff. But what I felt yesterday was different. Picture your typical loud & obese female manager. She decides she wants to go up her career, so she plays power tripping on the plebes, giving us mandatory OT for work she can't finish.

The reasons I gave earlier, when I think about it, were just made up reasons. I fought back because somehow, I have gotten sick of being pushed around.

This sounds like a shonen manga scenario, otaku guy fighting back, without the harem.

Parents can't follow simple instructions in regards to food.

They had been buying cherry tomatoes every day, I wouldn't have said anything but when they asked me if I liked them I decided to say I wanted more variety. They buy some other vegetables for one day, then it's cherry tomatoes again. I tell them I want variety so that when they buy one vegetable, I don't see it again for weeks. They buy the same vegetable they bought when it wasn't cherry tomatoes. I really stress that I want variety, so that I don't see the same vegetable again for at least two weeks, with one type of vegetable each day. They then buy the same two vegetables they had previously bought, all at the same time. They announce their cunning plan to buy three days worth of vegetables, then three days worth of fruit, then three days worth of meat and then repeating, to say nothing of how half the fruit they buy is already off on the first day. I tell them not to do that. They ask me what kind of vegetables I want, because they seem to be stumped that more than two or three vegetables can exist. I say I don't have anything in particular in mind, but list many to prove there is a huge selection. They just buy the same two or three vegetables, one each day. I have clearly said that there should be a two week gap, but that seems to them to be two days gap at the most.

I almost feel like moving out and buying my own things and being free of this incompetence, but I'm much too much of a poor, lazy leech to do that.

If you study a language and then stop and forget about it for a few years it's easy for your knowledge of it to be a bit sketchy, even on the basic level.

That said, forgetting the small tsu is a pretty hard thing to do.

But I say this as someone forgetting katakana, when /jp/ likes to go on about how it learns kana in a day and only a babby could not know.

You are either too autistic or not autistic enough.

Trying going into hyper autism mode and making a monthly schedule with a list of fruits/vegetables you do want on each day instead of making them guess what you would like, only for you to say you hate it and make them feel like useless idiots.

You spell "hikki" by saying hi- *here's a very long pause, completely alien to most lathin based languages icluding english. Practice it because you'll fuck it up 9999 times before you get it correct* -ki. Yep, glorious master race here whose native language is filled with same kinds of pauses as glorious nihonese.

The thesis of a cruel NEET.

Even if an aged parent knocks on the door of the room now.
You merely stare at only the screen, and smile.
A thing reply to kill time is crazy about that you do it.
The only pitiful days when even finding employment does not always go as you want.

But you will notice sometime.
The living not having a far future dream to aim.

The thesis of a cruel NEET.
You fly away from a window before long.
If you betray parents with the lack of the motivation to surge.
It is not yet over this door.
Young men, become a NEET!

It is a parasite all the time.
The house is my cradle.
The tonight is 4chan of the dream again, too.
Morning comes without sleeping.
Moonlight lights up the thin cable.
It wants to pass away with people of the world.

If you meet a friend and talk.
The guy hears it.
"You do what now"

A cruel social rule and pains begin.
When you saw the death of parents and woke practically.
You do not know the world than anyone else.
Young men, become a NEET.

The parent dies leaving money.
You are anxious about the future.
You live without being able to appear in the society.

The thesis of a cruel NEET.
You fly away from a window before long.
If you betray parents with the lack of the motivation to surge.
It is never over this door.
Young men, become a NEET!

I never say to them I hate a vegetable, I have been fine with them, I just keep stressing the variety in specific terms.

I don't think I'm full autist enough to make a list about it, and part of it was I wanted to be surprised each day, as pathetic as that sounds. I'm just going to let it go. The situation is better now than it was before.

Well you could learn the sounds associated with the kana in a day, but if you don't actually repeat every once in a while, or don't read anything in Japanese they're just going to slip away again. Also knowing the sounds associated with the kana does not in any way make you fluent at reading them, that still requires additional practice. So yes /jp/ is mostly full of shit.

>No, you can't get "sick from fapping."
Doing too much, can potentially swing the hormone balance off balance, lower your immune system, and could potentially, indirectly make you sick.

Also, the hormone thing off balance can also detoriate your motivation, and can result in a slightly increased lack of care.

Other than this, I doubt over-fapping would do much. But I am no expert.

Already finished it, if I may offer some advice, try to to anywhere from 30-50 kanji a day because the whole point of Heisig is to learn the writing and english meaning within a relatively small time frame, if you don't then the advantage of the method is lost on you.

How can you think you did when you didn't? If you think you did, then you may as well have, since you clearly aren't able to remember.

Do you actively know you remember certain words in english or songs even?

Even you don't know you "remember" it in your head, when the occasion comes, say the song randomly starts playing on the radio, you can hum along.

Same analogy buy for language.

Is this true? Do they really say type it as ひっき on 2ch? It seems like bullshit that came from /a/ threads where they talk about how they're a hikikomori between going to school.

Why would they say it ひっき instead of simply ひき. I've never seen them say hikki in material where they're talking about hikikomori.

Anyone who has played some VN or reads 2ch should know.
