I am sick of my Mother not believing my hair loss

She has seen my hairline receding but she says "I don't think you're balding because you would be bald like your grandfather was at his age". It doesn't mean it still can't happen! I have been trying to find a dermetologist to get a second opinion but unfortunately I am still under my parent's insurance plan.

If you know it's happening what does it matter what your Mother thinks? Do you go to your parents for all your medical problems? "Mom, I've found a lump on one of my testicles, can you have a feel and see if it's cancer or not?"

Your Mother is just trying to make her son feel better, that's not a crime. Go to a proper doctor.

Your hairline is seriously not that bad. Doesn't look worse than a mature hairline to me. Are you sure are really going bald? Do you have thinning in areas where a Norwood 2 is supposed to have all his hair?

Parents (usually mothers) are almost always in huge denial about their kids hairloss. Maybe its a defense mechanism.

You can't blame your mom for trying to make you feel better about yourself.

Heck my mother sometimes still comes into my bedroom and starts grooming and checking my hair and says oh u lost alot of hair now, you better hurry up and get married before you go completly bald like your father.

That doesnt help when your 30 years old and trying to chat to m8s on msn.

LOL

I'm 30 and trying to get a job close to home. If I get a job that I want, I might have to live with my parents for a bit. The idea is that I don't need to pay rent, etc.

Feels very strange going back to my parents house. I haven't lived with them full-time since I was 17.

I can't imagine my parents telling me not to smoke, or drink.

What do you do when you meet a chick at the bar?

Life is very hard under your parents rules and house, in fact its not much of a life I guess.... but you know not having to pay all that Rent/bills and this and that you save a heck of alot of money.

And to be honest its not all that bad I know its pretty poor to think were 30 years old and under our folks home, but family gotta stick together.

Heck why not all save money and help and share the bills equaly.

I know I would not have been able to save the little savings that I have now if I was not in my house.

Bit of a battle I guess its a catch 22 situation your dammed it you do and dammed if you dont, wish my crummy job was 30K like it should be !

:agree:

I think that's probably Mommys polite way of telling you, "YOU'RE 30 YEARS OLD! GET THE f*** OUT OF MY HOUSE!"

Seriously, I know that not having to pay proper rent is a bonus, but being 30 years old and still living at home!? There's a whole lot of world out there to explore and experience. Time to fly the nest.

Living with the parents till 30 is literally the norm in Southern Europe. Even after they get married and move out they are still mommy's boys :innocent:

I'm not sure if I'm moving home, but it is something I am considering. I haven't spent more than 10 days at a time with my parents since I was 17, so this will be a real challenge. I've realised our patience threshold is about a week, even 10 days is pushing it.

I like being close to family and friends, but I need my freedom. I don't know, I might move to the same city but rent my own place..... Have to make big decisions soon.

I want to get out of my parent's house and fast. I'm just waiting my raise and evaluate if its worth to stay or move to another country.

We all imagine a fresh start somewhere else...but there's no point in it if we stick by ourselves in that place.

Things look much more positive if you start again somewhere, but if you stay as lonely as you claim to be, then there really is no point.

He means, there is no point in moving out if you aren't gonna make it count. You need friends, and new exciting life.

I usually find life changes to be very exciting. I look forward to them. I know some people panic before making major life changes.

I've 28 year old and all my social life has been crappy. So crappy that i'm not in the mood of giving a second chance.
Today i'm stick in home with no one to go out. Even today that i feel nice and confident (not a bad hair day for example).

I'm so tired of this.

People here dont accept me very well. I hate this place. I hope to have the guts to move out and leave my parent's home even for a while.

When I was watching Portugal play in the Euro 2008, I remember they were showing some Portuguese fans outside the stadium and they said there is 300,000 or so Portuguese living in Switzerland. I'm not sure if I got the data wrong.

Anyway, the point is, you can be adventurous like the other Portuguese and go somewhere else and try something new.

There's huge portuguese communities around the world.
