So have any long-term NEETS (7+ years) escaped NEETdom for the better?
How'd you do it? Is it possible? What do employers think about it?
It's okay if you trolls say mean things or joke about it or whatever, but I'm also wanting to hear real stories if you guys have them
Bumping for a second chance
don't think its possible, can't see myself working with other people.
Welp, I guess that's that
I was NEET from 16 to 27.
I just got my HS certificate now in 2015.
I am starting my bachelors degree in 2016 and I am being paid by the government about $900/month so long as I do all the course work.
I don't really know if I'll even be able to get a job after I finish my degree but now I am being paid to attend university and I am getting a degree ontop of it....so it's better than just doing nothing. And in the end if I can't find work the gov will just switch me from study-bux to jobseeker-bux.
I'm about to. Starting at a ~$70k/year job after being NEET for more than a decade. Therapy and medication have helped somewhat, as has trying to improve myself so I could win over a girl. Really though, I just grew tired of waiting to die.

I still have to rehabilitate myself. I'm as messed up as ever. Maybe more so.

I didn't have a job until I was 20. Not 7 years, but it's kind of the same.
I went to a temp agency for a Amazon.
Done a few other temp agencies since.
Jobs that hire in bulk and temp agencies don't really care to check.

That's insane. What's the job, and how did you get it?
Were you actually a NEET or just self-employed?

of course not, you've made this lifestyle concrete by that point, only an extreme event can change a person after that many years of wasting away.

may I ask what it was that made you into changing your life?
