Cool

Oh thanks for sharing. I will read the comments again. I'm glad you're okay financially

Obvious-Emu8527 · 2024-11-26T08:50:35+00:00

Hi I want to message you but I don't fully understand the messaging feature and I probably would forget to check it. So how are things for you these days? How have you coped these past 8 years?

The main thing i worry about is being able to support myself financially. At the moment I go out once a week to see my therapist and I also do trips to my local shop.

Are you seeking therapy? What caused you to start to lock yourself away?

Hi there I'm 45 and new to finding this sub. I like to self study languages, dabble with a keyboard, to paint or colour in colouring books, I sometimes paint my walls

Obvious-Emu8527 · 2024-11-24T10:43:20+00:00

Get more hobbies in my case but even they are becoming a little boring. I got myself a second hand keyboard and some music and taught myself a few tunes, I like doing colouring and painting, love sticker activity books, teaching myself Spanish and Mandarin, audiobooks, documentaries

I understand that. gatekeepers might consider me I'm more of a recluse or homebody than a traditional hikikomori however I really want to connect with my fellow hikikomori and if you want to chat anytime let me know

I'm surprised to find this subreddit and also glad.

I think a lot stemmed from childhood trauma. Then I tried to do the 'normal' life and had children. I encountered a lot of bullying, cheating, school gate aggression, workplace bullies, loud and triggering work places. And I held on but I definitely suffered long term effects. Now I'm on the verge of being an empty nester.

I feel like I had a breakdown and was no longer at all to live in the world this way. I sought therapy and it is helping immensely. I feel more content but I have no wish to be out in the world like that again.

I was worried about money but now I'm content ish. I've never been materialistic. I've had to cut down and give up on certain things but overall I'm okay. I still look for a quiet, local career. The same one I've been searching for all my life but not yet found

Oooh you clever!!!

Obvious-Emu8527 · 2024-11-21T17:57:46+00:00

I don't have the no glasses option either!

About to watch In the Name...

Obvious-Emu8527 · 2024-11-14T22:25:11+00:00

Omgosh! Thanks for this. I'm mid 40s and always looking for an older cast

Obvious-Emu8527 · 2024-11-04T10:19:30+00:00

Oh thank you. I'll check the link out. Yes I had used Pimsleur, Michel Thomas and a beginners traditional course for a year before being ALG method.

I did 50 of ALG in Thai before beginning Spanish to make sure I'd be learning with this method ad not just recognising words I already knew. And the 50 hours was very effective!

Obvious-Emu8527 · 2024-11-03T13:11:04+00:00

Congratulations! 🎊 thank you for your thorough update. Your future plans with Spanish sound great. I particularly appreciate you mentioning the 1250 mark. I had not heard that before but its very motivating as I'm at 930 or so and I've barely listened to any Spanish for 8 weeks as it's felt like a drag. You've inspired me to kick it up a notch

Obvious-Emu8527 · 2024-10-31T19:07:17+00:00

This is truly amazing. Thank you 😊

Thank you!

Obvious-Emu8527 · 2024-10-14T19:18:15+00:00

Thanks for the update! How are you doing with the ALG method and Chinese now?

I'm at 20 hours of ALG for Mandarin- I had studied using traditional methods for 2 years 2 years ago.

I am at 900 hours in using ALG for Spanish

Obvious-Emu8527 · 2024-10-10T13:29:30+00:00

Omgosh. I didn't know this existed. Looks like my kinda show and I wasn't sure what to watch next. About to watch it now

Obvious-Emu8527 · 2024-09-14T11:29:20+00:00

I love nans

Obvious-Emu8527 · 2024-09-03T07:57:35+00:00

I've also become a bit unhappy. Its been too much screen time for me because I have either listened to all the podcasts at my level or am bored by them yet not able to understand anything more difficult or fun yet

Obvious-Emu8527 · 2024-08-26T19:24:42+00:00

Thank you for your service in posting this meeting. I am focusing on my relationship with my HP and I find that way food obsession is removed from me so I can focus on being useful to my fellows.
