Well,we know all about the blasé 'cure in the next 5 years' phrase. Suppose the cure doesn't come for the next 15 years. We just have the same pills,topicals, hair transplants etc. How would this affect the answer?

Well,i created my account 2 years ago,but never really frequently used it,except for the last two months.
There's a random shift of interests that doesn't really depend on you...It's where life gets you.
So,i guess the answer to your question is: ''When we get a life'':)

I've developed a sense of liking towards some of you guys,not gonna lie.it seems as if I know you guys,I can imagine them in flesh and blood.i don't have hairloss right now,but I still end up over here. I don't know why. I guess I'm in a middle of a phase just like you and this'll pass with time hopefully

I came across this forum since it had alot of people with BDD. I think the number of people with BDD on here is growing. Not only that but I made some great connections with people here like @Joan, @s.a.f , @Wolf Pack,@WhitePolarBear and @sunchyme1 so I can't find myself leaving this place too easily. Those people have become like "family" to me and have supported me and have uplifted my life.

I think I'll leave by this summer for sure more or less and no longer browse the forum at all. It's been on my mind for a while. I've had a really good time on here and I'm SO GRATEFUL to the people that helped me on my way with hair treatment - which has proved life changing and life saving. I'll never forget them and always think of them when something relevant happens in real life. It's like I know their personality or aspects of it, that's how well I've bonded with a few. I'm sure it's the same for them. It's crazy how people online can help another, one of the best things about the internet. Back when I was 18, forums were so much rarer. Internet was on a crappy desktop, inaccessible with limited sites and traffic. Much more developed now. It's a double edged sword though. More help is available on the internet but social media also screws up vulnerable people too.

I have my full head and don't need to worry about future treatments with finasteride usage and transplants. Nor am I lonely. I'll stay over PM for my good friends with periodic logins because I like them too much. Agustin kind of does the same. I also have good support and people to talk to in real life about anything. There's a few people who know I'm on here in real life and one girl said to me yesterday she doesn't get why I post frequently, that is there something lacking in her support or my other friends.

I said to her, actually I don't know the answer to that and I've thought a lot about it. I've always liked talking/discussing, but she's right, the more time I spend here, even with mod tasks, the more time I lose in real life. With work, gym, people, travelling, other hobbies. Of course I get it all done but I'm still logging on. It adds up. Everyone has said this to me who knows I'm on here, particularly the last 6 months or so. I quit for half a year I think more or less a while go.

I think the icing on the cake was when I went to the Himalayas. Couple of my friends said you're logging on to do mod tasks right now and laughed lol. I'll admit, the mod jobs have died down since some argumentative users have been dispatched. There was a period where there was a lot of illegal stuff going on over pm, war between people too, kinda tiring. I think many of you don't need this forum either, lets face it, it does go beyond hair loss but just based on hair most of us in this section are blessed and have been forever.

If it feels like home, there's nothing wrong in that. But I will be moving on for reasons mentioned. I think many long term members have done the same and I've had time to interact with them over PM as mod and learnt their reasons. It made sense to me.

The only time I was able to not browse on this forum was when I have too much drama in my own life that it drew my attention away from this place. @Wolf Pack, just think if you stop browsing you would miss milestone events like @Afro_Vacancy losing his virginity.:p Or when @sunchyme1 becomes a full head with some new treatment. Or when @WhitePolarBear and @JohnsonDDG( not to each other just to clarify:D) get married and have children. Or when @shookwun writes a best selling self help book or when I finally write Hairlosstalk: The Movie.:p

You're right but a friend like you can update me on PM :p Also I thought it was a HairLossTalk.com book first, might be better as you can be really creative with words :D

It's different for all I guess. For me, if I have drama in my life, then I'd write more on here I think and open up. As this place becomes a refuge away from it all.

I'm glad I caught Afro's thread, that was big milestone. If I ever open a hair clinic, I'm giving a free (as much as possible) mega mega session to Ex and CF, provided they make the candidate cut ;)

@Wolf Pack, in that case, I hope you have more drama in your life.:D
:rolleyes:;)

This forum has become a sort of 'social media' for me. A few months ago,I couldn't have ever imagined myself spending time on public forums like this one. I have stopped using instagram and facebook and log on here more often to read the banter,red-pill stuff etc. Sometimes I read the posts of some of the very first users of this forum and ponder what they're upto nowadays? Did they ever found any solace,what's their life like right now,have they changed mentally and become stronger etc? This forum has made me understand the sorrows that people face in their day to day lives. Everyone has their own battle and they're silently fighting it;I've utmost respect for people in general nowadays and I don't take things for granted now. Thank you hairlosstalk.

I'd love it if the forum never died.The cure will come out and we can all share how it has changed our lives, our perception of ourselves, people's attitude. We'll still be sitting here in 50 years posting pics of our thick silvery manes and admiring our pensioner nw1s. We can rename the site chadtalk.com

From what I heard, Stanx and Xander were abducted by aliens to study the incel life. Dante was returned unharmed and is on tour spreading the word of how alien abduction is actually a great vacation from our deteriorating earth thanks to social media.
