Just get a part time, its like the best of both worlds. It slowly gets you back into the swing of socializing and you still have enough free time to do what you like but your life will be a bit more structured which is a major problem for most neets. Routine makes or breaks you. Also start lifting or swimming if you know somewhere with a pool, its great ways to take your mind off things and just focus on form

[Anonymous No.14484843]

being a NEET is great if you have self-motivation already within you, however it seems you've fallen into the NEET trap of assuming that it'll fix your life. Unfortunately exiting your comfort zone will probably help you. NEET lifetstyle sucks for the majority of people, as they have to live off their parents/it just isn't sustainable. I can't help you, that can only come from within. Good luck :)

I got a job and was content in the day to day and keeping to myself, I was foolish and decided to move to a new city after my previous job offered a promotion (I was let go before my probation period ended) and have been unemployed for almost 5 months now, in a city where I know hardly anyone and send tons of CVs but never any response other than "thank you for the application but were going with someone else even though we didn't even speak to you".

Computer science because its one of the few fields which I acutally find interesting
One other option was Finance but this is a road straight to the 50h a week Corporate Lifestyle and unless you have pretty big connections its very unlikely to get a decent position here

My motivation is that im doing it for myself and not to in order to please some future employer
As I mentioned universities are free and I would probably waste my years as a neet doing jack shit so at least I should give it a try

I just think that I need this whole at least somewhat organised university environment with deadlines/essays/pressure in order to not end up like some depressed suicidal r9k neet

[Anonymous No.14485745]

I came dangerously close to becoming a neet myself, and know a few who escaped it. From that, it seems to me that the best way out is to find some reason to live that isn't tied into the comfort and familiarity that being a neet generally provides, even when you aren't happy with being one. For some that involves finding a job or hobby that invokes passion; for some it is finding friends to fill the void. Many don't realize what they were missing until they attain it and then guard it jealously.
I haven't read any books on this, although Confederacy of Dunces gives a great charichature of a neet and his eventual transformation, which was great food for thought.

Do NOT read anything by Peterson or any life coach after 2005.

Pro tip #2:
You need to change your environment in a way that you cut yourself off from your current way of life. That is the only way to effectively create new habits without falling back into old habits. You can literally reconstruct yourself by doing this.

What is terrible about the neet lifestyle is the isolation. You become disconnected from the world and it becomes meaningless to you.

I haven't spoken to anyone in about 5 months and it really isn't good because you miss talking to people.

Even though you will say "anon get a job" it will be small talk and not the kind of deep conversations you could have at anytime o clock where you could just bring up anything or talk theoreticals.

(Also when trying out online dating, girls do not reply or want to talk about anything deep, how do you break through the small talk with them to the deeper stuff.?)

How to deal with this problem?

[Anonymous No.14488302]

>>14488215
Nobody ever talks about 'deep stuff'. I've worked like 4 different jobs over the last 6 years in different industries, it just doesn't happen. The only people you talk to deep stuff about are your girlfriend/wife, family if you're close enough, and close friends VERY rarely.

You aren't going to talk about super deep stuff with girls on the first few dates. You find out their views and principles, flirt and have a fun time, see if you're compatible. Then they open up slowly and naturally over months, and before you know it you're pouring your hearts out at 3am. It can't just be rushed though.

The key is talking to 7 people a day. Even if its a hello to a neighbour or talking to someone at the cash register. I certainly notice the difference between talking to no one throughout the day, compared to at least 7-8. Its a motivation to get moving. And thats in person not via text or whatnot

My life is exactly the same. Getting a job solves nothing. I was NEET for 3.5 years and now have been working for that amount and my life is the same other than having to do brain dead work most days. Doesn't even fix the isolation as colleagues just mostly stick to themselves or don't go much beyond exchanging pleasantries and perhaps a few minutes of casual conversation.

I hate to say what has has been said so earnestly by normies so many times before to others but go join a club or social group. A sports club like running instantly allows you to bond with others and makes easy small talk after sessions or before, or better yet a martial arts club which forces physical interaction. Just go out and find something that you can participate in and who knows who you'll meet.

And the moral of the story is those who do not have a way to secure basic comforts i.e. food will be forced to do something - anything to escape that. Those that don't will simply die in their homes trapped more by their mental state than anything. When the safety net goes that provides the greatest impetus for something to change - not pep talks but the cold hard reality that money is essential for comforts.

I have spent a couple years in a soul crushing slavery making mobile games and have acquired terminal aversion to any wageslavery since. I have managed to afford a room and several hundred spare bucks a month to spend by giving private lessons, but now that I have free time I spend in on useless frivolties like 4chan. Buying some property to go Ted myself innawoods won't be possible for several years more, so what do? Halp. I have at least 8 hours of time 5 days a week I spend browsing 4chan and some other equally useless surrogate-activities, feeling myself being wasted just as back in the wageslavery soulgrinder.
