Currently a NEET on Public Assistance in a program that gives me $33 a week, gives me $200 in food stamps per month and pays my rent. Pretty uneventful, I go to rehab to keep people from telling me to get a job/go to school.

Same here, and I'm around the same age. I talked to an old friend and he reminded me of something that I needed to be reminded of.

I got really scared and thought I was going to die when I was being told that I have a deadline to get kicked out of the house. You know how everyone says they will kill themselves as soon as that happens? Probably a very little number of people legitimately mean that. I kept saying it with confidence for years and had no doubts in my mind. Then the moment came, and I wasn't able to go through with it.

Anyway, right now I'm harnessing the power of intention and how the mind manifests everything. Through that, I hope I will find out how to make money soon. I am completely lost, I feel uncertain about tomorrow, but that somehow creates a sense of excitement that I've never had for over 5 years. Sounds absurd, and it is even to me, believe me. I am still crying every other hour, but then I stand up full of energy and focus. The limit on my time has ironically inspired me to continue learning Japanese, and at a much faster pace. I don't know what is happening to me, but it looks like I have no choice but to keep going with this if I am not ready to die. Homelessness is like death for me, so that's not an option.

I've been working a job of some sort since I was 16.

I've had problems with procrastination, but after talking to a /jp/er about why I procrastinate, I figured out exactly why I procrastinate and how I can overcome it!

Since this is the blog thread, I will go into detail.

Basically, my childhood made escapism a very attractive thing. I was and still am a very heavy internet user. The biggest reason why I became like this is because my home life was pretty shitty because I had an abusive brother and school life was shitty because I've had one too many bad school experiences. My family is apathetic and the only real interaction i've had with them is my brother. I made acquaintences at school and I always had the traits of the kind of kids you never really made friends with (never showered, retarded class clown etc etc). So I had a lot of motive to indulge in escapism.

Whenever I am stressed I always go on the internet because it pretty much was and still kind of is the only positive thing in my life. So whenever I get stressed from any obligations I have, I just turn to the computer and thats where my procrastination and avoidance comes from.

So now whenever I feel that frustration, I stop and rethink about why I feel frustrated and I can cope because I understand exactly why I want to stop working. I can also think about when i'm really idle and I can get back to work!

Sorry this is so poorly typed out!

It may motivate you to do something now but I don't think it helps in the long run. After a while it just becomes less and less until hopelessness sets in. It's still the same options; working or suicide. The world doesn't magically change, though I wish it would.

Being NEET/hikki while living off of others for a long period of time was extremely stressful.

A distraction in something like a community college class or a part time job will help. Don't think of it as something you have to do, think of it just as a side endeavor to NEET/hikki-dom. Don't get to the point to where you'll be kicked out, it will only make it worse. All of this I speak from experience.

Right now I'm in the dilemma of dropping out or being forced to get a job. I just told my psychologist that what I most like to do is to chill out being alone and forget of the world, and then she, like my mother did, said that I ought to get a job if I retire of college. That is awful because I really don't have any interest in that and, as other anon pointed in this thread before, death is better than that state.

Actually, when I say that I plan to kill myself, I mean it, because I had another suicide attempt in the past and I didn't hesitate in any moment. I cut my veins 50 times and took 12 pills, and still survived. It was a desperate suicide attempt, as if I were terrified by life, so I think that maybe this December willl be my deadline.

There have always been two types of NEET. One seems genuinely happy and content living a life with a dim future and minimal social interactions.

The other is pretty much the opposite in that they long first and foremost for social interaction. Most everything in their life is governed by their desire for interaction. Following that they would like a promising future, which usually means worrying about entering schooling or training of some sort eventually in the future. Finally, they're discontent with the labels society has put on them and would like to change their lives for the "better".

Disgusting people, that second group. They really are the lowest of the low. Especially all the people here wanting to get a job, longing for friends outside and being depressed about their NEET lifestyle. Just die already if you are so sad about your NEET life.

That's not relevant to me.

I didn't start taking them in the first place for the reason given in that post, I visited the doctor because I had been having severe chest pains every day - he ruled it as some kind of subconscious anxiety disorder that was causing a multitude of physical symptoms, after the tests showed no physiological problems.

Never the less, upon taking them pills, I actually managed to achieve a mind state higher than the blank neutrality that has been the highest point I have known for years - it was actually painful at first, because I didn't know how to handle it. They enhanced my vision, too, I can see colours that I could not, prior.

If anything, the pills made me even less of a normalfag, I have completely broke the last vestiges of contact I had with people I fooled myself into trying to befriend - they do nothing but waste my time.

I seem to have been able to retain this mental state, upon dropping the pills, I just to stop feeling something like liquid pulsing through my brain, which I assume is a withdrawal symptom.

Being NEET is the future.

As human jobs are replaced by machines, the required number of humans will steadily fall - 10% unemployment exists already because there are only enough jobs for 9/10 people, even some of them are forced as fuck and society would not even notice if they were gone.

Before the end of our lives, I suspect having a job will be a rarity, and governments will simply give the majority of the population a living allowance.

I suspect almost total automation of, say, McDonalds is only just around the corner... why pay minimum wage to a human, when you can have a vending machine do the same thing for the much lower cost of electricity and maintenance? You'd still need a human to defend the store, and humans to fix the machines, but that's 10 people employed could become 1. Eventually, even the security and maintenance could be done by machines.

That is no exaggeration.

Some of my relatives got useless degrees, like English, in the 80s, then walked into managerial positions - it's said that it was only possible to be unemployed, with a degree, if you didn't want a job.

My Dad became a research scientist without a degree, too, though, that fucked him over when he was made redundant at 40 and couldn't ever find a job again. Scientific establishments only employ about 1/4 of the people they did, 20 years ago, so even a science degree, these days doesn't mean you're going to have any luck in the job market - that used to be a ticket to win at life.

The problem is, the lowest tier jobs, factory workers, miners etc. stopped existing, so the lowest tier workers got forced into higher tier jobs. Being a checkout attendant is the lowest rung, now, but it hadn't used to be. "Automated checkouts" aren't exactly uncommon now, either - 1 assistant can monitor 10 checkouts and the customer can do all the work.

Well, some low tier jobs still exist, but even those are hard to attain. I have applied to be a cleaner three times, and was three times rejected due to lack of experience. I also applied to work in a factory, but was turned down due to the "high volume of experienced applicants" (a lot of factory workers in their forties and fifties were recently laid off--why hire me over them?). I even tried applying to volunteer in a charity shop, but they said they wanted someone with shop experience.

I guess the most obvious route to take would be to find some charity work for a bit, put that on my CV, then work my way into an ordinary job. But the very fact I have to do "voluntary" work just to get proper work annoys me greatly. I have no qualifications or skills, and I can't even get the jobs that require the bare minimum of qualifications and skills. Right now I'm happy to remain a NEET, but I almost feel like I had no other choice.

A lot of people still view, download, and even import it with no repercussions.

I think the only purpose of the law was so that loli could be used as supporting evidence against actual child molesters/distributors of 3DCP. I don't think there's any interest at all in arresting someone with gigabytes of loli.

Don't know how it works for non-nationals, but student loans here are a NEET's dream.

Part of the loan is just a gift, you don't have to pay it back, this is proportional to your household income - I went to "live" (spend about 1 month a year there) with my unemployed Dad, so I get about £2000 completely free money per year.

You don't have to repay it, and interest does not build, unless you earn over a certain amount of money, I think it's £18k, which is ~£6k over minimum wage.

If you don't repay it by age 40, it is completely written off and you never have to pay the remainder.

UK is £2600 per year, about 1/5 of minimum wage.

Unless you already own a house, that is probably not enough to live alone. I'm not sure what happens with council tax if you're on benefits, but that's £1000 gone, if it has to be paid. Water/electricity/gas will likely come to near £1000. Feeding oneself for less than £12 a week is going to be somewhat challenging and will take up most of the remainder.

There's no way to possibly pay rent, or a mortgage too. Living with parents is very possible without detrimenting them, though, they may not allow it.

You also have to jump through hoops and show evidence you're trying to get a job, and attend "training" seminars, etc. I don't think it's a major hassle, though.

After surviving a portal attempt last Christmas during exams (train tracks), I got out of hospital, went on medication and got therapy. I ground through my last semester and scraped a honours degree. I came off meds.

A CV I put in one minute before a deadline for an internship got me a 6 week placement. It was really tough to come out of my room into actual work. It helped that it was a small publishing company of just 10 people.

I used my experience editing manga and fanfiction, and my crippling autism to work quickly and efficiently. Scanning 4chan for 16 hours a day means you can process vast quantities of info and sift it for mistakes with ease.

I finished that internship, which was my third unpaid internship, and they offered me a job freelance editing. I can work from home in my hugbox and make €15/hour. As the area is rapidly expanding and professional/niche, there is a lot of work. I'm trying to be self sufficient and escape NEEThood.
