You ever feel like you wanna fix all your mistakes, stop being a neet, and just go head first into life? But you never make that step out the door, because you feel like you're a stranger in real life? So you just go back to whatever feels comfortable? (e.g. video games)
Am I just being a pussy, or is it cause I truly don't want to live a "normal life" at this point?
Probably both.
But you'll never know unless you try. Just don't expect everything to magically fall into place. You often have to try and try again to get what you want, or even figure out what you might want.
How many days in a row are you going to make this thread?

No. I've never been comfortable in life. Being uncomfortable is the only thing I find familiar, so that's what I go back to time after time.

Probably until he gets the answer he wants, not the answer he needs.

I've never actually gone NEET, but there certainly have been times when I could easily have slipped into NEETdom. And there have definitely been times when I wanted to fix my problems and dive in headfirst, but slipped back into what was most comfortable.
I'm on an upswing now. What has helped me is taking deliberate steps out of my comfort zone in other areas of my life, just to get used to the feeling of being outside it.
D&D has been useful for this, in my case. Obviously, playing characters and DMing concepts I'm uncomfortable with has no bearing on any of my actual problems, and I don't pretend that it does. But when I'm already going outside my comfort zone on a regular basis because of these, it becomes much easier to slip in a couple of extra "outside ventures" involving things that actually HAVE relevance.

What do mean by "not truly wanting to live a normal life"? Clearly your current situation makes you unhappy, it's just that your fear of risk or change forces you to resign to your circumstances.
People like you normally frame a "normal" life in "boring normie" terms to justify your existence, but there's no greatness inherent to being different for the sake of it, especially if it makes you miserable.
Honestly if you leave your room and try to fix your shit, it's going to be hard and painful at first. Probably more than the lingering feeling that you're a failure.
However, it gets easier as you get into the flow of things. The issue is perseverance.
Don't get caught up in the idea of fixing mistakes. Just set up one realistic goal for yourself and accomplish it. Then another, and another...
