Dear NEETs and hikkis,

If you were kicked out of your parents house would you be more likely to pull your act together or commit suicide?

>> No.8541303

While I do live with a family member, I'm currently financially helping a friend to get on his feet. Once he's self-sufficient, we plan to live together.

If I were kicked out, I'd just move in with him now, I guess. It'd be inconvenient, but these things happen.

>> No.8541321

It's pretty cold now and I have quite a lot of liquor so freezing to death would be easy, but I think I'd much more likely get my act together.

well being kicked out would leave me optionless in ways to get my shit together...so I suppose the choice is clear.

Consider for a moment that most of us are in a cycle whereby we're depressed, so we rarely try, and have very little substantial to fall back on, and thus leads to reinforcing the depression.

I'd be homeless, of course. I don't have the money to buy a gun or other means of relatively painless death, and I'm too scared of anything else.

I've been homeless before though, if only for a few days. It's not terribly difficult, you just need to know where the public shelters (libraries are especially good for this) are during the day, and where to sleep at night (hopefully there's a homeless shelter in your area, if not this can be scary as hell).

Food is easily gotten at supermarket dumpsters.

i want to kill myself but i don't want my dad to be hurt, he's a really good guy, and worked hard to support me and my sister. he's single and he doesn't have much, so i don't want to leave him behind, but i dont wanna live off him and become nothing.

I got lucky with my high school offering a medical course, which I've been a part of for 4 years now. I never really applied myself to anything else, being mediocre and all. I only went out of house because my only friend calls me once or twice a month to hide in his room instead while we play on PS2 or original Xbox, he did find some thrown away Xbox 360 which he fixed to work properly (dies every hours or so). The only joy I ever felt was working in nursing homes, made me feel less pathetic, even though I am still awkward and do worse than everyone else in the course. I can't even do vital signs correctly and my CNA certification test is coming up. No cell phone, No car, don't know how to small-talk nor communicate for longer than 5-seconds, foreign accent makes me hard to be understood, living off parents, step-dad wants to kick me out and move in his lazy 27-year old son to leech off him instead, same clothes for over 3 years, 5'0 tall, been told that plenty of women would love to date me if I was at least slightly taller, love anime but very elitist about it to the point that I hide my love for it from everyone, live in the woods, missed plenty of deadlines for college and financial help offers, only one friend and he is in similar situation as I am despite always being outgoing. How fucked am I?

Oh and that CNA test? I have to drive alone or with another testee, or I auto-fail the testing. Sometimes whish that I never had to leave this home, but money is the only thing keeping me from doing so.

I'd probably steal from the supermarket for food if I got desperate, what are they going to do? Arrest me? Then I get 3 square meals a day and I'd probably buff the fuck up since there's nothing to do in prison except read books and exercise. For shelter...hmmm...tough one. If I didn't end up in jail, I'd probably use what little cash I have to hitch a bus south to warmer climes, hang out in a big city and be one of those laptop hobos until it gets stolen or broken...Then I'll just steal someone else's and continue doing that! Wow, life seems so easy if you abandon morality.

Honestly don't know what I'd do for money. The idea of working 40 hours a week just doesn't click with me. I can only do that for short bursts of time before I burn out and quit. And the whole "find a job you enjoy doing" thing is bullshit. This is why the country needs to raise minimum wage and mandate 20 hour work weeks, it would force everyone to hire twice as many workers, generating more jobs, and makes for happier workers. It would probably be easy to find work for me if I actually went out looking though, I'm pretty nocturnal and everyone loves the guy willing to work third shift; pays more too.

I'd never kill myself. Because there's nothing after death. And the concept of "nothingness" frightens the fuck out of me.

Of course I would consider suicide, but I have already, and am already committing a slow suicide by drinking and smoking and doing drugs.

If you don't give a shit if you live or die, find. Don't do it for you, do it for him and anyone else who gives a dam about you.

Black NEET here

I've never really considered killing myself

I've dropped out of highschool because the school literally fucks me over out of graduating(Wasn't even my fault) because of one class. My dad wants me to become something great and my mom just doesn't give a fuck. The thing is with me is that I don't want to become something great. I've never had a job before but I'm sure I'll be content just working my 40 hours a week and just living alone in some apartment. I would pretty much just live to watch anime and play visual novels and video games. That is the lifestyle I want for myself. I don't care too much about anything else. I don't want to raise a family or find love its not really something I'm interested in. Sex? I've had it, you aren't even missing out on anything if you haven't. If I had the money I would just disappear without a trace.

My mom kicked me out once.

I moved in with a friend who lived in the area, stayed there till I managed to turn my crappy 3 hr a day minimum wage job into a decent 6 hrs a day $8 an hour job.

My friend then turned me on to Day trading so on my off days I spent time on the internet learning about predictive stocks and how to best ride out the market.

I finally moved out of his apartment after 3 months; I had 3k in savings and was working multiple jobs + day trading to the point where I was making about 4k a month.

I had one glorious year where I lived on my own and Neeted it up, my next door neighbors kept thinking I died, to the point where we had Sunday night dinner together just so they'd stop calling the cops.

Then my apartment building had to be fumigated, my neighbors offered to let me stay at the house they were staying at, but I decided, foolishly, that I would stay with my aunt. Between her and my cousins they stole my entire game collection, half of my electronics and the tires from my car and broke most of the figures I didn't have in storage. So I asked them to pay for it, they laughed and then I sued them for it.

During that time I moved in with my old neighbors who UPON HEARING WHAT HAD HAPPENED GOT TOGETHER AND BOUGHT ME A NEW PS3 AND A COUPLE OF MY OLD GAMES. Which begs the eternal question of "Why are random strangers always nicer than my own family"

Long story short because I had to be in court I lost my jobs, losing my jobs meant I no longer had enough liquid assets to be an effective day trader and my aunt + relatives pleaded poor so they either went to jail or agreed to pay me the sum of $100 a month every month for the next 10 years (Yes, they stole that much shit from me)

So I'm back with my mom working a crappy retail job (which I should probably go to bed to get ready for), but for a while, /jp/ I really flew out there and it was really really awesome.

The fact they leave out of those navy "salaries" is that the Navy pays for essentially all of your housing and utilities. Also, after you go on a 90+ day deployment on a submarine, you get usually a few months+ off to do nothing but lounge around. Since you are spending diddly squat while on board a sub, you tend to save a lot of money. All the submarine guys around here are mostly 18~25 years old and drive +$30000 cars.

I've seen some of you say that you don't want to ever get married/rely on others and having others rely on you/etc. and I totally see where you're coming from.

That said, I've lived my entire life. Whether it was individual choices and wants, or something bigger (getting good grades in school), almost everything I've ever done is because of someone else. That's how I live my life - someone wants me to do something and I do it. My parents always wanted me to get Honor Roll/High Honor roll in school and, even though I would've been happy with C's, I always, always got it from 6th grade on (missed it 3 times in total by getting C's and got the whole "I"m disappointed" speech). And that's just one example.

I have tried killing myself but no one ever found out and no one will. I just trudge through life even if I don't want to, because that's what others want of me. I can't live any other way and I'm actually kinda happy this way.
