what lead you to be a NEET anon?

was it lack of self respect? lack of love? disabilities? genuine bad luck?

why do you live like this

>>81672315 (OP)
>genuine bad luck
bald extremely early while also being short -> 0 point in trying for the regular life (plus getting heavily into games while getting out of highschool didn't help)

im too scared to apply for jobs, and the longer i go without one the harder it is to get one

sigh, never ending cycle

>>81672315 (OP)
>why do you live like this
Dont want to, dont have a choice. I cant work because Im autistic, but not autistic enough to get good neetbux

>>81672315 (OP)
I quit wageslaving construction at 32 after 14 years when most of the guys I grew up died already. It just really sank in society is a massive scam and it's pointless to slave away so rich people live more comfortably. Why bother working another 30 years for nothing? I just live poor and minimalist and I'm way happier and more at peace. They brain wash you kids to think you're all going to be millionaires eventually when most of you won't even live to retire. You're not going to be the exception if you weren't born into a rich family you're fucked no matter what you do.

>>81672453
>you kids
Lmao Im 26, I dont think Im gonna be a millionaire but I like to have a salary that allows me to buy what I like

im trying so fucking hard to get a job but no where is fucking hiring

>>81672476
You'll get tired of buying toys by 30. I had cars, trucks, motorcycles, video games, pets, gfs, apartments then a house, moved states etc eventually you'll realize none of the junk you buy and work for actually makes you feel any better and nothing feels better than not having to put up with retards scumbags every day for a shitty paycheck. You could offer me 500k a year and I still tell you to go fuck yourself. You'll understand eventually kid. Neets were right all along the ones that never had to work just don't know it because they have no experience to compare to.

>>81672476
You know the problem with people between the ages of 23-28? They think theyre grown, they literally think they know everything, even if they dont mean it in a condesending way

You are basically a teenager with adult money and adult rights now, you're not grown

Youll realise it soon and think what an fucking idiot you were

>>81672523
>>81672546
Im literally an adult lmao

I never claimed to know everything but I know a decent amount to get me through, idk where this idea that 26 isnt an adult came from

Never been a neet, never want to be a neet, never will be one.

Ill scrub toilets before i become a leech

>>81672567
Keep licking those boots "manly man" you make daddy proud some day kek.

ehhh i dont like the thought of waking up early and theres no night shifts by me

im extremely frugal though so i can get by with like hardly any money

>>81672315 (OP)
The question should be flipped on it's head. What lead you to get a job? Are you stupid? Do you hate yourself? Do you like being abused and wasting your time?
Employment is a post industrial revolution deviation from the tradition of chilling and doing what you feel like when you feel like it.

>>81672315 (OP)
Being a pariah as a child and a lack of understanding from my parents led to no self respect, then I got diagnosed with autism at 13. My parents are looking to get me on bux now but I doubt I'll be approved even after getting a lawyer involved (I'm American)

>>81672315 (OP)
My health is bad, I've got sleep apnea and I'm not overweight.

>>81672315 (OP)
Cognitive disability. I can't keep more than a few things straight in my head at once, so learning anything is impossible.

Got diagnosed with autism at age 33 and have been collecting autismbux since (am 36 now). Being diagnosed has opened my eyes on a lot of the reasons why that I struggled with life.

And also this. The game is rigged, they dangle a carrot over your head saying that working hard and buying shit will make you happy but in the end it just keeps the elite class on top while you just work yourself to death. This can be said about any work environment where there is a hierarchy, people at the top telling others to just work hard while keeping them at the bottom. Throw in some drugs and alcohol to keep the workers numb and dumb about it.

If we could go back to the covid days where we got even more government money and it was illegal to go out and talk to people I'd be totally happy.

>>81672315 (OP)
was too honest on resumes, should have spent a week to practice lying for the interviews

>>81672453
I also live frugally and I could probably live off of even less but even then you need SOME money. How do you do it anon? Disability? Freelance stuff?
>>81674024
How bad is your autism? My autism's been screwing me over at my job lately but I doubt it's bad enough for neetbuxx

>>81672315 (OP)
All of the above. I need to wage slave soon to fix my teeth which will be brutal.

>>81674091
I got assessed and dianosed with mild autism, had that with my doctors note to get disability assistance. I've still bee able to work but in hindsight it has definitely hindered me in a lot of ways.

The reason why I decided to get assessed was because my therapist felt that I was on the spectrum. Before seeing him I was drinking a lot. Am over 2 years dry now.

>>81674200
mild autism/aspergers sorry

>>81674200
What convinced them that you needed disability? What was your work history like before this? Me personally I have never kept a job for a year and the only jobs I get are super desperate places that barely even interviewed me. I can put up a front to get in but eventually I start fucking up and leaving on a bad note

>>81672315 (OP)
I just dont care enough to participate in society one way or another. If it wasnt for my family I would go off somewhere into the wilderness and maybe live in a cave or something.

>>81674798
Probably live in a homeless shelter friend.

>>81674709
Other than my alcoholism I also have a past of anxiety and depression. I have also been in a psych ward twice.

During my assessment they interviewed my mom also which she echoed my statements.

>>81674920
Nope. I would go into the wilderness. Yes I will likely die but it will be as nature intended. Most of us should never have been born or should have been culled at a young age. Its the concrete and the insolation that kept us from experiencing what all other beasts on this earth experience. Keep coping.

>>81672315 (OP)
I can't function in the real world. I literally just can't. I failed miserably at school, I failed miserably at work, all I ever do is fail. Giving up was not a choice for me. It was the only path forward. I'm legitimately just THAT retarded.

>>81672315 (OP)
I lost a lot of faith in a lot things. I'm still looking for some value in life. It's not like I can't do things. But I can't imagine happiness or purpose. I suppose I'm in a sort of crippling existential crisis. Cliche isn't it

>>81672315 (OP)
Just laziness. I can't be bothered with actually being productive.

path of least resistance, honestly. i am lucky to be in the situation where i can indeed just fuck around and do very little to actually keep a roof over my head.

im not really sure why. i know if i had an actual desire, genuine interest in learning something new or useful, no matter how irreverent, my folks would fund it. if i demonstrated a genuine interest in learning to drift japanese cars, theyd probably buy me an appropriate car and just give it to me. IF....i showed actual interest. thing is, i havent found anything that i actually want to do, so i just dont ask.

>>81672315 (OP)
I havent been a neet for 7 fucking years you double nigger, as to an actual answer to your question my father died when i was like 10 so my mother invested all her energy into her two other childern because she saw my autistic ass as a lost cause and didnt even atept to do anything beyond provide enough food for me so i didnt die and get her in trouble with the law. Pretty much ambivalence from every elder form of family.

tl;dr normalfags will abandon their autistic children first and then leave them to rot so i rotted for a few years

also neets are the product of people who imature and dont understand what responsabilities creating a life intails

>what lead you to be a NEET anon?
>why do you live like this
I don't want to be bothered by this world or its priorities.

>>81672315 (OP)
obsession with
>a highly idealized spiritual goals (finding universal truth, defeating the elites, things like that)
>being obsessed with my autogynephilia and worrying about not hitting the wall at 30

the tight deadline of making it pre 30 or much earlier than that coupled with my idealism destroyed my chances of making it in my 20s. right now im trying to give the agp less importance and i dont know, im still idealistic.

>>81672315 (OP)
profound schizoid position

>>81672453
Based.
Everything you said is absolutely true but most will never realize it. Some may even try to fight you because they are so invested in the lies that they have been sold since a young age.

Minimalism and taking it easy is the best way out. You can't change the world or other people, you can never fix the way things are, but you can make sure that your own life is different and more like what you want it to be.

>what lead you to be a NEET anon?
Missed my last 18 months of schooling, hated school anyway, and was pretty much always socially rejected.
I got used to being on my own and somewhat enjoy it. Also had five years under threat from a gang of brothers from age 18-23.
>was it lack of self respect? lack of love? disabilities? genuine bad luck?
Turns out that I was an undiagnosed autist all along, so I was never going to be the type to 'put myself out there'.
The changing economy to being very autist-unfriendly after 2008 meant I was doomed all along. Service job hell is not me.
I never knew what I wanted to do, outside of a vague notion of back office work and being successful, because I used to be smart.
>why do you live like this
No other way to live. I enjoy having free time. I just wish I could have sex with a woman on a regular basis.
I finally wage-cucked for a year at the end of my 20s and it exposed me as an unemployable autist, so I feel much better about staying NEET.
