There's no going back, is there.

Dude, you think you have it bad. I'm way way way worse off than you. I'm much older than you. I have nothing. Never could get any education because of many problems in my life including self-esteem. I'm an intelligent person and I know I had a lot of potentials if I didn't have all the shit in my life. That's why I feel so angry and bitter. I'm not a "loser" by choice. You HAVE time to change directions in your life. I DON'T. The best years of my life are behind me and I never got to enjoy one ****ing damn day of them. Not even one. And I barely make enough to survive and the future looks very bleak for me.

If they come up with this "promised" treatment for this god damn curse (hair loss) in the next 3-4 years you'll still be in your late 20's. Even if it takes 10 years you'll be in your 30's, which is still not too bad.

Anyway, H&W arent NOT the most expensive doctors, man. I found their prices to be lower than all the others I've been too (in the USA). I remember paying 2 1/2 times to the bastards at Bosley back in '99.


I don't know. Maybe you can go back to school - IF YOU DON'T HAVE REASONS THAT PREVENT YOU LIKE I HAD- and study something else. Life without money isn't life. It's just like being in a labor camp. No, it's much much worse.

But yeah, life is NOT fair. Life is cruel.

I apologize if my moment of weakness appears insultingly maudlin. I didn't mean to offend anyone, and I do realize that my situation is nowhere near the worst. This board is, to me, a safe place to let out feelings we've all experienced, but have no opportunity to voice in our daily lives.

I went through this shit also when I first came here...

****ing hair loss. I have come to grips with it now though. My regimen worked and my hair improved a bit... but if it got worse I don't know what would have happened.

Whynot, no nobody is offended. You didn't say anything offending or bad. I'm just saying you're probably in a better situation than many others. I think the least advantage you have over some -like me- is the age. While I'm not over the hell or anything, I still don't have the opportunities that someone your age has. Even by the time u're 28, the best years of your life aren't behind you.
And when it comes to hair loss, there's a better chance that you might be still considered young when they finally come up with some damn treatment, that is unless those MFs really **** up and fail again in producing anything useful or they just keep saying "in the next 5-10" like they have been doing for the past 20 years.

But one thing I do understand -and most people dont- is that each one of us sees his problem as the biggest and most important problem there is. So, I do understand your despair. I just hope that histogen or whoever just come up with something good in the next couple of years or we're all screwed.
