19 - Losing hair and depression

[pabloes]

Hi i'm 19 and i think i inheriditared my father's alopecia. I've always noticed that my hair falls pretty easily but this last two weeks have been terrible, everytime i comb My hair with My hand i notice two or three hairs and it's terrible for me, it's a really bad hit to my confidence and it sucks because Ive always struggled with it but recently I was such in a happy place and then boom, baldness shows up.
I have clinical depression and it's a really bad fight I'm in right now, I have a dermatologist appointment in a week and I'm going to ask her about Minoxidil and Finasteride. I have hope for the future but I'm really scared, what do y'all think?

There are a lot of success stories, even if you are balding, your fate is not doomed.
Fin worked for me. A lot of people here were in the same situation as you.

Try to be optimistic and I wish you all the best.

I really want to support you. You are still very young and everything will certainly be fine. There are many reasons for hair loss. There can be not only physical, but also psychological. What do you think how many hugs we need a day I am sure hugs are very important for every person, without exception. I managed to get rid of the stress thanks to the hug. I have also been treated with text therapy. Do you know something about this?
