There are at least half a million of them in Japan. It was once thought of as a young person’scondition, but sufferers are getting older and staying locked away for longer. It is an economic as well as a social threatto the country, and is seriously worrying Japanese government.As of 2015, there were 541,000 hikikomori aged 15-39 in Japan, according to government statistics. There is no dataon other age groups, suggesting that the figure is likely to be far larger. Some families are also loath to report hikikomoriin their households, Kingston said. Doctors began to observe hikikomori as a social phenomenon around the mid-1980s,when young men exhibited signs of lethargy, refused to communicate, and spent most of their time in their rooms. There’sno unifying reason why people become hikikomori. Some withdraw from society because they feel they don’t know whatto do with their lives and can no longer cope with the pressure from people around them. Others are triggered by eventsin their lives, like bad grades or heartbreak. Hikikomori feel a deep sense of shame that they cannot work at a job likeordinary people. They think of themselves as worthless and unqualified for happiness. Almost all feel remorse at havingbetrayed their parents’ expectations.As hikikomori refuse to participate in society, let alone go to work, Japan’s economy also suffers. They diminish thesize of the workforce, so they contribute to a tighter labor market. Also, they are not self-sufficient, so when familysupport dries up due to death or financial problems, they will need to rely on state assistance.Japanese government plans to set up counseling centers and have support staff visit hikikomori at home in a bid toboost the country’s flagging workforce. But some criticize this may put pressure on hikikomori. Professor Jeff Kingston,an Asian studies professor in Tokyo, said, “One can only hope that more access to various therapies and public healthcampaigns to destigmatize the phenomenon will encourage more to seek help, find it, and learn to manage their symptomsso that they can lead more productive and fulfilling lives.”

Since theIndustrial Revolution began in the 1780s, people had been finding ways to make sure they got to work on time. Backthen, a knocker-up, also known as a “knocker-upper,” started as a profession to wake people up by knocking on theirdoors or windows.Even though alarm clocks had been invented in 1787 by American inventor, Levi Hutchins, they were not yet availableto the general public in Britain or Ireland. It was common for people in these places to hire knocker-ups to wake themup in the morning. Half a century after the invention of alarm clocks, Frenchman Antoine Redier patented an adjustablealarm clock in 1847. Still, mechanical alarm clocks were not cheap or widely available. Well into the 1920s, most workersin Britain would rather hire knocker-ups.Knocker-ups used a variety of methods to wake up their clients. Some used a baton, or a short, heavy stick, to knockon the client’s door. Some used a long and light stick made of bamboo to reach the client’s window on a higher floor.Still others used a pea-shooter, through which small objects can be blown, to shoot dried peas at their clients’ windows.Their job was to rouse the sleeping clients, and they certainly came up with creative ways to achieve this goal. Knocker-ups would not leave a client’s door or window until they made sure that the client had been awaken.There were large numbers of people carrying out the job, especially in large industrial towns such as Manchester.Knocker-ups were generally elderly men and women, but sometimes police officers would take on the job to earn extraincome by performing the task during early morning patrols. But who woke the knocker-uppers? A tongue-twister fromthe time goes like this:We had a knocker-up, and our knocker-up had a knocker-upAnd our knocker-up’s knocker-up didn’t knock our knocker upSo our knocker-up didn’t knock us up‘Cos he’s not up.By the 1950s, knocking up had gradually died out in most places due to the wide spread of electricity and affordablealarm clocks.
