Lifestyle Thoughts on NEETing

[Tabula Rasa]

I've always had a far sub-optimal neuro-chemistry to actually succeed in any social/professional/academic context. My neuroticism and social trauma has rendered me incapable of enjoying socializing and my shitty dopamine receptors/executive dysfunction has bestowed upon me an inability to do any kind of begrudging toil work.

In theory I can force myself to function in these kinds of environments and rely on backwater methods to help cope but those adjustments always seemed unreasonable to me and not worth the pain and effort of trying but eventually failing miserably. I think the prospect of NEETing offers a safety valve to disengage from society for those few individuals unable to conform within the system.

NEETing is not as easy as it sounds of course, and can be a conduit to amplify one's bad habits or worsen one's pre-existing circumstances, but there are stories of individuals who have absolutely thrived while being NEETs and their experiences serve as good models or guides for those who are currently NEET or aspiring NEETs to learn from.

 

[Forecast]

Depends on circumstance, if people rely on you finanically then work without a doubt, if not and you're a 30 year old autistic virgin who hasn't even kissed a girl yet then honestly I do not blame you wanting to NEET, especially if you can live off welfare comfortably.

 

[𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝕯𝖊𝖛𝖎𝖑]

I literally consider NEETing to be sacred.

Wageslavery is a soul trap. That's why most people are not spiritual. They are too busy to think about real spiritual things and all of their energy is depleted at their job

 

[VladislavDeGeso]

It’s based and objectively the most logical choice if you have the resources/your parents allow it

Unfortunately I don’t rn

I hope I can get benefits some day. I feel fucking sick all the time, stressed out and am quite the fucking autist. I honestly still have some aspiration to work but my career life is way to fucked and I doubt I'll be able to even handle a job.

 

[Naofumi]

It's a shameful existence my old friends would never let me live it down. I make barely any money off benefits too. Nothing I can point to and say it was all worth it in the end besides. But for me maybe it was destined as I never followed a traditional degree path kept exploring things all over the place.

NEET life is the most comfortable way to live as an ND

NEETing is not as easy as it sounds of course

The NT brain is not wired in a way that can enjoy the NEET lifestyle.

I meant that in the sense that some people's circumstances don't allow them to be NEET comfortably.

True, I live with my parents and they're chill with that since they know how mentally fucked I am. It only works out if you have an understanding family.

As to your situation, I wish it gets better. As to what you mean by backwater methods I assume you mean odd ways of keeping your hygiene and or physical environment kept.

When I started to neet it was not because I wanted to, but because I was living in a hostile environment and so to escape superficially I retreated into my room, did not wash, did not interact with others, and I completely shut down. The idea of being a neet is not half-bad of an idea, but what pushes people to that position is the trauma that was inflicted on them and or the current issues they are going through. Now if someone is able to live in that kind of circumstance where they have time and money to do it by all means.

However, being a neet comes at a cost depending on your circumstance, if you were traumatized, then you will definitely retreat to escape the constant emotional stress. While some will play the system and get money at the expense of the state or that you are reclusive in general then it helps either or.

I think you misread the paragraph, but I meant backwater methods to be able to function or succeed in social/professional/academic environments. The 'backwater methods' are things like relying on drugs, nepotism, coercion/bribery etc.

I misunderstood, which method's do you think would serve you best?

None, I'd rather NEET than rely on those methods.

Do you take moral issues with them and or find them hard to implement?

 

[Tabula Rasa]

Do you take moral issues with them and or find them hard to implement?

Both tbh

 

[Sovereign]

Both tbh

In that respect, how will you achieve resources or specific positions?

I'm already living off my parents

And is the environment satisfactory to your standards and or is it hostile to you?

 

[Tabula Rasa]

And is the environment satisfactory to your standards and or is it hostile to you?

It's adequate. Could be better.

 

[Sovereign]

It's adequate. Could be better.

Is there any way to make it better?

 

[Tabula Rasa]

Is there any way to make it better?

I need to tidy my living area.

 

[Sovereign]

I need to tidy my living area.

Is there anything you know you need to get rid of?

 

[Tabula Rasa]

Is there anything you know you need to get rid of?

No, it's just really messy and disorganized

 

[Sovereign]

Then you know what must be done. Do not hesitate, show no mercy.
