Are you stuck inside your house or even just your bedroom and you can't leave? Please let us know!
Hello everyone, I'm doing a listener project on the Hikikomori issue that is so prevalent among us social anxiety sufferers, yet it doesn't have good support systems or discussion.
Hikikomori (literally "pulling inward, being confined", i.e., "acute social withdrawal") is a Japanese term to refer to the phenomenon of reclusive adolescents or adults who withdraw from social life, often seeking extreme degrees of isolation and confinement. The term hikikomori refers to both the sociological phenomenon in general and the people belonging to this societal group. Hikikomori have been described as recluses, loners, or "modern-day hermits".
