I'm 23.5 and first noticed that my hair was thinning about five months ago. As of now, no one would say I'm bald or even balding. This is frustrating in its own right. I mean, I know it's happening, and the few people I've told (or confided in) have said that I'm imagining it. Even just this last weekend, my ex-girlfriend was visiting (she's still in school), and she said "you're not balding, but you are crazy." That is what is so upsetting about this whole thing: even though hair loss is not fatal, it is similar to a terminal illness in the sense that the suffer knows his terrible fate in advance. It's like God is saying "Not only do I have something shitty in store for you, but I'm going to make you watch it happen in slow motion."
What makes it worse is that my family has no history of baldness on either side. Hair loss is the one thing I figured I would never have to worry about.
Enough whining. I started Propecia at the end of January 2004 against the wishes of my family. I bought T-Gel and Nizoral and haven't missed a dosage of finasteride 1 mg or a hair washing since 1 AB (after balding, day 1). Unfortunately, I can't say much has changed; my cowlick is a bit bigger and both sides of my head have continued to thin.
Ugh, this f*****g blows. I moved to NYC and expected it to be amazing. It has been. But I can't stop thinking about this sh*t. Every f*****g minute. I see bald guys walking around and it makes me sick. I can't bic my head, I'd look like an ugly pasty big headed freak.
Anyway, this site has been great and entertaining. I don't know any of you, but for some reason your posts are comforting. Although, I wish the negatives were counterbalanced by some positive results.
That's why I've made a promise to myself. If Propecia kicks in and works for me I will sing praises to the gods in Merck above glorifying their sweet concotion. And post many inspirational posts. Nothing so far.
Good luck, guys. Seriously. Hope (and scientific data) is the best thing this site offers.
