/hikki/ - NEET / Advice

22 since February. Too old if you ask me, but there's not much I can do about it so I just have to accept it

>>9424
also 22 since feb, whats up birthday buddy

19 and I don't know what I'm doing with my life

I cant remember if I posted in this thread before but I turned 25 this year, have been visiting this place since I'm 14 though. I was hikki NEET in my late teens to early 20s after a nervous breakdown sent me into not being able to leave my house. After my NEET years I started school again, dropped out because I became heavily psychotic and thought people are conspiring against me. I am now a corporate wageslave (IT), make decent money, have a boyfriend, about to move into my own appartment. I'm still heavily depressed, find it hard to go outside for anything other than work. No real alternative though.

No hope, No happy future, no nothing. Quite a sad existence that I lead.

I can relate. I'd like to be a wageslave tho. Especially in IT. Regardless of how obscure the future might seem, I think we can just keep moving forward. You seem to be doing good for what you said.
I don't know if I'm allowed to think in positive terms since I myself also hardly go outside for anything other than obligations, but… Well, at least it's not that bad now, isn't it?

What’s the image in your post from uboanon?

I used to think that I was unwell for being a loner that did not want to integrate into a larger society. Everyone else is thinking about capital, marriage and retirement, don't they? What kind of man does not strive for wealth and children? I will tell you what kind of man: the same kind that can see the illusions of this world for what they are.

Why do you people live for? Do you live for the sake of living, or do you seek something beyond our rotten world? Because those who live in order to live will perish, while those who want to reach for the stars will reach them! Everyone will see the suffering of the Earth at some point in their journey, and when they do they will either accept the world and seek its comfort or rebel against the world because it is wicked. You can see how all wars are unjust, all states are illegitimate and all rulers are robbers. Then why do you wish to live for the king and his kingdom when you can live for your own salvation? Leave the master alone to rule over his slaves, and seek comfort elsewhere.

They will call me mad for rejecting the world, but they cannot see that they are mad themselves. We are all broken by the world around us, nobody is left unscarred. Some will realize this, others will not. We live to be understood by our peers, but they can never understand us. There are no words that can fully convey what bothers the soul, and no one can peer into our minds to see our thoughts naked. That is why you are condemned to live and die on this Earth alone.

What am I going to do now? What are you going to do? I don't know, but we must seek our salvation independently. No two lives can be the same, as such no solutions can be either.

(also sorry for the schizopost lolo)

Looks like that Sims game made for a younger audience, MySims I think it was called. Played the shit out of it back in the day

nieztche is that you?

>How's your day going anon?
I recently unlocked my Playstation 3 with HEN. And I'm very depressed, it's totally unstable, the applications won't open forcing me to restart by unplugging it. And while I'm downloading games, XMD simply freezes, forcing me to do the same process as mentioned. It's horrible, I should have used CFW, they say it's better. Anyway, I feel like my PS3 is going to die a few weeks ago seeing its condition.

Sometimes it happens that HEN doesn't enable it either.

>When was the last time you went outside?
It's been 4 months. I just went out for a job interview.

>>8741
Which PS3 model do you have? The newer ones aren't capable of CFW unfortunately

>>8767
It's a PS3 Slim, I don't remember the date when I bought it, but it was over 10 years ago, it was around the time the Playstation 3 was released. It's horrible, it's very unstable, I think I should have formatted it before modifying it. it. It runs games normally, but it happens that it seems like it's going to break at any moment. I think it's because he's extremely old.

I chose HEN because they said it was the easiest way to unlock.

>>8780
You can check the model name on the back of your system. There's a little barcode with CECH right below it, numbers/letters after CECH specify your model name. There's a guide on YT that shows the models compatible with CFW
> It's horrible, it's very unstable, I think I should have formatted it before modifying it.
Cleaning up your console of stuff like PSN accounts and disabling certain online settings is a must for avoiding problems. It's recommended to follow a guide verbatim to avoid headaches later on
>I chose HEN because they said it was the easiest way to unlock.
Easy doesn't always mean good, especially in homebrew communities. PS3 jailbreaking is often very convoluted

It's nearly 2025, and there isn't a good active NEET board. Sad.
>>7224
I'm there with you. Each board has its own unique feel to it. Can't really main any of them though because they're not active enough. I only care about /so/ on Tohno.

are you the neet life magazine guy?

>>8549
nah, just a guy who used to post here. decided to revive my old blog from years ago as just something to do.

>>8550
oh ok, good that guy was annoying.

Bumping to shill my blog again

https://ineedhelp.home.blog/

You reminded me of my favorite NEET blog. I wish it was still updating.

if you want to shill your server once its made there's a designated shilling thread on >>>/ot/

I'd potentially be interested. It'd be nice to talk to people about common interests and other things besides the incel stuff. I hope you don't mind but I sent you a discord friend request just in case you decide to make one so I can keep informed.

>>8697
Thanks friend, maybe I'll check out the discords on there and see if I can find any people to talk to.

>>8701
agreed.
>>8703
no problem.

>>8696
hey i play magic on monday nights at vault games in cbd if you send me a photo of the tshirt you'll be wearing on the day i'll be able to spot you and we can play commander

try listening to music, and focus on that.

I hope it went okay if you've already gone. Calming ost from a favourite game/movue/show/whatever helps me when I go outside. Or a podcast or something, can help to have something else to focus on.
Take things slow and be kind to yourself as best you can

>>8698
How'd it go OP? Hope you're doing well.

heart emojis for all of u !
i didn't go because the teacher wasn't going to be in class for the rest of the week. i go in tomorrow on monday. i've had more time to think about it than i would've like to have. maybe i'm making this a bigger deal than what it is. a new kind of stress i'm experiencing maybe. the stress of responsibility that everyone feels. or maybe i'm not making a bigger deal than what this is because it is that big of a deal… i mean this is a pivotal moment that'll help me become a true person rather than the myth i am. i'm engulfed in this nervousness but maybe that will disappear when i'm there. some advice i've got was to pretend that it's a dream or to pretend that i'm invisible. i thought that would be a feeling to fight than to embrace. perhaps i'll try that.
sorry for the yap idk i'm like soooooo anxious but thank u three for the replies

>>8698
don't worry about the acne OP. that's entirely going to go away in a few weeks, what won't go away is the payoff from the efforts you're putting in right now to better yourself. do your best!! if you're still freaking out while outside tomorrow just remember to ground yourself and be as in the moment as you can. try just listening and observing whatever sounds are around you in the world outside to keep the thoughts at bay, and remember to keep yourself hydrated and as physically comfortable as you can be because you'll undoubtedly have a lot of mental stuff to deal with already. physical is more than half the battle ok!! I've been there, you get better at this stuff the more often you do it and you'll feel so proud that you did. if you don't, there's always the next time but don't think like that yet! you can do this!
also if you have trouble sleeping tonight just remember that it's better to at least lay around in bed to let your body rest even if you don't manage to get a lot of sleep. try to think positively and how cool it'll be to get the GED in the future! sincerely rooting for you anon

7 months lol, fuck off

Hope you get kicked off ssi you lazy degen(HIKINEET SITE (USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST))

>>7951
I like you anon, you seem wise. Newfag here, but was there ever a time before this board became overrun by holier-than-thou types and nahtzees? When it was just people who had become neet one way or another and were trying to get along?

if you say that i think you've just wasted your time judging boards through your bias when you could actually study psychiatry, psychology and sociology.

now, don't get me wrong. i agree that it is unhealthy and undeniably selfish to make others pay for your self destruction.

but mental disorders are EXACTLY that. having an undesired condition - often because you were raised by the wrong environmen - that makes you do bad things to yourself and others even if you don't want to.

it's like you're telling someone with pneumonia to breathe well just because YOU are perfectly healthy. of course, pneumonia is treatable and curable, hikkikomori is as well. but both take time, money, energy. it is not gonna happen instantly, no matter how much you yell at the sick to get better already. you're just verbally abusing them for something they literally can't do. in other words, you're being petty and irrational.

>>8688
well said

>>8575
I do haved some similar experiencies like that years ago. As someone with Asperger Syndrome, I just fall to the conclusion that being mute 99,9% of the time is my best option to not bother others or bother me, and just enjoying doing my things. May not be the most healthy thing, but whatever.

I'm pretty stoic and quiet. I'd rather not say anything than risk offending people or rubbing them up the wrong way.

>>8568
Sounds like a good memory. I would have liked to grow up in the rose coloured echo of it I'm imagining.

I never go a day without speaking a word, but I say absolutely as little as I can. A few one word answers and ritual nothings, and I hate even that. The solitude I'm given is already far more than I deserve though.

For some reason, people really don't like you if your quiet. It didn't feel so bad in the past but these days people seem to really hate you if your quiet and lonesome. They think you are bad person or a pervert. It seems to really disgust them.

My professor in college once told us about his time in rural China. He used to sit alone and eat because he was the only Westerner and his Chinese wasn't that good. When people saw this they'd go out of their way to sit with him because they felt bad. They'd try and talk in English even if they didn't understand it. In Western society, if a person is sat by themselves they usually get stigmatized. Makes you wonder what old world values we''ve lost.

I don't really like talking, but there's this thing that "people don't know what i want to communicate if i don't speak it"
I just like being in the vibe, yk. I don't like being questioned of what am i doing when it is clear as fuck what i'm doing
Even in VC's is the same thing, but most of the times i can go non-verbal and friends would go 'OK :)' and keep going
>>8598 You're so right and reading it it justs… hurts.
