Blame the search engine for bringing the thread up. And the OP is still around, so it isn't that unreasonable.

I still live with my parents at age 19, if it counts. Though I'm doing a job internship.

30, unemployed, and I still live with my parents. Finding a suitable job is difficult but I have been volunteering at my local hospital, sorting folders containing patient information. Hopefully that leads to something.

Deep inside, I want new people to interact with who accent me. It’s just difficult finding somewhere I don’t feel alienated.

28 and stuck in a backwater country hellhole with a mother who still treats me like I'm 5 and the most obnoxious man in the world for a father. I volunteer at my local radio station where I record a kpop program once a fortnight but I'm getting burnt out on that bc I've been doing it since I was 9, way before I got into kpop, and I'm running out of things to talk about, plus I don't feel any connection to the people there. A chain grocer near me is hiring so I might try for a position there if I can manage to get a resumé together. Otherwise all I have are my video games and anime, my online friends (love y'all!), and my occasional trips into the city, either to go swimming or when my irl friends invite me out bc I am awful at organising things so I just end up waiting for someone else to make the first move.

I'm 37, and while I don't technically live at home, I still live in a home for handicapped people, which is close to that, I guess. Still, it's my own apartment, so that's something.

But yeah, I have a hard time finding a job, or really finding anything to do professionally. I've spent like 30 years studying, and while I enjoyed that a lot and got two university degrees out of that, now that that is over and done with I'm feeling a bit lost as to what to do next. Turns out I was leaning a lot on the structure and goals of school life, and now that's gone I have trouble making goals for myself. It probably doesn't help that I don't particularly need to work, financially speaking.

[up][up] I know right? I want that too, but I don't really know where to start.

[up] My mom does that too, yeah.

I am not a basement dweller but I do tragically live with my parents (Well, one of them anyway). I had done some part time work to at least contribute to the house. I am pathetic....

I'm not an Alpha Male.

This means you're not a Basement Dweller. You're just a shy guy who happens to live in a basement.

Don't worry, relax, things will be fine.
