You think your life sucks?

[90kids]

I am 19 yrs old.
-My mother was involved in a fatal car accident(2months ago).R.I.P
-Father passed away when i was 15.
the only family i have is an aunt who lives in the UK (that i personally know of)(besides family friends)(step siblings).
I live with room mates barely can afford rent + food + Transportation.
I go to University of Waterloo.
I am not on any hairloss medications like propecia or minoxodil because i simply cannot afford it period.
Basically i can't afford to treat my hair loss, both parents have passed away. I have learned your friends are really buddies because they'll ditch you any chance they get . Since my hairloss i have lost all aspects of my social life(friends). I dread going back to school in the fall. I work part time to support myself which is not enough.

My hairloss story:http://www.hairlosstalk.com/interact/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=45057

I really do feel like committing suicide because my life has had a 180 degree turn since all of the life events. I feel hopeless, i have never been given a break, I cry myself to sleep alot because of all this bullshit. I have had so many negative thoughts in my head that i have never had. I am just saying if i am gone who will miss me? why keep suffering..

I can't even type for sh*t without even shaking or something jesus fcukin christ,

Hey man I know how you feel. Im sorry for your misfortunes. But suicide is NOT the answer. You need to stand up now and be a man. Its not the hair the defines a man. Its his attitude, the never say die attitude and general outlook on life.You just need to look at this hairloss thing from another perspective, in 5 years it appears that Hair cloning will be available. This means they will be able to transplant DHT resistant follicles back into place and your hair will thicker than it was before birth!

You're only young now, but in 5-10 years when this happens you will still be young, then you can finally live life the way you always wanted. Until then get revenge by concentrating on your studies and get a kick *** job with good money and working out at the gym and getting a really good body. Just shave the head man. It will liberate you. It will help motivate you. Good luck.

Ps: Also remember when you think you have it bad, there is always someone out there that has it x10 times worse than you in so many ways. Just some food for thought.

You're healthy thats the main thing.

I feel sorry for you dude but like metelheaddude says DON'T KILL YOURSELF BECAUSE YOU HAVE SO MUCH TO LIVE FOR! You are only 19 and you will eventually get over your loss. Keep doing your studies and get a good job and you'll realise that you've got lots to live for.

Good luck

I think you are on the wrong forum. After reading your post, ppl still comment on how hairloss won't be a problem down the road. I think you have bigger reasons to cry yourself to sleep such as loss of your mother, no family, financial issues, etc. Hope you are able to get qualified help. I'm sorry, but surfing a hair loss forum should be the last thing on your mind.

I'm sorry for your misfortunes.

 

[ITNEVERRAINS]

HM will be here in 5-7 years, you'll have a degree and a job by then. So by the time your 30 you'll be making bank and will have a healthy mane will virtually none of the crap most of us have had to go through with hair transplant scars, man boobs, loss of libido, some permanent. I am very sorry for your losses. Accept the past, live in the present, look forward for the future.

90skid, you are not alone. there was a whole thread recently posted about suicide on the hairlosshelp.com forums, link below, and here is an exerpt:

"I know it sounds pathetic to a lot of people but Ive been thinking about suicide everyday for pretty much the last year and a half. Over the last year and a half my hairloss is starting to get really bad, Ive developed a vericocele in my left testicle(swollen ugly vain that can lead to testicular atrophy and infertility), pearly penile papules (ugly looking white spots on the head of my dick which doctors say is not a disease so I should just get over it), sebaceous prominence on the shaft of my dick which doctors also say is not a disease and I should just get over it, and weird chunky sperm. And I thought it was bad enough for myself just dealing with the hairloss.. This stuff is all very noticeable and it has utterly obliterated my confidence. Im 26 years old and am living with my parents. I havent had sex in four years. I have no car. I have no college education. I work a pathetic job at starbucks. Ive only gone out to hang with some friends ONCE in the past year and a half.

Ive lost contact with all my friends. I doubt they even care about me anymore since I never return phone calls, which is understandable. I dont want to tell them whats bothering me. Theyll just think Im weak and pathetic for getting so effected by physical things. Every day I feel like im going more and more insane. I feel completely disconnected with life; its such a scary feeling. I dont have the desire to listen to music, read, play drums, all stuff I used to enjoy. When it comes to having a conversation I have literally nothing to say anymore. All I do is drink every day, watch tv, and smoke ciggarettes. I feel like a bum.

I keep telling myself to "man up" and just start exercising, get in touch with my friends again, start researching different careers, etc. But I just dont feel like there is any energy or drive in me anymore. My depression/anxiety is starting to turn into anger and bitterness but Im trying to steer myself away from that although its very difficult. What the f*ck is the point in living this life if every day is utter hell?

I dont mean to hijack this thread from you, my point is to just let you know you are not a lone in your feelings of helplessness. I don't really have any advice for you, as I am looking for answers myself, but just trying to offer some company. I think we just have to keep on living and try to make the best decisions that we can and hopefully things will get better. Suicide doesn't really solve anything even though it might seem like the only way to end the pain. Im really trying to convince myself of this.

So anyways, "

As for the treatments being too expensive, there are cheaper alternatives: Proscar cut into 4, Finpecia, and Fincar cut into 4 (which would be the cheapest finasteride, as far as I know).

 

[antonio666]

that story made me sad,the guy has it real hard i know from experience what it is like to lose a parent but this guy lost both and hee is suffering hairloss at a young age.

these kind of stories make me realise that there is no god because no god would make a young man suffer like this

 

[HatPrisoner91]

This sounds very sad if true. I don't think someone can just give some of the advice being given. This is a very specific type case. I hope things improve. At the very least, find someone to be close with. I'm not saying it will. I just hope it does.

 

[90kids]

I really don't know what to do in life. I lost everything i ever had in life. I dread going outside because it feels like people stare at me and i don't know why.
I am appreciative of the pm's and posts i have received.
within the past 5-6months i know i am not the same person i was. I have been up for the past 22hours or so straight. Everytime i look in the mirror i see that reeceded hairline and the bald spots that have made me age, i have lost my youth.

The only advice i have received was to possibly join the some sort of army/military.
I just wish my f*****g hair would be normal and i still had my mother. I never ask for much in life.

Those of you who are in for the long run, I wish you the best luck and hopefully your chase for a cure will be solved.
I'll try to stay strong.

Hey dude, the first thing you need to do is to hit the gym! Trust me, I was feeling like this - no freinds, crap job, no car etc and then I started the hit the gym and felt so much better about myself. Life can be hard and only you can make the effort to get out of this rut.

I wish you the best of luck

90kids just think that you have nothing to lose more only to gain. I think you're going to be really happy. At least you're struggling for it.

 

[uncomfortable man]

Your parents would have wanted you to stay in school and keep working and not give up. Keep honoring your parents by staying on the right path. You are so young and although you cant see it right now, there are good things in your future. Hold on.

90kids:

My Dad passed away 3 weeks ago from MRSA, big cover up in Chase Farm and Barnet hospital... am still ridden with guilt on why I couldnt save him or if I could have done more.

But you know one thing that am sure our folks would have wanted from us ?

To enjoy life to the best we can, I am 100% sure our dad/mums although they went early would have wanted us to just enjoy life to the full.

I started to loose my hair @ 19-20 and was front bald by 22-23 and while m8s nicknamed me front baldness I just gave them there own nicknames appropriately

But this is life and hey am still not sure if there really is a god or a heaven/hell or is our souls move on to heaven, and if theres nothing beyond our own deaths then why not go mad and enjoy life?

Moneys important always, get a part time job or finish the education best u can or if u cant manage, drop it and work full time anyware.

Anyway try to enjoy life... am gonna make adjustments in my life to enjoy it !

 

[ali777]

Dude,

I'm not British, but I've been in the UK for some time now and I know the cost of life around here.

To be honest, hairloss treatment isnt as expensive as you think it is. You can get finasteride online that will cost you less than £10 a month, and minoxidil for about £6-7 a month. That's £16 a month.

When you consider the fact that you pay a few hundred pounds a month for rent down in Waterloo, £16 doesn't sound much. The same cost as 5 pints.

Besides, you have a full life in front of you. You need to get yourself together, and look forward to the future.
