How do you guys manage to stay out of bed as shut-in NEETs? I have been a NEET for almost a decade and only now have I realized I'm addicted to laying on my bed all day. I think all started 10 or so years ago when I was still in school, I started to prefer laying on my bed than staying on the computer or doing anything else on my free time. Then I dropped out and became a NEET. Obviously as a shut-in there's not much to do so I normally stay on my bed all day. I have a good computer, but can't stand using it for long. My back and legs start aching and I just find my bed so damn comfortable. I have lots of blankets, cuishons and plushies to make myself even extra comfy. This is bothering me because I can't work on personal projects or use the static bike I bought because I spend my days on my bed doing nothing. Even lurking the internet is way better for me on the bed using my tablet because I can zoom in if I have to and I can watch anime on it. I started joining IRC channels from my computer in hopes to keep myself out of bed since IRC works better from a desktop.
This seems to be a real mental condition called clinophilia. There's barely any info on it besides
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clinophilia and most people online treat it like a joke "haha yeah I love staying in bed!" normalfag type of comments. But this is a serious illness as it makes me unable to stay healthy and active even as a NEET.

You probably have very weak back muscles, so its hard to support yourself when you stand horizontally.
I don't discourage you from laying in bed, stay comfy, wiz. Bit you should try working oj your back muscles. Lucky for you, most exercises can be done in bed.
You may say you don't need that and I'm being a nagging fag, but I have a genetically weak spine, so I know that if you neglect that stuff, even lying down would feel like torture. Soon, you might find that your ass hurts all the time, not only when you walk.

i had this pretty bad, still do, NEETed for over 15 years. At points i was basically an invalid spending the entire 24hrs in bed,
A few things, this behaviour impacts physical health. You wont be able to be healthy straight away.
To start try sitting at your desk at your computer gamin or whatever early in the morning, even before noon it will feel like an entire day has gone by.
After noon, I suggest getting into cooking because this requires you to stand.
Also no tidying your room, thats free NEET exercise.
Finally after a month of this, consider doing some exercise as part of this routine.

I have to piss, so that gets me up.
I've done my years of bed rotting and I just always got sick of it in the end and started going for hikes or jogs.
The only real answer is exercise, and you'll waste away if you let yourself.

>>300049I made a post about this sometime ago titled bedrotting, basically all I do is stay in my bed all day, and I can even enter a trance like state where I am half-asleep and half-awake, I am trying to get myself to stop doing this but it's becoming like a drug really. I am not actually a NEET just yet, I am still in college but of course my college degree is largely useless. So I spend my free time on the bed, I am also gaining weight like crazy and basically look like I am fucking pregnant or have a football in my stomach.
How long do you think you can continue living like this? Do you have your parents or state support you for now? With me I have my parents support me till I complete my college education and then I will basically be left for the dead.

>>300049I know when you’ve been depressed your whole life it sort of turns into a buzzword at some point. But if you’re laying in bed 50-70% of your day you by definition have clinical depression. I do this as well but because there are no known cures there isn’t much you can do. Exercise genuinely does help but asking someone with so little energy to exercise is difficult. I hope they find a cure to depression one day.

>>300170The cure to depression is either to delude yourself by thinking your life is wonderful which people like me can't do because they know the truth so the other cure is real improvement in living conditions like jobs, career, family, etc but for all these you require a specific height, race, and face (additionally gender and place of birth). These three (or five) things are only attainable through genetic lottery and citizenship lottery. If you're a third worlder, brown, ugly, short, poor and a male then all you could do is lie down on your bed and wish how things could've been different. And while you do that you realise that you've been wasting time and are ignoring your problems which only make them more and bigger and you realise that you have been nothing else but a leech on your family.

I like my bed, but that's probably because all my chairs suck. But it might be a godsend to prevent me from getting deep vein thromboses. The bed I have now though is super high up so its harder to do a lot of the computer activities I enjoyed while sitting up in bed. I feel kinda stuck with it as its a family heirloom and has a lot of storage space below it.
But yeah I've seen people become bed ridden and die, so I get concerned I'm not outside moving about more while I'm young before I suffer the same fate.
