I used to frequent this forum a lot a couple of years ago; i used to enjoy commiserating with my fellow bald folk. Though i know there are some awesome people here, the reality is that this forum does not help - it simply enables you to dwell on your obsessions.
Mind you, being obsessed with hairloss is not unreasonable - it's absolutely a curse. But this forum is as well because it will multiply the amount of time dwelling on this in an extremely unhealthy way.
For the newcomers on this forum, you will probably think - "who's this dumbass - go away if you don't like the forum!"
For the old timers who do remember my activity - do yourself a favor; leave the forum. Do it for your sake, and for your sanity. You don't need this place; there are great people in it, and friendships to be had, but it is all revolving the obsession with our collective faults.
I say this with as much sadness as i can; there is no cure to the problem we have. I don't say it to be negative, it's just a fact. Since i stopped visiting this site, there's been no practical progress to treatments. This illusion we have of control over this disease through camaraderie reminiscing about our faults is flawed. I say this not to annoy you but to hopefully get through that though we may not have much choice in dealing with this curse, we do have a choice in not giving it more time than it deserves.
note: not to be rude, but note i will not reply to comments/messages.
be well.
