Hi guys,
Until last month I was employed for four years. I just used to have a job at a Pizza place as a driver but due to obvious events that place closed down and I remained unemployed for four years until I got a job at Burger King last month.
What did you do with your time those four years?
A lot of browsing the internet, sites like 4chan, Reddit, Discord, Instagram, DeviantArt, Newgrounds, Fandom, MAL, TikTok, StarBound Forums and KiwiFarms. Playing games such as Halo, GTA, Minecraft, StarBound, Civilization, Doom. I did a lot of weed, hanging out with friends, couch surfing, lean, night clubs, odd jobs, psychedelics like magic mushrooms and LSD, sleeping at hotels, going to bars, sex, seeing family, went on holiday to Hawaii once, cocaine, listening to music, making YouTube videos and I tried programming at one point.
Is StarBound Earthbound?

How did you keep yourself together?
What do you mean by that?
Like mentally? Being NEET is exhausting socially in a way
Smoking weed and watching movies made me feel great although it’s not a permanent solution. I have amazing friends and brothers/sisters who where always there for me.
Can you explain NEET and what it meant to you
The term ‘NEET’ was created by the British government surprisingly enough and was later adopted by 4Chan. As I said in the post NEET stands for “Not (in) Employment, Education or Training”. NEET to me was a subculture and a lifestyle. I don’t have anything else going for me and there wasn’t any opportunities anyway so it just made sense to become a NEET. I didn’t have any motivation for a long time but recently I have given all of my attention to this guy I’m in love with so I can be a better partner. I got a job to make some money and I’m going to the gym to make myself look sexier for him. A big part of motivation is having someone to work for and until him I didn’t have that. He’s the only thing in my worth working for.
Congrats on turning things around! It sounds like you’re putting a lot of effort into this, he must be a really great guy.
Thanks, he really is
