I can relate
After years of wearing my hair in a tight clip, last year to my horror I discovered I had scratched a patch out of the back, so became a woman with a bald spot! I had hair transplant surgery just under a month ago, and am a pile of nerves waiting for the hair to grow in. I definitely had suicidal thoughts. I didn't think hair loss could affect people so much, but boy it sure does! Please hang in there! Have you been trying anything to address your hair loss issues?

I wish I would have seen this post earlier. You found the best place on earth to talk about your hair loss! When I first found the Bald Truth the one lesson that helped to heal me is when Spencer Kobren said, “there is life after hair loss” and “that we are not alone in this.” Those two phrases have changed my view and have changed my life. You can get past this and you can win this battle!
You should call Spencer on his show and speak with him. He has a way of putting everything into perspective for us.

As much as I am ashamed to admit it, I too have felt similar emotions towards the slow torture that is hair loss.
This may sound an extreme view but its exactly how I feel towards it. Sometimes I just wish it would all fall out overnight and spare me this gradual descent into a more intense depressive state.
Who would have thought that a lack of simple keratin could cause us so much misery eh?
I feel like a freak show walking down the street.... Come on God take the f***ing lot and lets get it over with!

Guys
All the sympathy in the world. I know how you feel.
Im 50, and I am FINALLY over my hair loss. I started losing it at 15, sophomore year in school.
I shave my head now. I own my own business and make great money. Im married. Now, things are good. Not so in high school and college.
Everything, and I mean everything, that happened in my day was related to my hairloss. I too wanted to end it. I think it was because I had no control over what was happening.
No control AND hair was HUGELY IMPORTANT in the 80's. Check out the rock bands in those years compared to now....notice any difference? Today hair loss, baldness and shaving is MUCH more excepted, even though its still not something anyone would want.
There are tons of hideous sad stories I could tell you, but the biggest point is this. I LET MY BALDNESS CONTROL, UTTERLY CONTROL MY LIFE. WHAT I THOUGHT, WHAT I DID, WHAT I WANTED TO DO, WHAT I HAD TO DO...EVERYTHING. EVERY EFFIN THING. I hate baldness like it was a person. BUt, ulitmately I did all the lonliness to myself.
So, you guys have to figure out what OPTIONS you have and which you can live with. Look, work hard, make a ton of cash and boom, your biggest problem with hair loss, women, will be over......come to think of it, cash solves most problems. But that avenue is up to you. Shave, develop a great body, or career....all this HELPS overcome this bitch. Find a bit of peace in knowing its not the leprosy it was 30 years ago, and science HAS given you a few option.
Don't do what I did.
