You do realise this is the precise same reason that bald guys cop so much flack?
WE don't look right and our aesthetics annoy the average citizen.
Stop being so fookin petty.
How old are you? 13?

eh just annoyed at how perfect he is, especially because i've been feeling real inferior about my baldness lately.

i think i've realized what zircon was talking about with positive thinking alone not helping at all. someone trash talked my hair and my peace of mind was shattered. my "peace of mind" was really because i live as a fantasy identity that has hair, and the daydream was so built up its almost as if i believed it subconsciously. however, of course the reality is different. once that person reminded me of it it was like waking up from a dream and seeing the thing you had been looking away from

depression is created by a mismatch between environment and expectations. thats why baldness hurts so much, its a tangible thing, it affects your environment by hurting your looks. its not just some expectations issue like with a lot of depressed people.

you can try the slybaldguys "confidence" thing all you want but it doesn't change the REALITY that you are seen as inferior. meanwhile a lot of depressed people just have to change their thoughts and actions, usuallly with CBT. however their reality was always the same

I think Wittgenstein looks great. He looks like a serious intellectual.

For someone who hates the word and doesn't think the meaning of it actually exists, you sure do like to spread it's popularity!

I'm going to trust others on here who say you are an invaluable poster, I can imagine that and I respect it, but literally most of the posts I see from you are half-assed confidence jokes. I'm just wondering, what do you get from this?

I joined this forum on December 13th, 2015.

I consider Hellouser to be one of the best posters.

Among other things, he went to the hair congress and brought back detailed reports. He is knowledgeable on all or nearly all hair-loss treatments available or in development.

hair transplant is way too expensive, its such a long term thing the idea of it doesn't really make me feel better. i'd need a 5 to 10 thousand dollar one just to make it worth my while.

If you're NW6 and in your 20s, it's worth it.

$10,000 is small compared to the cost of a new car, a college degree, or marrying a lesser woman.

Are you employed?

It sucks but you have to finish and move forward with your life.

Let me know if you need any help with math homework, lol.

See if you can get a bank loan for the hair transplant. Some clinics might offer financing. It may help you get a job if you're better looking.

Suck it up man honestly because -- 22 is young and you have a lot of time. Within the next 2 years you can be finished undergrad, have some sort of job, be in better shape and have your hair back and you won't even be 25. That's what you should aim for.

you are being a bit patronizing. if only it was as easy as just "sucking it up". do you really think it's that simple? and 3 years is one hell of a long time to take to get a basic sense of self and peace of mind.

Sorry.

I wish I could back to when I was 22.

How it would not be easy to save 5 to 10 k $ living in US? I've managed to save in 1 year almost 5 k $, and the salaries in Romania are pretty damn low. If you really want something (treating your hair loss), then you must save the money. Just make a plan and go ahead. Yes the very first year after graduating it's hard (or at least for me it was), but after that you can get a better job. And no, not all the employers do care about your hair. If you don't work with customers (face to face)... why would they?

i was wanting to major in computers or technology but i'm not sure at the moment. i was thinking of going into art (mainly digital) but of course there's less job opportunities in that field

Why not combine the two and create video games?
