Finally escaping being a Hikikamori NEET. Got a job at a cafe!
I haven't left my room in months but finally had the courage this week to apply to jobs it almost killed me but I got a job 40 hours a week and its a social job hopefully this will help me escape being a neet. Learning to code on the side as well we're all gonna make it boyos No more rotting
looksmax.org
Its been 3 weeks since getting my job pretty much working 40 hour weeks.
Before getting this job I had agoraphobia and could barely leave my room to go to the gym let alone say more then a few words to people besides my parents. Everyday my condition got worse I would use porn to cope with the stress from this. Now my stress tolerance is way higher my job isn't extremely social but I am still talking to people for like 3 hours out of my shift usually and I constantly have to see people.
At first I felt like I was having a panic attack but management was very kind and always told me I did a good job. I even met a few coworkers with similar interests one of my coworks is into coding and said when I get better we can do a CS project. This is probably the best job I've ever worked at my old jobs everyone was burnt out 30 year old losers/drug addicts. This job is mainly college/HS students so I relate because everyone is either in their teens or early 20's. Also its 60% female still not completely comfortable around girls but the thought of talking to one no longer makes me want to die.
Honestly wish I had applied sooner. Being a neet is not sustainable unless your parents are ultra rich and will give you a 3 grand+ allowance. Only people with extreme physical or mental issues should ever consider this in the long run your world just shrinks. Hiding away never gets rid of anxiety it just closes the world off until even stepping outside your room gives you anxiety. The human body can only adapt it does not sustain if you close the world off even the most tiny stressers like basic small talk become the worst thing in the world its all relative.
Conclusion: I still don't feel better yet but every week I feel myself getting less anxious around people. Things like going to the gym don't produce any anxiety. The voices in my head telling me everyone is looking at me and judging me have also reduced. I realize now hiding away has only made things worse so I will do the exact opposite and see how that turns out.
