Does anyone feel like hikikomori?

[Nothing Left]

I don't feel like one; I am one.

An older one, too.

Just too bad that unlike the people in Japan, I don't have a place to stay after my dad dies.

I definitely would be a hikikomori if SSDI paid me enough. Unfortunately, that's not the case and I don't live alone. But I wouldn't mind being isolated and just being in front of the PC uninterrupted all day tbh, as long as I had enough money to eat and pay my bills~

In terms of hardly ever leaving the house- yes. But, I do work (from home- obviously.)

Same here

100% a hikikomori, I genuinely don't remember the last time I walked outside my house.
I feel like in my case it's mostly due to social anxiety.

i was a hikikomori for like 3 years and i would still be one if i didnt have to drag myself out of the house to take care of my disabled grandma

I currently am and probs will be as long as i get health benefits. If it stops, i'll be dead.

Been one for nearly a decade now basically. I do go outside, but only when I know not many others will be around. I live on a thread of scraps, and will be fine withering away to death.

I share a space with others constantly, so I have not been physically alone in years.

Argh.
