Being Diffuse Is Nothing Compared To Being Diffuse And Receding

[doyle11]

^ You are quite simply wrong. Are you sure there's no hairloss here?

Obvious BDD.

Jk, quite similar to my hairloss, norwood 2+ difuse thinning. Doesn't look too bad shaved though

Pre-mature hairloss just eats you up inside. I was 23 in 2006 when I first realized that I was really balding and I thought I'd surely be bald before I hit 30. Fast-forward to when I was 30 I still had some hair, very diffuse, but I wasn't bald bald. I was sure that time would be a healer and I'd adjust to being bald in 10 years or so... but now it's already been 12 years and I haven't adjusted one bit. My self-esteem is very low and I think that I'll never be good enough for anyone. I'm in a relationship now but I always feel that it's only a matter of time until she finds out what a loser I really am and dumps me. And this all despite the fact that I'm educated, average looking, in good shape and working full-time in a respected position. Hairloss really is a b**ch.

sorry then. yea you've lost hair since those pics way back when. looks pretty diffuse

So like some of you know I am horribly diffuse NW5-6 but that wasn't so bad... my right temple started really receding a couple of years back and now it's gotten really bad. In a few years time I bet I'll end up a NW5-6 with only a tuft of hair on one temple. Luckily my life isn't otherwise too bad nowadays, despite all my flaws. I've started dating a nice girl who doesn't seem to care about my shortcomings and I'm also working full-time as a electrical engineer. So all is not bad but this hairloss biz still gets me down from time to time. Usually it starts to really bother me when something drastic happens, like this accelerated temple receding.

You're being a bit hard on yourself, I think. Believe me... I used to sound the same as you as I was always convinced that the girl I was with would eventually "find out what a loser I am" and walk away.

Well, guess what? It never happened.

I bet this woman you're with has a vastly different opinion of you then the one you have of yourself.

^ I sure hope she does. One day I'll probably ask her what does she like about me. It would be fun to know. I do know that she thinks that I'm a decent and nice person, but that's it.

For a women in her ?30s, that's probably enough

well you still have a hairline at least, shaved down it probably doesnt look so bad from the front. its not like people are seeing your hair from the top , unless theyre really tall

got a frontal pic? just maintain what you have now you should be alright, and ofc transplants will work a lot better, engineers make good money u shud be able to afford one soon

Yeah I really hope so. She's 34 today and I'll be 36 later this year.

My hairline is a mess, the receding has been going on for a couple of years. I can't maintain what I have 'cause I can't go on DHT suppressing meds again. I got peyronie's and worsening of gyno from finasteride the last time around so that's a no-go for me. I just have to suck it up like I have done so far.

Been pretty depressed about my hairloss the past few days and I decided to take some more pics:

The first one is 3 years back so I guess my hairline has been pretty fucked up for longer than I actually thought. The other one is new and it reveals the true horror of my situation. Lol... can't help but laugh.

You are obviously thinning
However, after buzzing it isn’t as evident
I mean, the hairline hasn’t suffered almost at all

 

[ghg]

Did you check the newer pics? The hairline/temples are going fast .

 

[uncomfortable man]

Thanks for the update!

 

[ghg]

You're welcome UC. How are you doing by the way? I somehow feel a bit better already, I'm just gonna keep it closer buzzed and ride this feeling out. It's not like I haven't known that I'm balding for over 10 years now. I realize that it's ME who it bothers the most, not anyone else.

You have good skin, solid temple points and a well shaped head. Going bald is sh*t but you're in a better position than most to keep it shaved down. Still looks good.

All you need is a bit more density.

That's exactly where it becomes impossible. Solid temple points don't exist anymore either.
