Ex-NEET/Hiki general thread, how long has it been since you got out of it? What are you working on right now? Do you feel like going back to that life sometimes?
I got a job and started going outside 6 years ago, after 2 years of being isolated completely, sometimes I feel tempted of just staying at home playing videogames all day, or to stay in bed doing absolutely nothing, I am still depressed, recently something bad happened, and I felt the need of going back to those habits, close my social media and be a full time anon again.
An important part of my recovery was the people around me, and volunteering at hospitals and hostels for the bed, working still feels kind of weird though.
Now I work as a programmer and web designer, not the best job for someone like me, but it's what I learned to do.
It's hard, but like an anon told me here, if I got out of that mentality once, I can do it again, and so can you.

>>26I guess you're the biggest joke here since you actually waste your time doing the same thing the people you despise do while being condescending about it.
If you don't like the board, don't post.

Well let's try to be polite to one another, despite the bumps this is a good thread, and I feel like I needed this board.
It's interesting to see a group of people who lived isolated come to different conclusions and to open up, I never talked about these specific things to anyone.
Another thing that happened to me when I started working is that I moved my hiki habits and depression to the workplace, I was a very shitty worker, procrascinated a lot, needing the money made me snap out of it, or rather, force myself to.
I don't know if this was unhealthy or not, but soon enough, I stopped feeling like it was forced, and started working normally.

Not while I'm around on your dead site you faggots. If you could get a job you'd have one. Advice is for shit. Opportunities are what would get someone non-hiki.
