I'm just a parasite of my parents, currently no schizobux

Living the NEET life

Lay in bed.

neetbux.

i work at a movie theater cleaning up after the show

>>11170

I work in a warehouse. I sort things from an essentially random line into a system where they're sorted by delivery route and temperature, and laid out where drivers can find them.

The job didn't really exist until I decided it needed doing and started doing it properly. I got dumped onto it full-time formally after a blow-up with my manager about working weekends, and got set out there all the time in exchange for not working any more weekends on the regular.

And now I'm running a small department, and a formal part of the back end of the department as a whole.

> TFW people actually listen when I ask for things

> TFW I can hoard tools and supplies and nobody bats an eyelid

> TFW play music over portable speakers all day, nobody tells me to stop

> I've basically been told to flat-out steal equipment off the shop floor if I need it

The only real issues are that my feet hurt like crazy after a day's work, I have to get up way early, and I have to spend too much time in a freezer.

Oh, and that I'm not paid well enough.

I'm an part time escort, meaning that I only work when I really need the money. I am currently in debt, soon to be even further in debt in the next few weeks, and I have the courts on my ass for an unpaid fine. Meaning that I'm gonna have to do a ton of 'work' in the next few weeks or I'm fucked.

Aside from that, I just live the isolationist NEET life.

>>11249

Ayyy i knew someone would say that as soon as I posted

I work 20-30 hours a week at a grocery store staffed by high schoolers and middle aged people in a small town where people know my grandfather and the only reason I can handle the incredible amount of social contact is adderall, anti-anxiety meds, and weed for after work. Without them, I would be a speechless, nervous, unproductive, forgetful piece of shit.

I work at an animal shelter, basically as a kennel bitch and every tier below that.

I wouldn't call it a profession because there is little skill to it and it is a dead end job unless you fuck the boss. And even then, there isn't much you can be promoted to.

I'm on disability, they give me almost 1000€/month for being a worthless piece of shit.

>>12191

what diagnosis did you get and where do you live?

Cobol programmer. Bipolar ADHD.

>>12192

>>12192

Belgium. The diagnosis I first got autismbux for is social phobia + schizophrenia, but that has been changed to schizotypal pd now.

I merely clean cars

>>12201

Have you been in hospital?

>>12206

I spent 5 useless days in a psych ward (for observation, I wasn't psychotic or suicidal or something), then I did 2 years of out-patient therapy.

>>12207

you lucky bastard

im studying right now, have never worked so far

>>12207

> I did 2 years of out-patient therapy

so you are now not taking medicines any more?

what are you doing in your free time?

are you a female?

>>11245

Interesting. Have you ever taken the chance to take something from the depot?

If you feel you're not paid enough, you can take some crap useless crap and sell it on the interbutts. Worked for me once. Just don't overdo it

I design logos for small businesses.

Part time work on a contract basis.

i tutor middle school and high school students in math.

i don't get enough hours to really make a "living", and while sometimes i do enjoy my work i don't want to make education my profession because the only option is to get a teaching credential and become a teacher, and i would fucking hate that.

I am a freelance actor. It is honestly the best way to vent off my hate and sadness.

Just checking it out

I'm a student. I've dropped out twice already and I'm about to drop out again. Fucking episodes and negative symptoms. Once I'm on clozapine I hope I'll be able to finally finish Grade 12. Then it'll be physics in university. I'm actually a really good student, I get 85-95% on stuff now that I'm out of the enriched program. I just find it hard to consistently attend.

Wew lad, this all the way.

>Be me, 17, going into Uni

>In advanced study program at this Uni, got some decent scholarship money, this was undiagnosed bipolar btw so I managed to get into Uni with about 10k grant 20k gov loan, 1820 SAT, not a genius but just above average

>with proper meds might have done better but anyway get to Uni, bipolar gets a lot worse, turn to drugs and alcohol, works at first but then gets worse, have to drop out

>parents push me to go back to community Uni knowing nothing has changed, for sure mother is undiagnosed bipolar but its too late for her

>go to Uni, end up not attending most classes, doing bad again, therapy isn't helping because their system of getting meds to me (I should be on Latuda 20mg or so) isnt working

>weeks ago, was meant to get antipsychotic never got it

>dropped out again, decided to start painting again, parents pissed, blew 1500 refund money on drugs, food, canvas, paint, and sex

>about to move to shitty part of NY, might be homeless if shit hits the fan with parents, theyre at breaking point since I was family hopeful to become successful, two other brothers left Uni as well despite getting very far and moved back in, oldest bro brought wife with him, been leeching for years

>Im 19, 20k in debt, dropped out twice, not much hope, no motivation, no access to meds or good mental health doctor, homelessness awaits

>Well at least I have my paintings for now

The worst part is my cousin, who's this little girl about 6-8 (I don't keep track of my relatives' ages) looks up to me and I'm so far a failure. She lives in the country I'm from but I tried to kill myself on my visit there so now all my relatives know I'm troubled. My mom did lie and told them I'm already in university, but that just makes me feel like I'm living a false life. Most of all I just don't want that girl to find out. I'm not giving up yet though, and 50% is because of her.

>>12315

>Well at least I have my paintings for now

have ye read; panorama of hell

Living the NEETlife, sometimes wheeler-dealing washers for a profit and helping other people out.

(a uncle of a family member needed a washer for their son as his old one had worn bearings, a broken spider, worn shocks, you fucking name it)

Part-time uni student. Used to be full-time but I couldn't deal with that shit; hopefully I'll get a decent grade with a part-time one because I wouldn't have full-time. Currently looking for a part-time job (I have a decent amount saved up, I'm living at home and I'm a miser so I'm not in any rush).

>>12312

Sounds similar to me. Dropped out of uni and a pre-uni course and I barely made it through my first year (two resits and the rest never made it over 60%).

>>12565

How do you even get into that sort of thing? Forgery always sound like fun (might be Hollywood-esque in my imagination though).

>>12570

Sounds sweet. How does geography come into it?

>>12571

Law. I thought I would be able to deal with the talking aspects, but I simply can't talk in front of people, the rest of the work isn't difficult, just a lot of it.

>>12608

No, I'm too angry, or egoistical and I still got too much to lose. Who's going to watch after my dog? Financial crimes get you more jailtime than murder or rape in my country.

>>12607

>Public speaking tip; act laid back and assertive.

Yeah, nah, public speaking is just a no-no. I'd rather do the resit and not get a good mark. I care so little about it at this point.

>Are you in law school right now, or just uni?

Uni. Zero consideration on going into law afterwards. I just get nagged about getting a degree and a "proper job".

>>12613

Care to elaborate on how do you make identity fraud? Sounds like an easy way to make cashium

>>12611

Spurdoland. You get something like 2-4 years for manalaughter. A fucking kiosk owner got thrown in for longer after he dun gooffed with taxes.

>>12622

Lol, more like SEBIN (Venezuela's Gestapo, I live in this shithole)

I asked you because I have a lot of interest, in a couple of things:

An easy way to make cash when shit hits (even more so) the fan. An ace under my sleeve. I had thought before in smuggling gold, it's quite easy here, we have Guayana. But this sounds safer and I believe I don't lack the intelligence to do so.

More importantly, I am interested in people like you, with the skill to deceive, and the moral (superego) setup to stab society in the groin and make easy money. A friend of mine (one with a decent level of lying skill) told me about an uncle of his, an excelent liar, he could pose for a minister the way he dressed and acted. He would come to valet parkers and ask for a Mustang that was never there, yell for the manager, what an outrage! He would get my friend out of trouble when he fucked up at school. He'd cheat and fuck with any normie in the street when he was dressed up. Sadly he was an alcohol and a useless dreg most of the time.

He died an alcoholic and recently talked to my fella in a dream.

Part-time electrician, part time temp-to-perm warehouse bitch.

I work a max of four days, and usually about four or five hours a day. And not a minute goes by where I don't wish for death for being fucking incompetent.

Twenty hours a week for garbage pay and I can't fucking cope. If I was working 40 a week I'd throw myself under a truck. Not that it'd work.

I was studying Informatic Engineering for 2 years, but I grew to despise it as time went by. I dropped out in 2015, and the guilt and the feelings of "you made the mistake of your life, now you're thousands in debt", and among other shitty habbenings like grandparents I live with recriminating shit every waking hour weighed me down until I eventually broke down and ended up in a hospital from a suicide attempt. Was a NEET for the remainder of the year.

Recently found a job at a retail school/office/art supplies store to help me fund uni this year (Digital Animation. Yeah, yeah, I know. >Art). 48 hours a week, standing around all day, dealing with shitty customers and overall be a clumsy useless hobosexual. I get home exhausted, barely any energy to play vidya or talk with people online who wish I was dead and out of their lives.

At least the prospect of studying what I truly love keeps me going, but the road is made of nails and I am barefoot, and I could just trip anytime for an untimely death.

Push me so I can fall and finally end all of this.

Right now I'm a part time Speach path student and I work as a receptionist. Really I'm just meandering my way through life. I've been diagnosed with depression and BPD but I suspect I've got the autism as well.

No higher education yet, but I got my first and last (not doing this shit again) job as an illustrator for a pretty important book on biology by the biggest publisher in my country. I got it by chance with no one questioning my competence or asking to see any earlier illustrations of mine (there are none). They turned out bretty good! :D Getting lots of comments on how professional they look.

I'm getting 35 bucks an hour for it, which is pretty good I guess. When I can put that on my resume, I don't really need an education to get more work, so it's a good option to have if I once again am not accepted at the computer engineering studies I've applied to. (The only problem is that it's real work that takes actual effort, and I want to sit on my ass.) I'm applying with a government-approved special snowflake status this time (ADHD, bipolar), which increases my chances of getting accepted. I already know several programming languages, so apart from maths, it'll be a breeze. I got an A on the most advanced pre-uni maths subject, though, thanks to Ritalin, so I think I'll manage.

The best possible outcome would be if the concept album series I've been working on for years generated enough income to focus solely on starting an online business, write an app or something.

I'm lazy as holy hell, but if you just prioritize your time just a little bit, you can acquire the skills necessary to make a nice living in months that would take three to five years of higher education to learn. The mentally ill in particular often have undiscovered creative capabilities that people will pay good money for.

>tl;dr

I live in my parents' basement for now.

Software developer in the automotive industry. Schizophrenia

I'm probably going to drop out a second time soon, first EE, now chemistry. Everything went better this time but not good enough. It's really a shame. Major depressive disorder.

I used to work as a receptionist.

Shitty job because you have to smile at people all day and pretend to be a nice happy guy who likes to work hard when you actually feel like shit and don't want to take shit from any of the bosses or backstabbing coworkers.

In fact, I think I am too depressed to work at any job where I am being told what to do.

>>12607

You know, you actually sound like a really cool guy.

I don't have a job. I have a couple of sugar daddies and I'm taking a few evening classes at my local college.

>>12770

> I have a couple of sugar daddies

you mean parents?

>>12779

No, rich men give me money for going on dates with them, giving them company, letting them fuck me in the arse etc.

>>12786

i have completely no experience with that matter, but is not it that males just want to fuck and from male point of view dates are redundant? what do you do at dates?

> giving them company

i suppose it is not about companionship but about social status

>, letting them fuck me in the arse etc.

is your pussy so loose (worn out) that males preffer anal sex? sorry for very personal questions xd

>>12788

Nah, the guys are pretty lonely, so they really want some company. They're the type of guys who focused so hard on their career that they never had time for socializing with others.

I'm a guy btw.

>>12789

ebin XD also where are you living? some tolerant country i guess

>>12791

Denmark
