Trans Mega Thread!

So, let's try something here.

Frequently a trans-related topic comes up in a thread here in /hikki/, and the thread will quickly get derailed by malicious comments or by the diversion in topic just taking over. There is clearly a lot of interest in discussing trans topics, as well as a lot of unwelcome interest in shutting them down. But they do tend to take over threads either way. So, while we figure out how to handle this from a moderation standpoint, I am going to make a trans discussion mega thread here to contain such conversations. This might end up being permanent. If you find that a thread makes you want to discuss a trans-related topic, make a post here instead.

Rules 6 and 7 are strictly enforced in this thread, and violations will result in longer bans. However, uncomfortable questions are also allowed within reason.

Also if a trans topic starts to derail a thread from now on we may delete those posts.

Also Sei is trans. So I might make some posts in here as well.

Update 11/04/2024: When the conversation in the trans thread veers into whether transness is even a thing that exists, that will be considered an attempt at derailment. This thread isn't for you. It is specifically a containment thread for people who want to talk about transness from the starting assumption that the topic itself and the kind of identity it discusses is valid. Please keep that in mind.

From now on, the >>>/rec/ board should generally be used for conversations about recovery from NEETism. This is not a hard rule but you are likely to have a better experience.

Seeing as absolutely everyone misread the /hikki/ rules sticky and used it to draw apocalyptic conclusions about the death of all that was good about /n/, here's a less flippant sticky with less room for ambiguity, in the form of a Q&A. We've also made some concessions based on your feedback in thread >>13, which was moved to /sugg/ for being meta.

What is allowed on this board? What is its purpose?
On this board you can discuss and request or give advice regarding NEETism, Hikikomoriism, anxieties and social or mental issues arising from these conditions of living, and things closely related to these topics. If you're content with being a NEET at this stage in your life, that's ok, and you won't get in trouble for saying so. The board's primary focus is self-help and advice regarding these issues. Despite rumors, threads looking for help with suicidal feelings or drug addition are also allowed.

What is not allowed on this board?
* Encouraging others to become NEET.
* Attacking or discouraging others for being NEET.
* Giving or requesting advice on how to enter the NEET lifestyle.
* Encouraging or showcasing drug usage.
* Announcing your planned suicide.
* Helping others to plan or commit suicide.
* Topics not related to the purpose of the board. Such topics will be moved.

I'm lonely
I've lost almost all my friends, both online and irl and I spend most of my time alone
I tried a sport or going to parties or stuff like that in the past but I never managed to make a connection with someone and I was always the one sitting alone in a corner
I really wish I could socialize better but I panic and freeze when I'm put in a social situation, even online I can't join in on conversations because I get scared
on top of the self hatred I already have idk if I'll manage to find people willing to stick with me
does anyone have any advice, please?

I have a online friend with bpd that I'm afraid is becoming a neet.

i got a job at domininjas and the online training sucks

like i get physically exhausted just thinking about it

i mean i want to work to have something to do and to get money but it feels like im getting aged upwards 10 years every minute i spend staring at the course. like the guy on the carousel in something wicked this way comes by ray bradbury

it also really really scares me that this is a glimpse into the standard level of enjoyment i'll be feeling for the rest of my life. work is hell, and i doubt i'll ever find something fun and worth doing that also gets me fulfillment and money. i wish i could study but most major colleges don't like my kind of person very much and i tried going to a shitty backwater one and was tempted to shank the principal so theres that

Honestly, while delivery driver isn't necessarily the most experience filled job, you can basically put on your resume that you have customer service experience and willingness to travel for work. You can also fluff it up a bit and say you have experience driving for a work place environment and you know your way around the town/city. Employers like with you phrase it like that. Hell one of things that got me my current job was experience with DoorDash of all things.

ok update ive started delivering piss a… its nice having money i guess. depending on what sks thinks i should get ill either get a tsr box or the doctor who precons. or maybe i'll save my money. who knows.

but honestly having some semblance of routine back in my life has only served to make things feel by contrast more depressing and banal than before. its really scary to think that i'll never actually be happy. i think things would be a lot easier if i had some friends, but i don't really like socialising outside of card games all that much anyway, and i have a really hard time connecting with people if i don't a) have a common interest or b) i can't talk to them one-on-one. honestly i think having a girlfriend or boyfriend or whatever would really help but i think real people are kind of icky and there would automatically be the expectation of romantic or sexual escalation. plus outside of anime, doctor who, or danganronpa fanfiction, having a waifu or hasubando seems really corny and not actually at all fulfilling

i'll try going back to school or college next year, even if i will stick out like a sore thumb. but seeing how little difference having a job has made, i doubt learning or socialising will do much, either.

any advice? i would really love to know if there's literally any point in keeping my hopes up or if everything is just gonna be this shit forever.

>She is interesting

It's normal to be interested in sweet people who are nice to you. I assure you that you'll meet many more.
>I wish I was better at interacting
>Maybe I could reach that point
You certainly can. Social skills are a matter of practise, like every other skill. The more you interact with people, the better you'll get, even if you fuck up a lot. It's all part of the process.
>It doesn't feel like it
Process usually isn't a dramatic leap, but once you've gotten further, there'll be a point where you can look back and really see that you've gotten much better at social interactions. That's how it was for me. I'm not super good at this stuff either but it's a huge difference from how I used to be.

I was straight up in love with my previous therapist. I stalked her on every social media profile I could find: pinterest, spotify, her sisters instagram - anything. I would have butterflies when she entered sessions. I dreamt about her. I would find porn with women that looked like her to jerk off to. I jerked off to her psychology today profile (low point). I was devastated when I found out she was engaged to get married. But still, I remained delusional. Then, our second to last session… we talked about fantasy, delusions. My annoying trait of creating and conversing with versions of people I know in real life in my head. I realized so much of my life was spent with these versions of people. They weren't reality, just my sad attempt at controlling peoples narratives of me. I decided to stop having convos with people in my head - these imagined convos were effecting me negatively; shaping how I saw those people in real life when they had never expressed those opinions to me. My therapist was included in this. Overnight the fervency of the crush died down. The next session (our last) was weird, and I think she must have felt it too. I never scheduled another session.

It's weird, reflecting on our time, it feels like a relationship. It activates the same part of my brain that tingles when I think about exes…

is anyone else here beginning to develop something to the effect of paranoia and delusions after prolonged social isolation? i've been completely alone for over a year now, and even when i was younger i was a social outcast. lately i've begun to have these episodes where i compulsively worry/catastrophize about things like people stalking me, this weird internet conspiracy where people are stalking me and recording everything i do, something to the truman delusion. on top of this i've begun to notice that objects in my room are telepathically communicating with me; it's not like "hearing voices" as the voices are very obviously in my head in the same space as like an internal monolouge, they aren't "diegetic" really, i can tell that they aren't real and are just hallucinations, but it defintiely isn't normal.

is it possible for loneliness and prolonged social isolation to cause psychotic symptoms? am i losing my mind?

something to note in the case of comorbidity; i am diagnosed with major depressive disorder and my psychiatrist seems to believe and wants to investigate the possibility of borderline personality disorder, which may partially be related to my social isolation and why i'm in this situation in the first place. I apologize if this thread comes off as strange or weird question.

Me too OP. Mental health services told me it's an issue with my life instead.

Not much really. Depends on your strategy though, it would probably be hard to make serious money with it *now*, but if you circumvent stock agencies and go directly to buyers… maybe in the low hundreds (of dollars)

I do surveys. Five Surveys and Prime Opinion are all from the same company. they're legit and even gave ACH if you prefer that.

I've recently also been trying out those "Play Games and Earn Money" apps. I use Prizeplay and it's easy to make over a dollar on there within its 3 hour limit. I'd say just pick a mindless game from their catalogue, download it, and play it. It offers prepaid cards, gift cards and PayPal payments. I haven't cashed out my 1 dollar yet but I should to see if it even works. They said they'll just email your earnings.

Anything else remote and isolating requires some skill, like coding or knowing how to draw. But anyone can do that if they put their time and effort into it.

>small source of income
Idk about online income, but my first thoughts are
- Donating blood and plasma
- Pet care (Dog-walking, cat-sitting, fish-feeding)
- Tutoring
- Commissions
>Realized
Cat sitting. I do it every now and then and it's pretty neat.
I use the app Cat in a Flat https://catinaflat.com/ which makes you use Stripe for payment which I initially thought was a bit annoying but it does make the transactions feel more secure. The cat sitting app itself also takes a fee from what you earn. Overall, you'll lose 20% percent of the money you earn to a service charge, which you have to keep in mind when you set your prices. (Once you have a client, you could theoretically also do business without the app, although it's against terms of service I think).
>alone
>from home
You have to meet up with the cats' owners ofc and also send them regular updates (via WhatsApp where I'm from) with photos of the cats and you also won't be in your home but in theirs… But for me, it was really relaxing, it was basically just me going to someone's home nearby, meeting them once and then getting to chill at their place with the cats. You only have to be there for like an hour (or was it 40 minutes? it's in the contract) for every visit and do all of the cat care duties ofc, but I often stayed a bit longer. My regular client pays me to stay the night, so it's just me chilling with these adorable cats all day, taking photos, doing cat care but mostly doing unrelated stuff on my laptop while petting the cats. My regular client has a nice kitchen, shower and really comfy bed and also leaves snacks for me, I just gotta vacuum in return before they get back and it's cool, they also pay pretty well.
>All day? No way
You can also just do the 40 minute visits, you decide on the times with the pet owners afterall.

Have you guys ever experienced limerance?

I met my limerence object 2 years ago in a rythm game forum, then got closer in a discord server with people of the forum, before this I was the type of person that did not care about relationships or even friendships but being there made me apreciate having someone to talk to even if it was online.

A year passed, I was getting closer to him and slowly fell in love for the first time, every interaction felt euphoric and time without him was pure despair. After confessing due to reasons and getting rejected because of phisical distance we still were friends and I slowly got better at dealing with the addiction (I still struggle tbh)

I have been going to a therapist for this and other reasons, so he is trying to get me to know other autistic people semi-close to where I live
to have more social circles since i only have my LO's and my neighbor.

It's really hard for me to move on since we have so much in common and it feels like we were meant to be except for the phisical distance, I wish one day I find someone like him and can be in a secure relationship
