28 now

Still live with parents working full time night shift

Laying in bed now waiting for time to pass so I can go downstairs without having to deal with the smalltalk. I try to avoid them all day/night. Feels shameful living with my parents at this age. But I've got at least $2600 more to pay in dental expenses before I can move out.

My deepest wish is to go an entire day without having to see or talk to anyone. Just shut off my phone, lock myself in my studio apartment, and just vegetate.

In the afternoon he died, he received a volume of his recently published book "Que viva la musica!" and wrote a letter to his friend Miguel Marias where he mentioned that his woman just left him for a reason he did not know.

I struggle every day with near crippling anxiety as a result of PTSD from a bad acid trip from years ago. Somehow I'm not suicidal yet, but every day I constantly feel like I'm on the edge of losing it and going full padded-room mode. I work at a job I hate and that aggravates my anxiety for the sake of money, and it isn't even guaranteed I'll keep this job because I'm a temp right now, but I need it so I can move out and learn to be independent so I can gain a modicum of self esteem and confidence. I have no interest in anything besides watching Netflix and sleeping, even fapping is gone because the anxiety gets worse when I cum, so what's the point? I can't go outside without flipping out because agoraphobia, and being in a car or bus freaks me out too. I don't know what to do anymore and the meds aren't helping quickly enough. I just don't know what to do anymore, rowboats.

It was a BA in Psychology, which does fuck all in terms of opening doors to an actual career. It's fine as a stepping stone if you're serious about going to grad school and actually map out your career options, though.

This is case for most undergrad degrees in general, even some of the STEM degrees. You'll get a solid foundation during undergrad, but will still need an advanced degree before being able to move into certain positions or obtain specific certifications.

25 and coming to accept a truth that I always known deep down: that trying to be friends with anyone means being disappointed. People have always found a way to let me down and my standards aren't even that high. I just think that people on the whole are far too selfish to be able to make a genuine connection but whatever the reason: I'm done letting anyone else into my life, including family.

I haven't trusted anyone since I was a kid and I have even less reason to trust them now. I'm not like the other posters here on r9gay: I don't care about having a GF. I've been alone now for so long that the prospect just seems absurd to me and completely backwards. Of all the things that I need to do right now, having a GF is the most useless thing I could think of and in fact wouldn't help me since I'd have no time for my research.

My biggest priority right now is money and I'm currently in the process of starting a consulting firm. In any case: I've accepted that the only way I can ever have something called "a job" is that if I'm in 100% control of my work and schedule, and the only way to do that is to build a successful business. I know a lot of NEETs spend their time playing video games and doing nothing useful, but I've spent years working on my own ideas to the point where I've been published in a few journals despite not having a degree. I think that it would scare most people to realize how capable they were but I'm starting to ramble.

I've been awake for ~48 hours which isn't that long but everything is a blur right now. I want to sleep but the long term costs of using sleeping pills just aren't worth it.

It does become less exciting in many regards, after HS and college, but there's room for it to remain great and grow greater. Sounds cliche, but opportunities don't necessarily end with college. Career growth is always a prospect, raises, etc. Certainly not the most exciting stuff. But that's adulthood for you. There's also exploring yourself. You're finally beginning to live independently/as an adult, in the "real world." Let yourself at least find comfort in this discovery process.

You're still young, man, don't break. 20-25K is a lot better than folks stuck making 13K tops in retail/food/service. But even some of them find joy. That's what it's really about. Try not to be so despondent. You have some notable time left.

Apologies for the loss, it sounds tough. 1/3 of millennials ~21-34 are living with their parents. Don't be so rough on yourself.

I'm similar. Sworn off all relationships completely over 2 years ago. Since then I haven't talked to anyone that wasn't in a professional setting or my relatives. I have had older "friends" attempt to contact me a few times, but I just play it off and continue not talking to them. One dumb bitch I met over 5 years ago online seriously refuses to stop emailing me (she thinks I'm dead as I cut all contact about 7 months ago.)

I think the worst shit is always meeting people that you, or even them, consider a friend yet say things like "you need friends" and similar comments. I will say it's almost impossible making any if you don't already have some. I have yet to meet someone that didn't do this. Debilitating on the mind after awhile, but I keep chugging along.

31 and just found out recently that I may have Asperger's syndrome

Have a part time job working as a the guy who takes tickets at a movie theahter and then directes people to which screen their movie is playing at

It's better then nothing but it's still a pretty shitty job that even a monkey can do and I don't get much hours since I can't drive and thus can't close since the bus around here is absolute shit and doesn't run late enough at night for me to be able to get home.

Have an IT degree but it's outdated by nearly 8 years now. Can't seem to get a real job to save my life.

Feel like a dinosaur since I'm the only one at work without a smart phone, or even a cell phone in general. But I'm never really anywhere but at home or work so why would I need one?

Have almost zero social life since the few friends I have are very busy living their own lives as adults.

Never had a date in my life. Would like to meet someone around my general age but have no idea how to even start.

Live with my parents but the only reason I'm not paying room and board is because I'm lending them a bunch of money.

Constant crippling fear of what I'm going to do if something happens to my parents or how to take care of them as they get older since as it stands I can barely take care of myself.

Tried walking around the block everyday for awhile for exersize but had to stop because it was starting to hurt my legs really bad and winter was coming making it too freaking cold to bother. Now that it's getting warmer again I should start up again but am afraid to hurt my legs again especially since I have to stand the entire time I'm at work.

Only real improvment lately is that I've been drinking much much less pop and actually started to drink water. At first it tasted like shit but I've finally started to get used to it, thought I still have a problem making sure I'm drinking enough on days I'm not working

My life is fine atm, can't really see myself doing anything else. The reason I can take months off every year is because I'm an electrical contractor and I can take breaks between jobs, which last a few months usually for the commercial jobs I go for. This wouldn't work for a lot of jobs obviously.

Don't fall for it. I quit my job with the same idea in mind and now I've been a NEET for a year and I'm just as depressed, if not more so than I was in that hell. I'm not telling you to resign yourself to being stuck there, but you have to get the ball rolling while you're still there.

This is key. Otherwise, you'll fall into the trap of "Hey, I'll relax for a week or two" and stagnate before you know it. I know you're probably tired as hell when you get home and tell yourself you've earned the time to shitpost here or play vidya etc. But you have to make small steps until you've acquired the discipline and the routine of working towards whatever it is you're trying to achieve otherwise you're fucked.

I had plans to start exercising, travel Europe and force myself to push through the anxiety of dealing with basic day to day challenges, but I was too weak. Now I've managed to convince myself that I don't care about anything. Good luck, anon.

2 months ago, me and my younger brother got kicked outta home over a dispute. We stayed with another set of brothers while their mother was in her other home in Africa.
But their living situation got fucked withing the first week.
No heat/gas
No hot water
Me and him depend on our bikes for a 10 mile ride to work, so that was a nightmare.
We sold our PS4
My brother sold weed at our job.
Luckily for me, I waited till the absolute last minute to file my taxes.
We toughed it out for those 2 months and saved enough to get an apartment in the super shitty ultra ghetto section of town.
Nearly fucking starving ourselves on a ramen and dollar pizza diet.

So things are looking up. Its a little late on my part. Im 28, and hes 22. Im proud of him. He made the most moves. I just sat on the money and didnt do anything stupid like im prone to doing.

Pic related. Parents kicked the dog out with us. Our friend didnt want the dog shedding in his apartment, so we had to give it to a shelter...

Yea, always thought city life would be nice -- maybe I'd actually make friends or develop some useful skills (maybe even social) aside from computers.

Nope. Well, now that that shit ship has sailed, I actually understand the appeal of true solitude. If I'm going to always be alone (pushing 30), I'd rather live in a shack in the mountains with a rifle, rather than in a noisefest full of fucking normies and roasties.

If you're worried about your age, that's not too late to get a boyfriend.

The most difficult thing is not belonging. Knowing that you're incapable of such a thing. For those who are young and still have a chance to be somebody, keep after that goal. You don't want to be nobody, to be nothing. It bleeds your soul dry. I can't stand people seeing me in real life. Hearing me talk and that recognition that I have nothing to say and I'm empty.

similar story, I used to brush the suspicion off as just typical self-diagnosis bs but then I spoke to my mother about it and she brushed it off with a sort of confirmation of it. felt weird but in a way a bit of vindication that my brain is just wired weirdly from the start instead of me just being a total fuckup through my own fault. She should of told me about it earlier though, at least that way I might of been able to act a bit more like a normal human being whilst growing up instead of what I am now which is a massive recluse.

A few years ago I was in the best shape of my life, was training to run a marathon, I was seeing a woman I really liked and who really liked me, and I had just landed a great civil service job that would have kept me secure for decades

Then I had a nervous breakdown for no reason followed by an intense depression and lost everything. I almost had it all and now I'm an unemployable loser that women won't even look at (I don't blame them), I'll never be able to get back to where I was. Fuuuuck me

i'm 27. being post-25 is weird. it's impossible to imagine when in early 20s. but overall i'm the same dude just getting smarter and wiser every year. hopefully I die this year and my band becomes famous and makes my family rich. kek.

I moved to an actual city, do cool stuff all the time

unfortunately I went from being a solid 7/10 to a 5/10 due to everyone being super athletic and outdoorsy here.

i've gotten laid more than ever before but not with any girls I really like.

recently got hit by a dumb bitch driving a car and broke my leg in three places. debating what to do with all my lawsuit money.

I still have the same depression and suicidal thoughts i've had all my life, i've just gotten better at dealing with it.

i've come to the conclusion that i'm not going to land an attractive bebe until i'm in my 30s, when potential partners looks begin to fade and they have more realistic expectations.

(just an unfortunate picture of what it would be like) if getting her to meet you was like pulling teeth, then the girl refused to go to crowded places, would not meet your family, didn't want to see you to sit and play rift instead, was terrified of sex, and was so set in her ways to change, it would probably be not so great being with her

26, 27 in a month.

You know what is actually worst thing?

That even if you broke up from your NEET shell, even if you do cool, interesting and adventurous stuff, even then, sooner or later, reality kicks in.

I have spent my first 22 years of life as a perfect example of NEET. Got into the huge debt, no higher education, lived on oddjobs, did some serious mistakes with a law, lived off neetbux... You know it. Then I managed to turn it around. Got a girlfriend. Good job. Nice flat. After two years, I began having sleeping issues and one night I just cracked it. I was looking up to the ceiling and asked myself: "This is it? This is everything?"

During the next weeks I broke up with her (found out she was cheating anyways later), leave my job. I have taken unemployment bucks and started working out, running and boxing. After a few months I sold everything I have left, bought a ticket to France and joined French Foreign Legion.

I spent there another two years. It was the most difficult, yet most giving experience I have ever done, but nevertheless, I was not cut out for it, so I left. I traveled a bit then and finally got back.

And here I am. No formal education, huge ass debt, I have a month to the trial (which will not probably put me in jail, but send me deeper to the debt spiral), no career at all, no job other than night-shift guard. I play vidya which bore me to hell and have nothing to live for and even worse, even nothing to die for.

There is literally nothing in this world.

Yeah, I admit it may look like that. What I wanted to say (and utterly failed in the process) is that most of the /r9k/ spent their time here wishing for something. Girlfriend, good job, education. Even the adventure or just "fun" above usual vidya.

What I've meant that I got those things. And they suck and are similarly pointless as being NEET. That or it is me specifically who is fucked and others may find their happiness in those things.

i used to be so frustrated and write all the kinds of posts i see on r9k

but now im just completely apathetic. its rare that i write something like this, but anyone know this feel?

i was depressed and desperately trying to find ways out of it, but nothing made a difference so i just stopped trying.. i dont even think its depression anymore, just a normal feeling when you truly see how stupid things are, how little you matter, and that nothing will ever "satisfy" you or make you feel differently, but i dont even say that in a feels/anger way. it just is what it is.

anyone know this feel? what is this?

Perhaps you will continue to live your life, and everything will be normal while your attention is occupied by study, work, TV, internet, etc. if you're lucky enough to have those distractions.

Soon you'll feel more alone than ever, you will feel empty, your life will start to seem meaningless, with no visible goals. You'll realize that you have separated yourself from society. You'll have lost your ability to enjoy company and laugh together with others; they'll seem different. You'll have lost your social skills and created mental barriers around yourself to stop people from getting close to you, you'll feel nervous or outright threatened when you are among people who fully enjoy themselves. Then comes the worst: when suddenly all these things become unbearable, all that natural need for social interaction and how much better it would be to have friends and how much you missed in your life until now. You'll realize that you need other people to live, but the other people will never need you.

Life is cruel and unfair. By the time you're even aware enough of a personal flaw to care or want to fix it, it's too late. It's always been too late. You were born without the raw abilities that others take for granted. And it is only this raw ability that translates into value in the real world. Sometimes, because of institutions like schools or colleges, humans can convince themselves that "you get what you put in" in life. But the truth is that unless some valuable shit was "put in" when you were born, you will not succeed.

All that you were supposed to build up until now, you didn't, and you have no foundation to build things you're supposed to build in this part of your life. You'll always be an outsider, shunned, ostracized, looked upon as a creepy friendless loser, that's just human nature and the tribal instinct. Now matter where you go and how you try to fit in, this will follow you.

And there is no way out.

Have you tried melatonin? I've been using it for around 6-7 years. I worked my way up, but I take 10mg instant release and 10mg time release every night. It becomes ineffective and does weird shit if you drink with it, though not too much if you're not shit faced before bed. All it does is make you sleepy, it's not a depressant. You can buy it almost anywhere, but the timed release is harder to find.

Buy Becomming a Supple Leopard, pay attention to form, stretch often and most importantly TAKE IT SLOW.

If you're doing deadlifts have add a warm-up series every 20kg starting at 70-80. Similarly add warmup-series to bench press and squats.

I'm 28, since I started stretching, paying attention to my form, started stretching, foam rolling etc I have less injuries than I had when I begining lifting when I was 24-25.

Worst thing I'm having now is a tweak somewhere in the ribcage in the back.

Anyone else dropped out of college multiple times?

I dropped out of university twice and community college twice. After that I just accepted my position in life and have basically been a professional Mexican. I just go in for the menial labor and turn off my brain. It's better that way. Smoking weed all the time helps. The sad thing is that I had a ton of AP credits and got a 2190 on the SATs and was definitely smart enough to do the work, I just couldn't handle the constant reminder of how abnormal I really am, and how lonely I really am and I couldn't deal with the constant anxiety of class or trying to make friends.

Well what are your hobbies then? What interests do you have? Go to such places.

I'm not assuming anything here, but you can't exactly feel entitled to meet interesting people if you dont have much to offer.

Also for what its worth, people tend to find one bar that works for them and they always go to that one bar. I go to mine twice a week and I still get to be friendly with the bartenders etc. I go once with a random friend to catch up and usually once for a quick coffee when I got shit to do around town and have a small break or whatever. That or live music on the weekends.

And even if you meet regular people, you can always show initiative and try organizing some kind of activity.

The gym and library are not places where you meet people.

Despite you having a great understanding of how the economy and society work today, and how unemployment plays into it does not really prevent you from getting a job so you can at least get some money and then some sort of agency and freedom to do things.

My point is, all the NEETs here are merely a symptom of a problem. And when they choose to dwell on their misery instead of educating themselves and figuring out what the problem is, and then organizing to find the solution, they might get more satisfaction out of their lives.

Hint, the problem starts with blurring the relationship between labor and fruits of labor(how many office rats actually produce anything).
And at the core it is economic exploitation in its classical sense.

And then there is the accompanying alienation from labor and from society. Shit sucks but in current capitalist economy it happens. It happened in deregulated capitalism, it happens now in corporate capitalism. The term wageslave is used wrongly on this board but upon inspection one sees the real statement behind that word.

And if you have health problems, you would most likely say that you want to participate in the common efforts in society, of course accounting for the state of your health. But you probably know your current situation more than I do.

You know the situation should be better. The question is, why it is not better?

The question why it is not better is the question why is the system made this way and how can we make a better system to organize the collective natural resources, means of production and the collective labor of all people for the best possible benefit of all people, ideally the same benefit of all people.

The few(ruling class, bourgeoisie, the 1%) benefit the most because they take what belongs to others and then codify it in law, and claim private ownership and enforce the private ownership with the threat of violence.

And to get the rest to comply with this, they haunt them with unemployment. Let's set it up so some poor suckers are miserable and serve as a warning for not being compliant.

That is my whole point.

Our socio-economic situation is a direct result of our socio-economic circumstances. To claim otherwise is to detract from the main culprit.
