Welcome to the NHK v2 aka The Rules Seisatsu ## Owner 02/04/16 (Thu) 22:47:24 No.172[Reply]

From now on, the >>>/rec/ board should generally be used for conversations about recovery from NEETism. This is not a hard rule but you are likely to have a better experience.

Seeing as absolutely everyone misread the /hikki/ rules sticky and used it to draw apocalyptic conclusions about the death of all that was good about /n/, here's a less flippant sticky with less room for ambiguity, in the form of a Q&A. We've also made some concessions based on your feedback in thread >>13, which was moved to /sugg/ for being meta.

What is allowed on this board? What is its purpose?
On this board you can discuss and request or give advice regarding NEETism, Hikikomoriism, anxieties and social or mental issues arising from these conditions of living, and things closely related to these topics. If you're content with being a NEET at this stage in your life, that's ok, and you won't get in trouble for saying so. The board's primary focus is self-help and advice regarding these issues. Despite rumors, threads looking for help with suicidal feelings or drug addition are also allowed.

What is not allowed on this board?
* Encouraging others to become NEET.
* Attacking or discouraging others for being NEET.
* Giving or requesting advice on how to enter the NEET lifestyle.
* Encouraging or showcasing drug usage.
* Announcing your planned suicide.
* Helping others to plan or commit suicide.
* Topics not related to the purpose of the board. Such topics will be moved.

Nothing wrong with being alone. Sometimes you gotta run with the mob but being alone means no one is gonna let you down. At the end of the day anyone else is just drag when you're running an elite NEET program. I feel sorry for everyone else I come across. Every single one has hangups and often they are total slaves. Being a NEET loner is hard work to keep on top of the loneliness and depression but more often than not its a kind of nexus.

not really since i recently started to talk to my neighbour, even made pizza with him yesterday and went on to watch a world cup game not that i was particularly interested in it but it was nice for the most part. however we went on to drink a bit of liquor and he started telling me how he kills pigeons at his work (hes a farm helper and tractor driver) for fun and has killed around 50 so far, he sneaks up to them with a shovel and hits them so they cant fly anymore then punches them until they're nothing but pulp and ditches them in cow shit, and went into a laughing fit for 10 minutes. idk man i started crying upon hearing it maybe im just a sensitive fagotini but atp i wouldn’t want it otherwise i think i will keep going back to being solitary as much as being alone hurts is it not better than to surround yourself with such beings?. how can one be so cruel? does he not feel for those beings? if he were killing those in order to cook them i would not mind but how can one kill for fun? maybe being in isolation was not too bad afterall even if it eats away at me would it really be better to integrate into such a society? are other people also like that? if i think back at my school days there were many who derived pleasure from the suffering of others i do not want to be like that.

You found out the truth: Most other people are not worth talking to. Why do you think alcohol has always been there for humanity? We cant all be moral and kind and clever can we? The greatest lie told by the jews is that all people are equal. White, black, yellow, brown; all supposed to be part of the human race. There is only the human race, that is White people. All the rest are sub-human. Your new chum is a hylic and it sounds like he is on the road to becomming a low level psychopath. Dont let him use you just because your lonely. Also dont try to understand others, learn to profile and predict behavior. No man knows another in the end.

I missed out on everything as a kid. I was always left alone by my peers which fucked me up of any social skills in the long run. I still have trouble holding a conversation. Have you guys had any trouble as a kid? This extreme isolation happened from 3rd to 8th grade which was enough to cripple me possibly my whole life. Or what is left of it anyway. Nearly 6 years of my life consisted of going home from school and back. Every day. Never talk with anyone, not even with family. Just me and my thoughts from a young age

I don't want to be like those other anons who just vent out shit here, so I'll ask the question, have you guys went through something similar that had a damaging effect on you? I still feel bits of loneliness from it.

pic unrelated FLCL just makes me feel like shit

Met up with her at the park today. She was with some other friends so I wandered off on my own for a while and looked at the animals. Eventually decided to walk home but then happened to see her sitting on the grass at a public bird calling event. Went and sat down beside her and she smiled. Made me feel a little better to just be with her and watch people having fun. Laughed a little. There were some costumes. They made us clap. Afterwards her friends came back then we went to a booth and she asked about the booth and then I told her I was going home. Walked by myself feeling sad and lonely, got some groceries and made two eggs in toast for lunch. I also got cookies.

Does anyone else feel like they've been NEETbrained for essentially all of their life? Even in elementary school, I could never see myself going to college, because I hated school too much (I have ADHD and autism), and when I was in middle school, my plan was to mooch off my family until they die (my family consisted of two people who could have taken care of me), then either:

1. Mooch off friends (I didn't want to do that because even I am capable of basic guilt, but seeing as my family brought me into this world and fucked me up, I felt like I was owed them taking care of me).I have no friends now. I don't leave the house unless to help my mom with groceries, which is a shame because today was actually the perfect weather to relax in it :( but I don't really have lawn chairs etc.
2. Go to jail/prison for the rest of my life. Considering the type of people who end up there, how guards treat you, and what actions would even have to lead me there, no.
3. Go to a mental hospital for the rest of my life. I have been in them before. After the adjustment period, they're actually really nice. I remember being in one of those blue gowns and looking at myself in the mirror and feeling like that was the only place for me.

So yeah. I don't relate to the common NEET's life that went something like:
>be me
>exists
>naturally develop career-based dreams
>go to college for them (outside of NEETs who dropped out of high school, but a lot seemed to go to college)
>fail college or graduate (I'm surprised (and impressed) by the amount of NEETs who went to college, even if they never graduated)
>somehow failed in the workforce, probably due to social awkwardness and not being able to social network or have coworkers like them, idk

My life was more like being overwhelmed with the idea of growing up since I was 11-12 and never being able to cope with the growing accountability, responsibility, and independence, which led me to become suicidal so I never really SERIOUSLY planned for the future. I mean I did plan for the mooching/jail/mental hospital thing, but I genuinely just expected (and hoped) to be dead before 18. Now that I'm out of school, I am not actively suicidal, but… empty? Like I want something that doesn't exist. Purpose, Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

Does anyone feel fundamentally different from other people?

Like there's an insurmountable wall separating you from everyone else that you won't ever be able to overcome. Even with all the riches and a perfect life on the surface there would still be distance.

Ever since I was a kid I was the "weird kid." At home I was an unwanted child. It really just feels like I'm not supposed to exist, but do anyway, as some glitch in the matrix. And all the forces in the universe are desperately trying to bug fix my existence.

I feel very little loyalty towards the world, humanity, or society.

It's more as if I understand that they have the capacity to sniff out intruders on the same limb that they enjoy in strangling outsiders with overwhelming indifference, so I play into my end of the bargain and steer clear of the tracks. I don't need to incapacitate myself with the writhing hivemind and their flesh-eaten orgies, and they don't feel noxious at the thought of being simpatico with me.

i've come to the absolutely miserable conclusion that i have a diaper fetish. best practice here would be to support my local businesses and take a trip to the hardware store. however, i may be getting commissioned to draw niche furry porn soon, and, on top of that, faggamer still hasn't restocked the poniko and uboa plush set. i need to complete my herculean tasks before i can pass on to the afterlife.

also, i feel like no matter what i do my art style just isn't cute enough to be erotic. it's very scratchy and pooner-esque which i don't really like, but i did this drawing of that really attractive bird from lorwyn eclipsed, and i feel like i've improved to at least some extent.

wow thank you so much for your kind words. i've actually been stressing a lot over the past week because i've had really bad art block and i've been worried about disappointing my commissioner. i got in touch with them today and they said not to worry so your encouragement on top of that has really helped :)

i've been dogsitting for a schizo hippie antivaxxer freak (i fucking hate dogs ;-;) for the past few weeks and i cannot wait to get home. this little inbred chihuahua dust mote thing shit all over himself and i think i'm gonna have to cut the poop out of his fur. the other dog is a retarded elderly husky who sheds all over the place like jesus h christ the floor here is MORE HAIR THAN FLOOR

also i brought a ygo deck set on a whim and one of the social workers that my cuck government pays to tolerate me so i don't hang myself used to play the game so hopefully i can get into that soon. i like the art style a lot more than mtjeet and there's apparently a few cool furry archetypes, so i'm pretty interested.

went to a seahorse sanctuary today and there was a cuddlefish, very cool animal. liked him more than the actual seahorses

commissioner turned out to be an egotistical piece of shit, as germans often are. kind of put me off drawing furries for a while. however the social worker brought me paint pens, so i've been doing lots of little paintings on magic cards. here are some of them. i started last week.

it's nice to be able to draw at a lower level of fidelity and not feel as though it's "my fault". i like having to use a limited palette, too, it reminds me a lot of doing pixel art but more fun because less autistic fuckery involved lol.

i brought 2 books yesterday; lolita, and the catcher in the rye. both apparently quite depressing but i just beat hotline miami 2 so i figure i can probably soldier on through anything at this point haha

also i have a wrinkle in time, a wind in the door, a swiftly tilting planet, and piranesi arriving soon, so i'm excited for those. madelene l'engle is one of my favorite authors ever.

i have no friends, online or otherwise
drawing is a slog, i'm totally uninspired
social media is cliquey and reactive

i really wish that there were some cool communities where i could meet people and make actual friends. my groomcord is libraryorb, on the off chance that some fellow degenerate wants it.

i don't know. literally everything i do feels like i'm throwing a punch underwater, online and offline. video games aren't really enjoyable.

here's a new shartwork i did. i don't like it.

i've been having dreams, about once every 6 months, about talking to a childhood and early teenage friend i had. i'm happier in those than i ever am in real life.

idk man
