Why Does No One Understand The Impact Of Hair Loss?

[Notcoolanymore]

edit - fred, did you go to uni?

No, he learned everything from the streets.

 

[Rudiger]

Living in debt, no thanks.

Grants are only for lazy welfare leeches who work off the grid.

Too bad my parents both had a good job and were making good money when I was at university.

No grant for me.

But people I know who had two unemployed parents never had to pay a dime for university.

There's a reason I can't stand leftism.

"Oh you can't make it, you can't do what it takes to earn this? Here's what you need on silver platter!"

C'mon h.l hold it together...

I'm 27 and still living with my mom, and started my first job only a year ago.

It's becoming the norm in many parts of the world as living on your own is becoming way too expensive if you're single.

Living paycheck to paycheck by your early 20's and making 0 savings? Terrible strategy.

Yeah in your late 30's you'll be able to boast about not having been a mommy's boy for the last 15 years, but you'll be poor and without prospects, and you won't have the energy that you had in y our youth.

Living with your parents is the smart move.

I disagree, I was out of my house very young. I had hard times where I had to sleep on friends floors. I even slept in my car very early but only for a very short while. I worked 2 or 3 jobs at times, went to school part/full time. I remember one friend telling me I should be a doctor at how long it took me to just finish a garbage 4 year degree. At 25 I bought my first rental house, Im working on 2 more, I have a good job.
Theres an expression that heat and pressure make diamonds. Im disgusted when I see people 21+ still living at home, its just ridiculous. Its this lack of drive and self reliance that is seriously ruining a LOT of countries.

Now back to topic.... did you say your dad is in his 70s?!?!?!?

WTF mate?!

Id much rather be living in my moms basement until 30 and slay every day. Than live alone like I am now and be incel

My father broke me, the damage is deep and there's no fixing it.

Every time I interact with people, I'm afraid that they'll criticize me and tell me I'm no good.

You can tell I'm always a bit defensive, reserved, like I think I'm going to take a beating (even if it's a psychological one).

I can relate to this. I still have my "mental scars" from my dad and brother who belittled me everyday throughout my teens. Definitely gave me low self esteem and created my BDD and social anxiety. However, I did not know those two terms when I had it.

Took me a long time to let go of what they did but I have a great relationship with my dad now but maybe its because my brother doesn't. However, sometimes my dad regresses but now it does not bother me as much as I know this is just who he is and its not going to change.

My perspectives on alot of things have changed over the past 6 months and it has helped me battle my social anxiety and BDD to the point that I am "happy". As long as I don't dwell on all my regrets and the past, I do fine. This forum also helped me realize how common social anxiety, depression, and BDD haunt people's lives. A lot of you will change your perspectives as you age each decade.

What? you arent comparing apples to apples. If I had the choice of my brothers hair and living at home of course Id take it. Being in the situation you are though, just bald either way, you are better off being your own man.

 

[swingline747]

Yeah let's all make our lives harder for the sake of it.

As if hair loss wasn't enough sh*t for most of us.

Please.

I didn't say my father was 70, he's 54 .

Not your dad, that why I said "back on topic". The OP said his dad was 70 and he was 23. Also no one is saying "make your life harder", you are making your life what it is. Since when is life easy for the majority of the population. You are meant to work and strive. Spend your life wondering why it isnt "easy" and youll be in for a world of hurt.
I still had fun even though I worked a LOT through my 20. Yet its also kind of why I had a mini breakdown in my 30s. I had thought that that was when it was supposed to be "my time" but then the hair loss hit me so hard. My body went through middle life changes (more bulk than lean) and I got depressed. Im still depressed, it just runs in my family. Depression killed my old man.
Life is hard. Its just what is it, but in the end hard work will often lead to more appreciation and a much keener sense of self and surroundings.

Maybe, the word "disgusted" was a little too harsh to use and it triggered you. I was on my own at 18 and looking back I would have saved alot of money if I lived at home, rent free. So, I actually think its a smart way to save money. As long as the person is productive, I don't think there is anything wrong doing that. However, if they don't want to better their life or be productive I can see why someone would get "disgusted" with that type of lifestyle. I think that is what Swingline was trying to say but he chose the word "disgusted" as that is what he is feeling inside about his genetics and how privileged his brother's genetics are.

I honestly don't begrudge anyone getting funding for an undergraduate degree - if they are getting an education, enhancing their skills, and becoming a more informed citizen then I support it.

I think my support stops for people getting grants and funding for masters and phds in arts - I do believe that should be paid out with private loans.

agreed, I had to pay for all my school through loans and self. I see people crying to have it all paid now and it pisses me off. Everyone today just wants hand outs. This is what I mean, its the same premise. No one wants to work, they want life to be "easy". Its not easy. Ill tell you what, if Sanders and Pocahontas here in the states pass this free college bill and I still have to pay my loans, then they can expect some SERIOUS protests. Im not using my tax money to pay for some little shits to figure out what they want to do. Ill bur my houses down for the insurance payout, move to Texas and PERSONALLY start the rally for succession.

If you're in the US it's the logical thing to do but in Europe it's much harder, you can't just rent an house willy nilly.

I think STEM courses should be state subsidised and I if you want to do arts or humanities you should be allowed the money but only in the form of loans.

Its genuinely better for the nation to have as many educated people as possible.

I had to pay for my teaching course privately but I made all the money back after 3 months of working and I know have a trade to fall back on.

My undergrad is paid for by loans - pay back 12% of my income on anything over £21,000 per annum.

This, Americans have no idea how much we're taxed here.

After taxes, I make like 20000€ a year, and I have a level A job (master level or the highest level possible).

Good luck renting or buying a house on your own with that much money.

Then you have Americans (or Canadians?) like @shookwun who boast about making 100000€ a year.

In socialist Europe, that's never, ever happening, you could be an executive with 20 years of experience, it doesn't matter, you'll be making maximum 50000€ a year after taxes.

Also, overtime is illegal.

Harsh reality.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAA But all I hear from people over in your countries when conversating about schooling and health care is how much happier you all are.... are you telling me you DONT like being tax out of the bung?

The more money you make the harder they'll be on you, you can't evade taxes, they are always on the lookout for stand up people who slip. This is the problem, the people that should be rewarded get the hardest, while the people who shouldn't be breeding have all the support but that's socialism for you.

Also depending where you live you won't be able to rent an house unless you make X money monthly, doesn't matter if you have +50 000 Euros in the bank, in that case your only option is to buy one.

I know, it took me a long time to change my opinion on this.

If you're a 'doer' and someone who has some ambition like me, this system is horrible.

If you're a leftist leech, it's heaven, people can get lazier and lazier, sicker and sicker, and they will still be taken care of, rewarded by the system... that people like me have to work and pay for.

The system, combined with ignorance, takes all the humanity out of it.

I'm not doing a good deed by paying taxes, in fact I'm "hording more than my fair share". What's your fare share of my earnings?

Poor people aren't getting charity or being treated kindly by their grants/welfare, they are getting "to little to survive on " (to buy the new iphone).

Poor people somehow view taxpayers as the enemy. If there was no mandatory charity it would be the complete opposite.

I think tax is important unlike many libertarians, but I think, nowadays, it mostly comes out of greed and laziness.

It's good and bad, you have top notch surgeons working on the NHS but then the waiting lists are so huge in my country that by time they get to operate on you, you might as well wish they would just kill you instead. Paying +3000 € for some BS surgery is tough, I think even LASIK and the like should be free for all, even for leechers and the scum of the earth but they should be placed at the bottom of the list, a person that contributes is more important than one that doesn't but this doesn't happen in reality.

 

[resu]

This, I agree with the term "leftist leech", since I've always worked a lot I've always seen them as vermin at best. They make me sick. I'm not talking about those who are truly excused and can't work, or fell ill because of their jobs for example (e.g.; the Eternit scandal in Italy), I'm talking about those who are supposed to work and contribute but don't, since they know that they can live as parasites and are untouchable (like gypsies in Italy).

Gypsies here Portugal flood the hospitals and the emergencies all the time, they always block the entrance, the reception, the halls, make noise and threats, they actually put others in dangers while contributing with only social chaos and crime, truly the scum of the planet. It's always hilarious seeing american social activists so worried about our little gypsies, they think they're vagabonds from some fairy tale, you would put one of these dipshits living next door to a roma camp and they would move out the very same day.

Its the same way most of us feel about illegal Hispanics (or any illegals, just Latinos make the largest portion). Go to an emergency room and there will almost always be a good portion of Mexicans before you because they know they can not be turned away even with no ID. Then it falls on the premiums and costs of tax payers to pick up the tab. What kills me is these people fled countries that are in shambles because they pushed for socialist style systems that failed them. They now come here and want to vote in the same type of people that ruined their own countries...... definition of insanity? I watched an interview once where they were questioning some socialist lib during our election and his whole argument was "well we'll get it right this time".... yup this time!
Thank god people are starting to wake up. I told my GF if Hillary won then I was quitting my job and going on assistance for depression. She said she would kick me out of the house. I laughed and said, "good luck" Id be the one everyone would be sticking up for and more than likely the people you voted with would kick you out of the house.......

Today, a movie came out and the leftist press (that means all of the press) is at it again:

http://www.lemonde.fr/cinema/articl...cisme-a-doses-allopathiques_5106367_3476.html

"The movie is racist, what a failure, they can't say/do that!"

They did the same with the previous film of that director and guess what, it was a huge success, best French comedy in a long time.

I laughed my *** off with "Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait au bon dieu" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2800240/ but it seems that leftists want to suck the fun out of everything.

Everything is racist, everything is offensive, you can't caricature, mock, offend, etc. Way to sterilize humor.

It seems fewer and few people are on their (fascist) side, many people are just telling them to f*** off in the comments and their review made them want to see the movie even more.
