Let's Say Hair Loss Is "cured" In 2018, How Will You Look Back Upon Your Balding Years

[sisenegonan]

Hairloss in younger ages (13-15) causes everyone to treat you like sh*t. In turn you think the world is sh*t.

Sorry but the trauma/upbringing you've had as a teen will stay with you for life. Even if I were to get my hair back, it won't change anything in me. The sole purpose for me would be to gawk myself in the mirror and having the victory feeling of defeating an enemy/clearing the final boss in a stage.

I'll see it (and I already see it that way to an extent) as a great life lesson.

I've grown from it, and yes, you need hardships to grow in life and to be prepared for the worst.

Hair loss was the worst, nothing I'll face in life will even be remotely as difficult as going through the hair loss nightmare.

People can say that such a horrible experience is not needed and scoff at me, then their wives leave them and they're like "this is the worst thing ever! I want to die!"

Lol. Not if you've been through hair loss at a young age. Of course you need to fix it, to get out of it to reap the rewards. Remaining bald just makes it pointless suffering, and we all know what we do to terminally ill people who are pointlessly suffering.

There is always hope. Something is better than nothing. Some hair is better than no hair.

Well spoken

you know my philosophy is you can't have pleasure without pain. just like if you take opiates, you get the pleasure, but you must also have the pain through withdrawal. and when you are deep in withdrawal, taking opiates gives you that much more pleaure.

same thing with hair. when i had a NW1 i didn't think about it, didn't care about it. if I suddenly woke up tomorrow with a NW1, i would be like in the simpsons episode where Homer gets his hair back (he runs through his village laughing and saying good morning to everyone).
i would smile and flirt with every girl i came across. I would be bittter over my lost years but thankful about the lesson that having a NW1 is such a difference.

A reward without hard work and suffering won't be as valuable as a reward that you got by hard work. It also teaches you disipline and responsibility because you wouldn't want to lose the thing you suffered like sh*t to get. At the end of the day, ungrateful, spoild brats exist because they get everything without doing anything.

psychotics, and admitted to a mental health institution.

good every day experience, easy to accomplish with the wrong genes.

Curious title for the thread. I think if cure happened this year, how one would look forward to their future would be more relevant to their lives. Despite noticing my temples receding at 17 and a slow burn to N5 after 50, balding never got in the way of what I wanted to have in life. Just lucked out I guess. So looking back, it's like, "meh". Looking forward though, it's like having my head look like I feel, and my body looks - younger. Which can about be interpreted as a second life ready to begin.

I think there's a chance something could work out in 2018, depends if shesido are successful in a few months

I saw some people here saying they would sacrifice a leg or something to get their hair back and you think that being in debt is that hard and would stop them ?

some people on a forum said they would do something extreme in a hypothetical situation? that will for sure be congruent with reality. because the members here on hair loss talk are known for their fearlessness and honesty.

@Stanx22
I'm just curious what would your reaction be to a effective hair loss treatment or cure?

Ignore the price and everything else how far would that go to solving your problems? Would it give you the confidence to go and tackle some of your other problems(Your self proclaimed 2/10 status, living in a third world country, SA, etc) and improve your quality of life?

It wouldn't make my life magically perfect like many members here claim, but it would honestly give me a lot of peace of mind and confidence and it would motivate me to become better.

Right now, the problem that is driving me to insanity, is intense and constant brain fog.

I almost lost all of my intelligence and my memory is non-existent now and headaches never go away. I'm also always tired, sleepy, and fatigued and i feel detached from reality and not alive.

It's honestly as bad as hair loss or maybe worse in my case.

What's brought on the brain fog? Is it from propecia or unrelated?

Unrelated, it came out of nowhere. Maybe it's a symptom of depression.

how long have you had this? i had headaches, brainfog, couldn't spell, it turned out to be an infection. you taken your temperature? (obviously if you have had this for months it probably isn't an infection)

I have had it for nearly a year now. I can't control my brain or think of anything at all. It like my brain is vague and completely blank, also my memory is non-existent. It bothers the sh*t out of me because i'll never be good at my studies no matter how hard i try and i want to improve myself and research a lot of things, but i can't. I'm completely mentally crippled. I would rather be bald young and have my brain back tbh. I neither feel like a human at this point, nor even like a living being.

 

[Cue Bald]

damn man that sucks, i bet going to a doctor would be a waste of time too as they'd just blame depression. maybe try ADHD meds?

tbh when i have bad depression my thoughts are crystal clear (which is why strong sedatives help)
