    That sounds like a very severe case of untreated depression. I know anon is 33 but where the fuck were his parents for the first 20 years of their life?

      Separated from me because I have severe anger issues, which led to Social Services forcibly removing me - not to help me - but to make putting me under what amounted to house arrest at 11 years old to save taxpayer money instead of actually caring about an autistic child by placing me in a group home where I was the only child capable of speech.

      When my parents got me back, I was three years behind my peers in tech knowledge that I prioritized re-learning over assoviating with my idiot wigger classfoes. Then I realized I was incapable of handling the stress of university and simply couldn’t go.

      I tried a writing career but my only option for a psychiatrist (literally the only psychiatrist within a 1.5 hour drive of my hometown) destroyed my life and online social networking with psychiatric malpractice.

      The internet never forgives, I hate you all and hope you’ll die painfully because you already hate me. If you don’t, it’s because our hobbies didn’t overlap in 2017-2024, and thus I have no reason to bother discussing anything with anyone ever again.

      The parents were most likely thinking that the problem will resolve itself and it’s just temporary. Speaking as a person that will write a similar greentext in 9 years.

        I hope you find something you are interested in

        My life would be much easier now and Id be able to buy whatever I wanted if I had applied myself earlier instead of just coasting and partying

        Honestly? I know nothing about your situation. So maybe this is completely off. In that case, sorry for being cliche. But try burger flipping (or shelve packing, or…) at least once. In the worst case, you have a better reason to hate the system now, in the best case, you get some routine. Or, I don’t know, help some people with stuff. Does not even matter what it is. But humans were not meant to do nothing.

      The last 2 lines of the text make it sound like bait if the 6-figure thing wasn’t a joke (otherwise, delusional). Depression likely, if not other health issues that led to this.

      I am not quite as bad as the text but for me: parents are doing their own thing (these days, computer time), almost as isolated as I am.

      It probably helps that I do tasks for them (mostly sweeping, unloading dishwasher/garbage, carrying firewood etc). Not that I can do much given that I, much like they (who are anti-doctor), have untreated health issues. Seemingly is enough they don’t threaten to kick me out (though maybe they know that I would just leave with no place to go, and likely die).

      Also it was unlikely in car-centric areas of the USA as-it-was

      but I don’t think there’s hard-working out of this after medicaid is gutted (not that was even an easily accessible path before).

      Maybe anon can lose 50 pounds, get a hobby, and leave the house a few times a month when the weather is nice… but probably not getting a job/moving out with no help while the government implodes and normal people were already struggling to pay bills.
