Hey. I always thought it would be bad news once I posted here. I told myself it would mean I had lost the fight.
I have been coming on this board for well over a year a year and a half now, ever since a friend had pointed out that something looked different about my hair. It's weird because there were so many signs. I just graduated from college in May. even in my freshman year there were signs. my hair just didnt seem the same, but i always thought iw was just unhealthy, or my hair was cut differently.
The thing is, i started diffusing back then and it became apparent my junior year. I started freaking out about it. came on this board and learned alot. Eventually I got on Propecia after my junior year (two summers ago). i was almost convinced it wouldnt work then. I'd spend nights and nights on the internet, or in front of my bathroom mirror obsessing. I've always had major stress, and bad depression, but just when things started gettin okay, this happened. so i went back off the deep end. i had a bad health scare too last year which probably didnt help much with my stress. i'm always stressed, but i know this doesnt cause male pattern baldness.
But does it set it off? This post is long and erratic, i know and am sorry. but i'm flippin out. I've always worn my hair a certain way. used to be 1964 beatles. still is kind of, but thin as hell on top. you can now tell that I'm balding. I've been on propecia for 16 months now. NOTHING!! Tried minoxidil fall of last year, couldnt handle the way it made my hair look. I don't want to shave my head. I did that before i was balding and it looked miserable. I"m at my wits end, freaking out. I want my hair back. the depression is returning, everything is going to sh*t. i have always been preoccupied with the way my hair looked, before all of this, so losing it is kind of like a warping of self identity. I dont know what to do. Is nizoral 1% worthless? How do I get the 2%
Help. Breakdown happening
