Hikikomori

[Wkoncuodejde]

Are you hikikomori? How does it affect your perception of the world? I'm almost 3 years of sitting at home without leaving it long months. Last year I left the house maybe 5 times (not including only take parcels in a parcel locker). I started to hate the whole world, life and the whole society during long hours of thinking at home.

I miss when I had a hikikomori lifestyle. As nice as some aspects of my job are, it can be really overwhelming. I want to withdraw again and just stay in my home forever. I wish there was a job that I could realistically do while maintaining that lifestyle.

Your username is definitely befitting a thread like this. I wish that I could go back to that. I'd love nothing more in life than to just be a hikki with my favorite person.

I've worked from home for the past 4 years and all of my friends are 300 miles away in my hometown. I have deleted my social media and have no real connections with anyone. I even stopped working out. So, I guess I am somewhat hikikomori. The isolation has been tearing down my mental health, but it's so hard to break free from it.

For the past year

I quit my job in January so I've only been for 2 months (leave home to get food, or go for walks in the early morning, but that's it). Already I can't see a way out, any job that I could last at or anywhere to go that would make me want to reenter the world. I wonder when the point of no return will be and if I'll reach it

Freelancers aren't hikikomori. Hikikomori don't have jobs they depend on their parents.
Yes i am. It has been 7 years for me. although i want to get out of it at some point.

I was before being homeless. I'm disabled and wish I never even started that bullshit. Would've made dying a lot more easier.

they depend on their parents.

No, they can be on disability, not everyone has those.

Lifted like that through High school, but now I actually gotta work :(

I said that because the vast majority of hikkis depend on their parents getting welfare is hard for some.

High schoolers aren't hikikomori.

I left my job about 2 and a half years ago.

I miss some things. I miss the routine mainly I guess.

Now I very rarely leave my apartment, and sometimes go weeks without seeing anyone else. I'm okay with that 99% of the time, but on the rare occasion I do feel the loneliness of my existence

Why did you leave, and what do you do now all day?

I left just because I was in a coma at work, really. It was like spending 18 hours of your day asleep and I thought it was a waste. Now I just watch stuff, mostly which is still a waste but at least it's on my own terms I guess

Everything in life got on top of me and I couldn't cope with work anymore, I somehow lasted 9 years where I was.

Mainly living on savings now. I don't do much either, try and sleep as much as possible to escape. Occasionly have brief periods where i'm a bit better and try and catch up with friends during those brief times.
