Wish I was a NEET tbh

I have a friend who is a NEET. I don't get how he does it. He has been doing the same stuff for at least the past 5 years. He had a job once but he says he hated it so much he's worried if he actually had to work he might kill himself instead.
 
Not in Employment, Education or Training - basically basement dwelling losers that have problems with their lives.

OP, you don't want to be one, trust me. I stared at the abyss and i was one step away to literally becoming one. Just no.
Yep, that's like one step away from suicide.

Fuck that.

Now that I think about it, NEETing really isn't as cool as I thought it to be. Got a solid severance package in 2018 and didn't work until the end of 2019, was great as long as I had cash. When the cash ran out I went back to work and by god, is it hard to get back in. Never again.

I got into a bad accident and ended up living that NEET lifestyle for a year. I was stuck in a wheel chair and was on oxycodone every day lol. All I did was play video games all day, got super good at COD. Those were good times lol.

Yeah that's the Oxy talking 😉
 
What the fuck is a neet?

Pretty sure this was already answered, but it's an acronym that stands for,

Not in Employment, Education, or Training. Not knowing this either means you're such a normie that it's surprising you are on a web forum, or that despite being a massive nerd you are impressively ignorant about about modern society, nerd culture, and the entire nation of Japan.

I actually built up resistance to opiates pretty quick so it was just for pain mitigation. Plus some of the side effects are pretty unpleasant. Interestingly enough, my doctor was very liberal with my prescription. I asked him how much I could take in a day and he said as much as felt I needed lol.

Or maybe I'm of a belief if you use a. Acronym you define it during the first use.

The day I finally win the lottery I'll make being neet my career.

Fuck employment, I have too many projects to work on, too many books to read, to many mountain hikes to do, too many games to play, too much of everything I want to do, and too little time for my family to find any value in employment.

It's one of life's necessary evils. I was just a stay at home dad for almost a year, and my god going back to work blows.

I was a NEET for about a year before. Honestly it gets real boring real fast.

The only people who have time to be bored are boring people. Get a hobby.
 
My actual desire to commit suicide without apprehension or fear of the unknown skyrockets exponentially if I do not have a job, am not learning something useful on a regular basis, or doing some kind of training whether it be to improve my snap jab, train and sit with correct posture or even taking a shot at learning Sanskrit.

The desire is numb in terms of intensity, but if I am doing something to broaden my capabilities even of they are tied to something that is rarely useful renders suicidal desires to almost a zero level.

I had times when I wasn't working for months and watching long ass animes (Naruto, Fairy Tail etc.) all the time and gaming. It's fun but after some time it fucks you up. Now i have job, girlfriend, female friend that is attracted to me and women I work with that pretty much is like my girlfriend in the workplace (people think we are together). Plus there is still time to play games so fuck beeing NEET. This life is much better.
