I don't know why really, one minute I feel totally cool about it and I'm like "yeah I'll just apply all this stuff and work out this HUGE fantastic regimen and fix everything!" and the next I just... I feel bummed that it's even happening. I worry in case I did it to myself with stress or whatever, I mean I know that's hard to prove and everything... who knows eh?
And I didn't know, I mean I had no idea why guys lost their hair, that me having thick hair was no defense against it, hell I didn't even fully acknowledge the extent to which it happens so much more to guys than gals! All I thought was "meh, whatever, I'll have thick, strong, italian hair FOREVER"...
Ugh how can I have been so dumb and naive and stupid?
Thing is with me, I feel so young in my head often, and so I guess I just feel like I'm immune to all the problems of the adult world sometimes! It's like I hit... I dunno... 17 or something, and then a certain part of my brain just STOPPED maturing! lol
Not in a bad way, I like it, and I mature in many other ways, it's just I always have this weird, bouncy youth about me! lol
Oh well! I hope it never goes ^_^
But anyway... yeah, so hair loss sucks ***. I hope it's just stress and it will come back by itself like the hair clinic and therapist guy said (I bumped into him on a chat room, he deals with people with stress and similar issues), I mean that's BOTH professionals I spoke to both said if it's stress (and even possibly if it's diet) it will probably come back by itself.
God knows, but I'm going on finasteride and all that anyway, mild doses, just in case! I hate the receding hairline corners and thinning hair, it sucks!
But, I know I couldn't have hoped to be immune to things like this forever. I'm a guy, and this was ALWAYS on the cards as a possibility.
My hair is so important to me, and I was in a mess of tears twice about all this a couple of weeks ago. I know that for a lot of guys it's not as much of a biggie (many guys I meet don't seem to care they're losing hair) but for me, it's a part of ME! It's part of my identity, it's like a limb!! hehe
And I will fight tooth and nail to keep it!!
