Does anyone want ctb just to not have to work?

[TheSomebody]

One of my main reasons for CTB is because I don't want to have to face the long and arduous path of life to be happy and because I think it is not worth it.

Right now I have absolutely nothing. I am 24 years old and I am a NEET. I never worked in life, I have no experiences. I also didn't finish my college. A company would never call someone like me.
In addition to being a financial failure and living with my parents, I am also a complete social failure. I have no friends, I have no charisma, I have no ability to stand out and on top of that I am so ashamed and disgusted with myself that it prevents me from having any kind of intimate relationships.
I have so many problems, that even if I got a good job I would still have to deal with a multitude of other problems. Money is far from guaranteeing me happiness. So why sacrifice so much if the road is hard and the chances of success are so low?
It would be much easier and logical if I just went back to the Void I came from, after all, death is inevitable anyway.

I'm exactly the same as you, even the same age. I can't seem to forge a healthy relationship to jobs and working. Something seems to have gone very wrong, though I can't say what exactly. I wish I could just have a 'normal' mind that doesn't have issues with work, and while I cant and wouldn't want to rule that out as totally impossible, it's been years and years, and my mind is still the same. Really just want to leave to avoid further shame, embarrassment, and pain.

 

[Loser47]

Same man, I just feel life is not worth the effort.
I'm 24 and I work but I hate it. My main reason for CTB is work. My life would still suck without work, but I can be depressed hate myself and rot in bed without having to work.
Spending 10 hours a day, 5 days a week all your life, fuck this bullshit. I can't do it.

Having to work to keep the life going which I already hate, lol

This is one of my many reasons. I don't want to be a wage slave for the rest of my life. Why the hell should I suffer and work just to survive a life that I didn't ask for? A life I don't even want?!

I left school at 16, I stayed at home for a year because I didn't want to work. What's the point in doing anything if we're going to die anyway? I was forced to go to college against my will, things got worse after that and I found myself on here in 2018. After three years of doing nothing, I was forced to work last year. I hate it so much.

I'm sure everyone will think I'm stupid after I'm gone. It costs little to no money for CTB but hundreds of thousands of pounds to survive and live decently So, tell me, who's really the stupid person?

I was simply forced to come to this hellhole and now I have to work hard to keep my stay here ?? And when you refuse to work and study, society completely demonize you for that, as if you've asked for all this.

I think of life as a bloody race where people are forced to participate. If such a race existed, no one would judge a person for not dedicating themselves to that race, because they would recognize that person didn't ask to be there and the rules are brutal.

So why do people judge you when you don't dedicate to life?

#Relatable. My mum, who hasn't had a job in over 40 years, tried to give me advice about "work life" and "you should print off your CV and take it into offices" (after forcing me to turn down 3 well-paid jobs just to go to uni - so she could lie and tell people that she was paying for it - when really it was government funded). Then I finished uni, and guess what? everyone else took the jobs that I had been offered, whilst I was stuck for 3 years doing a degree course, that was completely pointless anyway.

Just do what's best for you @sadgirl2002 don't bother listening to anyone who hasn't walked in your shoes

 

[WornOutLife]

Yes, my lack of interest for working was one of my reasons to ctb.
However, I like money so in order to get it I had no choice but to work.

The key to not hate work at least, is to find something you like. For example, teaching is my passion. I don't feel like I'm working and money just comes to me! Also, I sell my lessons on a website and get paid every day without moving from my gaming chair.

You just gotta find some job in which you don't feel a slave and at least that, will not be a reason to ctb anymore.

Anyway, that worked for me.

Hugs

I honestly don't understand any of this madness people call life, I don't want anything to do with it. I agree, you're right about life being a race and in addition, it's exactly like the survival of the fittest.

That's horrible, I'm sorry you didn't have a chance to even have a go at one of those three well-paid jobs. Thank you, I'm tired of everyone and their shit. I need to be free from this nightmare.

This definitely connects to my overall life philosophy that makes me want to CTB.

I play a lot of scenarios out in my head, and each of them reach an endgame that I just don't care for.

Let's just say I put in all of the effort to pull myself out of the doldrums, I change my thinking patterns, I get extremely healthy and engage in hobbies and activities that better myself, I do all of these things and find myself in a better place than I am now. Well, I still need to survive, I still need to eat, I still need to stave away the guilt of not being productive, this means work is inevitable.

I've already had a cushy job that pays well, it made me miserable and was a catalyst that led me down this path in the first place. Why fight at all if the outcome is most of my time being monopolized by selling my labor to someone?

 

[EmbraceOfTheVoid]

I'm too disabled to work but it's one of my reasons. My quality of life has always been awful but I need money to simply exist in Hellish conditions so I don't get worse and that frankly isn't a good enough reason to try to work.

I don't enjoy anything anyways so I don't see the point in doing something that makes me worse both physically and mentally. I worked from home for the past year and while it's nice to be able to buy some things for self care; the work itself just made me want to die more.

I've been a NEET cumulatively for a decade.

 

[Defenestration]

Yes,ctb because or work....I cant work again. Im 33

 

[SuicidallyCurious]

On the reverse side many people CTB after they retire due to boredom and old age .

I find work to be meaningful despite the fact that in modern civ a lot of work you do will be spent bailing out obviously failing social systems and living arrangements .

but how else would you describe life - it's a constantly failing set of living arrangements until you die

 

[it's_all_a_game]

I hate work. Not doing it; I'm O. K. with that. What I loathe is struggling to survive. We shouldn't have to pay to live.

 

[262653]

It would be much easier and logical if I just went back to the Void I came from, after all, death is inevitable anyway.

Is this normal? Are there any other animals out there who learn how to fuck before learning how to survive on their own? It doesn't sound right, not for the animals like us, to keep your offspring on life support into adult age. There have to be challenges, adversities, to make sure that humans grow and become stronger while the remainder find solace in death.

I think I would be better off with my family dead. That way I'll be forced to choose between survival and suicide.

Spoiler: Whatever

[] mediocrity
[] work

Pick one.

 

[DetachedDreamer97]

Yeah, it is definitely a huge factor for me. So much that I feel like doing it very soon.

Thats cool, im glad for you. If I could make money like that it would(maybe) be enough for me not to ctb at least ...

I am not smart, I feel that naturally my IQ is well below average. The only thing I can stand out are games ...
I have a easy time handling computers too, but any job out there at an electronics store requires a good resume and the payment is ridiculous. I wouldn't be able to handle it that long. Living in a broken country is extremely difficult. Either you study all day to get a decent job (which is not even guaranteed) or you live like someone who has barely just to survive. I can't go either way.

 

[GenesAndEnvironment]

If there's nothing you'd like to do, and you don't really have "the skills to pay the bills", pick something that is useful and needed. That's what I'm doing. I'll probably fail and just stay a NEET, but I'll keep trying until some of the shit sticks to the wall.
