Discussion I don't understand how some of you are comfortable being NEET?

[Deleted member 3342]

I was NEET on and off for some months (I am almost 22 now) and during that period I became increasingly more depressed as time went on.

My routine was to wake up at around 4pm, eat, Youtube and then hit the gym at 1-3am, return home, eat again and more youtube. I had zero social life and my mental state got increasingly worse.

How do you guys not have the desire/drive to make a good income? me personally, a lot of my drive comes from jealousy, I hate seeing people have things I don't have, like a girlfriend or a nice car. I always work overtime when available and I'm always looking to make more money.

Obviously, my parents would be very upset with me if I stayed a NEET but besides that, I personally couldn't be one without feeling like a loser.

 

[iDONTwannaBeME]

We are not. Those who say that neetism is based or whatever are just coping and larping to look cool.

If you are a rich neet then yes it could be fun, but 99.9% are NEET and survive thanks to their parents. And some do have the desire to have money but they are not NT enough to make it so they are screwed.

So they're all larping? idk, some told me they love it.

I have a part time jobs like carrying goods and cleaning gardens cutting herbs mixing sement
But im a neet at heart
I ldar the rest of the day and piss in bottles and collect them
I jerk off in plastic bags and throw them are the room
Government dont give me money and parents dont give me enough to live comfortably

I'd go as far to say that it would be biologically insensible to not care about those things

Socializing yeah, but most of those people socialize online with people they actually like instead of whoever is around. But modern materialism is just a result of society structures and social conditioning.

Having a lot of resources means you ensure the survival of offspring, that sort of evolutionary reasoning still exists.

Then you would get oxytocin from holding money like you hold your children. It's just a piece of paper

Expect that was only a thing when society and settlement started forming, before you would do things communally and share most everything. Even the nuclear family wasn’t a thing back then either

as apes such as us did for as long as they had existed until a very very recent time ago

 

[Deleted member 3220]

I just think you have the wrong way of looking at it. Humans simply are social animals. That means the housing and food you are getting is basically out of good will from other members of your same species. Even animals across different species help each other. Money is just a object with zero actual value in itself meant to systematize this benevolent exchange

This is the sole reason why we must die as NEETs, having a girlfriend is impossible in our timeline.

The difficulty of getting a girlfriend depends on your neurotypicality and genetics

It's true. I'd rather not work and not care for money. I don't inherently care about designer clothes and whatnot.

I've been socially isolated and have been a target of bullying in my life. Without money, I'd remain a nobody and I can't live life to the maximum. I want a nice car, I want people to look at it, i want social validation, I want girls to want me. That's all it's for after all.

 

[RedditHate]

neurotypicality and genetics

And also, it depends on the increasing standards of foids.

If you are ugly, even with money you`d remain a nobody; but with gay orbiters

 

[Deleted member 3342]

Well, I'm not ugly first off, but even then it's not about having people like you, it's about having things that they want. Normies will recognise you having more wealth than them, that's some level of leverage, no matter how ugly you are. How many ugly celebs are there out there that have status? loads.

Hypothetically speaking, if people see my supercar, they know I'm living a better life than them. Instant respect follows through. It's not something that I'd chase, I wouldn't care too much about what normies think, but it's a nice byproduct of having wealth. Having wealth and some status as an incel would give you some certainty that you didn't leave this world a complete fuck up.

i did manual labor for 3 hours

[Zangano1]

Im mot a neet

 

[(やみ)]

I'm not a neet so I can't say from experience but I believe people just feel comfortable to be in the position they are. Changing needs too much energy, it's simply easier to remain where you are.

Also, if you become used to a pattern anything alien to it will feel weird. To exemplify, talking to people and being able to mantain relationships with them feel weird, impossible honestly.

Though you see too much of a normalfag to me, specially with this affection to money. Do you like society and want to belong to it? For me, the point of being "NEET" is to dislike society and a feeling don't belonging and not desiring to do so. People who aren't like that are simply unemployed.

 

[glitch]

you are still depressed though, just distracted more

 

[Deleted member 3342]

oh no no. I am very socially maladjusted and have a very difficult time socialising with people. All my sexual encounters with women have been purely transactional (escortcel) and I have never had any girls be seriously into me. I could go on and on about my problems but I am most certainly not a "normalfag"

I already explained the reasons for my affection for money. I want a nice car, nice place to live etc not only for the materialistic pleasure, but to give myself certainty that I didn't leave this world a complete fuckup. I want to above normies, I want them to feel jealous of me. My negative experiences in life has pretty much conditioned me to be somewhat narcy.

 

[Deleted member 3342]

Really agree on this, only if I had the ability and motivation to.

 

[Deleted member 3342]

It's not about motivation I think. It's about assessing the alternative.

You will either end up as a middle aged man with nothing to show for, no money, likely no wife and kids, alone and rotting.

Or at the very least, have wealth to your name. Have money so that you actually live comfortably. Not being a total fuck up.

 

[frightfulcel]

I've been a full on neet for 4 years now and I wouldn't reccomend it to anyone unless they have a neet type personality which is rare. You need something to do all day and validation from society in some way. Humans aren't mean to rot all day.

 

[Enju]

I mean the alternative (for me at least) is much worse. The idea of getting up early in the morning, to go to a place i dont want to be for 40+ hours a week, with people i dont want to be around, sounds horrible. Getting up early to go to school years ago gave me terrible head pain that i’d get sick from.

I also have no motivation to go wageslave. What am I working for? Im not materialistic, all my copes are free, i depend on my parents for food and such. I understand late game NEETing is unsustainable without financial dependence, but it’s something im willing to wait out and see what happens

I’d also like to agree with @iDONTwannaBeME. A lot of us dont choose this lifestyle. It’s a result of neurodivergence and/or bullying in developmental years. Shutting ourselves away is a cope.

 

[Deleted member 3342]

I don't see what you're going to expect.

You WILL be forced into work. You know it's not sustainable.

there may be other family members that will take me in. hopefully by then I'll have the courage to rope though

 

[Deleted member 3342]

I'll have the courage to rope though

heard this a million times

"if it don't work out i'll just rope"

lol no you won't,. you are going to be wageslaving, living the life you were running away from your entire life. The only difference? you'll be in an even worse position, behind everyone else, wishing you started earlier.

Behind everyone else in what? Betabuxxing a roastie that doesnt love me? You’re right, if i dont have anyone else to depend on for NEETing, ill have no choice to work. Hence why i said “hopefully”

 

[Deleted member 3342]

ill have no choice to work

Exactly. You will be behind in finances, you will NEVER retire. No pension, nothing.

You don't have to get married, nobody mentioned marriage hare. I'm telling you now, being a NEET is the worst decision you will ever make in your life. I was once a NEET too, I'm glad I snapped out of it.

I figured you were alluding to retirement. But like i said, this wasn’t a choice for a lot of us. If i could live the normie life, i would. Im too socially inept. Maybe ill try work from home eventually. I also have 0 motivation

I'm also very socially inept. I just can't remain broke forever, just gotta "man up"

I only need enough money to live a sustainable peaceful life with minimal interaction from society. Idc about societal validation.

I don’t know, I’ve been doing this for 12-13 years now and never really had much of a problem with it. Sure, I’ll get the depressive dips and not do anything for several weeks or even a month, just straight LDAR at times, but eventually, I bounce back. Most of that stems from my own laziness, so I’ll take responsibility for it and leave it at that.

There’s a big epidemic where people become victims of their own heads, and it’s often severely amplified whether you admit it or not due to catastrophic thinking patterns that are very easy to get stuck in. Untreated depression and dysregulation of the nervous system can also worsen stress responses and negative thought patterns. I had a hard time getting this down pat for a while, so a lot of these posts are highly relatable to me and how I used to think.

Some of you are even halfway through that breakthrough point of not really giving a fuck, but you’re still held back. Honestly, for some of you younger dudes, it’s more of an age thing. Most older NEETs here are just too burned out to care or aren’t so in tune with their emotions and headspace defining them.

I told everything to fuck off, made my dough, balled out, and I still get the depressive crashes, but I refuse to mope about them if I’m not going to do anything about my issues for that period of time. I know some of you didn’t choose this life, but things can be a hell of a lot worse, believe me.

 

[Deleted member 3342]

so you have money? in that case, this wouldn't apply to you.

I'm talking about most NEETs who are relying on welfare or family to survive.

You're literally in an ideal situation lol

It wasn’t always like that for me though. I didn’t even get NEETbux for a long ass period of time, and I still don’t. Even with my own money and traveling all over the place, it doesn’t correct the main problem most NEETs carry. I had, and still semi sit on, the same side of the issues that pertain here, but it doesn’t have to be all doom and gloom. All I’m saying is that if you continue to be a victim to these things, they will forever run you mentally.
