I didn't have anything else to do when I was younger, so I just spent my time drawing and watching YouTube. I'm still doing that.

I haven't really tried to look for a job or get my ged.

I can't imagine a future where I have a stable income or a good social life, so I don't even try. I'd rather just shut my brain off and draw.

The only thing I really look foward to now is improving my art.

I finally cleaned up my room so I would have somewhere to put my walkpad.

No trash on the ground, my stuff is somewhat organized now.

Feels good.

I'm reminded of this every time my parents bring up parts of my childhood. The fun memories they talk about are when I was a toddler, that's it.

But they have all sorts of things to talk about when it comes to my older siblings. They bring up memories from middle school and high school with them.

And I have fucking nothing. I spent most of my childhood doing nothing but isolating myself in my room.

My parents just gave up on me.

My parents got another dog they can't take care of. This is the one of the few things motivating me to escape neetdom.

The dog has separation anxiety, he howls and barks endlessly when my parents leave. They're not doing anything to help him either.

He also barks at me and runs away from me. I've been trying to get him used to me. Lowering myself and being quiet, offering treats. He still doesn't want to be near me though.

They don't really walk him either, so our living room constantly smells like shit and piss. I try to clean up after him and mop, but the house always ends up dirty the next day anyways.

I just want to experience a clean and quiet house. I haven't had that since I was 10.

I'm tired of living with dogs and my irresponsible parents.

I've never really had friends growing up and I don't think that'll ever change.

I'm ugly and socially awkward, I don't see why anyone would want to talk to me tbh.

I want a good social life still, but I've mostly given up at this point. Staying home all day is easier and less painful than trying.

I've been kept up at night because of this fucking dog. He howls for hours on end when my parents leave for work.

Nothing helps either. He doesn't want treats or to be comforted.

I need a whole routine at night just to sleep. Close my door, turn on the ac, put on headphones and blast music. (AND HE STILL WAKES ME UP SOMETIMES)

And my mom gets mad at me for showing any annoyance. I'm expected to have endless patience for a dog that's constantly barking in my ear.

I hate being poor. I want out of here.

You can't use it as a place to vent now because of all the tourists coming there to gawk and laugh at vulnerable women.

And even this subreddit is becoming bigger. We can't have shit.

Just curious lol.

How do normies make friends so easily?? They only talked for a bit and they're already asking for each other's socials. Wth?

Is this what it's like to be an interesting and well adjusted person?

Gained back 20 pounds. Fml.

I was doing so well before too. I was on a calorie deficit and worked out almost everyday.

Now I don't have the motivation or energy to do anything. I try to do at home workouts, and I want to stop not even 5 minutes in. also I'm eating out of boredom again.

I hate adhd. Can't do shit unmedicated.

I've been trying to improve my art and programming skills so I can become an indie dev and escape neetdom.

My progress has been slow because I can't focus ​for shit, but I'm getting somewhere.

I just gotta hope that my laptop survives a few more years or I might be fucked. ​I can't afford a new one.

I can't even find people to relate to. I google my thoughts, and the only results that come up are "daddy issues." 😐

Having an absent relationship with my older brother changed how I view myself and relationships.

And changed the kind of relationships I want. The shit I mostly fantasize about now is meaner and older moids!!

I hate that a moid I barely talked to for the last 6 years infested my mind. I keep thinking about him, and it pisses me off.

I need a boyfriend that has older brother vibes to save me. It won't happen though, no guy will want an ugly graycel.

I feel like it's worse than them just being disappointed LMAO.

I heard my sister talking loud asf on the phone with my older brother one night, and they brought me up in the conversation.

She tells him I'm unemployed, and he genuinely sounds so surprised, like that wasn't even a possibility he could think of.

I don't know why he didn't expect this, though. A person that stays home 24/7 isn't just going to suddenly change the day they turn 18.

Embarrassing, honestly.

My neighborhood has a communal dumpster you have to walk to, and I hate it.

Lately, I haven't been taking out the trash because I feel nervous walking past my neighbors' homes and being seen.

I should be the one doing it because I just stay home while everyone else works, but I haven't been able to build up the courage to go by myself again.

My family doesn't like coming with me either. they just get annoyed when I ask.

I think the problem is that I'm too aware of my surroundings. Would wearing headphones and listening to loud music help??
