shut-ins/hikikomori and NEET in Japan

from Quiet Field Notes · host Chaa Chaa Ogino

I believe teenage suicide can be reduced —but only by staying with people long enough.We don’t do this work to fix people.I do it because sometimes, simply staying with someone —reducing fear at home, protecting dignity, and offering a small paid step back into life (growing apples, working at our cafe...) — is what keeps a young person alive.https://www.quietude.jp/en/home-english/
