    Default Facing my fears, and going back to the mall today even with my Norwood 7 baldness

    I must face this fear.

    I know that I have to try and move on with life, even though I cannot come up with any solution for hair loss.

    I WILL go back to the same mall, and walk the entire mall in a circle and loop.

    Hell yeah. Just don't go into any toy stores.

    The more you train yourself that going out in public doesn't produce the perceived fears you have, the sooner you will have built up a buffer against your anxieties and it won't be as hard anymore.

    Good luck.

    What other choice is there? I mean bald or not you have to keep going forward. I mean there is hope that there will be better treatments and a cure eventually. Just live and forget about it. A good attitude and just trying to be a likeable person can really make up for being bald honestly. Humor goes a long ways.

    Finished my goal.

    pros:
    -I entered the mall and did an entire round both upper and bottom floor. I sat in the bookstore coffee section also for 30 minutes to read.

    cons:
    -One guy literally stared at me for a long gaze looking at me, then my hair loss, then me again. It was sooooooo uncomfortable. He was also with his girlfriend.
    -Was not able to approach any women
    - Felt really old and that the Norwood 7 horseshoe pattern was getting to me.

    Why can't you just wear a hat?

    Maybe he thought you were cute.

    I feel like I'm hiding if I do that.
