If you go for a depression check up, one of the first things they do is ask you to take a survey.

Yeah as one of many tools. I think even in combination these questionnaires are robotic and retarded, on their own they are worthless.
Also it's f*****g weird that you got this result, after describing how utterly hopeless your future is on here and how worthless and inferior you are.

Well, my last questionnaire was over a year ago. I likely do have depression now. But if you're just miserable but have healthy appetite, libido, energy levels and sleep - like miserable guys who work out, such as myself and @Feelsbadman might have - then you will likely be considered not depressed by the questionnaire. I'm in therapy now but I held off for so long because it was always suggested as optional for me after my check ups.

Not my experience, sounds like a horrible questionnaire.
Great, I wish you all the best. I guess it will be a process, don't give up too soon.

OP I refuse to comment anymore on your situation as I feel its s pointless, you are stuck in your ways, you can spend money and time on therapy but if I were you I would use your resources more wisely.
Things in life are not so binary as you think, hair = everything is good, and bald = hopeless. You would be better served to spend that therapy money on the most realistic hair system you can afford and see once and for all is hair the actual root cause of all your problems, or not.
Having bad hair will inevitably bring any man down a point or two on the attractiveness scale, but there are so many other things you can do to mitigate this.
If indeed you fixed everything else within your control, you are fit, you have a well paying job, you have nice teeth and dress well, then your problems are specifically social. You have already, with these accomplishments, put yourself in above average territory.
Your actual problems are, you likely have terrible social skills (sorry to put it bluntly), or have a terrible social circle and have no ways to meet people organically besides terrible dating apps whose algorithms are rigged against you.
People's perception of baldness is very peculiar. I have almost a nearly bald crown and terrible hair as well, and am younger than you. I will be getting a transplant soon to fix this as I kept my donor strong due to five years+ of finasteride use.
However, people don't really perceive me to be bald because my hairline, will diffuse, still frames my face, and with some concealer I can pull off a decent illusion. This is within your realm of possibility, there are elite surgeons who have worked miracles with the combination of weak donors and body (beard) hair transplants for the midscalp and crown areas.
I would invest in some public speaking courses if nothing else to improve on your social skills as well. When was the last time you made someone laugh in a conversation? How many friends do you have?
Accepting blame for one's one situation is not a pleasant experience, no matter what the problem is. It's much easier to find a scapegoat or bogeyman and attribute all problems to that. As an analogy, many people in poorer, third world countries like to blame the government, or the president for their own personal failures.

I had more than one questionnaire experience like this. Recently it seems like whatever depression I have is getting worse and the feeling that I'm getting from the therapist is that they won't be able to resolve my issues very soon; it would need a long course of therapy. Maybe a system is the only way out.
