17 years of suffering and counting

You need to focus your attention on women that have a decent IQ, as they are more willing to give you a chance if you are not some genetically perfect person. And it seems so cheap but confidence does work. Fake it if you have to.

Even women have higher levels of IQ know they live once, but you must be something to attract them. But I do agree with you there is more chance with them. Confidence is a main key.

By no way we (people like to me) will like like to other guys, we wont enjoy life as like many other normal guys. F*ck the destiny.

I am planing to order a elevator shoe. I hope it help!

yes us short guys with hair loss definately did get the shit end of the stick genetically. I was trying to read through other forums and find up lifting advice and i stumbled on some female opions and a whole bunch of females posted that its ok to lose your hair, its better than being short hahaha, wow did i feel like shit. its a good thing i didnt own a gun. I pray that in the next few years some ground breaking discoverys will be made in either cloning or stem cell activation. I think the younger generation has a lot of hope for medications in the next 5 years to come out to stop balding, however its far too late for alot of us folks that are years and years deep in this ****ing shit. Im doing the propecia and rogaine treatments and so far they have not been helping very much and i am praying with all my heart and soul that the pg2 inhibitor drug is going to come to the market in the next couple years and stop the follicle destruction so i can figure out if hair transplants would be a option for me. I have a diffused baldness pattern, it started in the temples then i had a massive shead and it all gets thinner and thinner as the months and years have painfully gone by. If that inhibitor drug comes out and works, and histogen comes out and works, then transplants may be a wonderful option with amazing results...all of my hope rests on that and if someone does better i will sell my house or a kidney to pay for it and live in my car and start life over with confidence for the first time in my life. Its no fair when you lose your hair young, but maybe in the next 10 years there will be real options that will really restore a full head of hair...im hopefull that replicel and aderans will get there shit together in the next 10 years too. The science does work, its just not completely developed for humans yet. I am hopeful, hope is all we have.

That's the genetic kills us painfully gradually!

Hey everyone, im sorta new here. I started balding at the age of 17 and im 34 now. It has been the most difficult road. The depression, low self esteem, anxiety, feelings of inferiority, the moments of ridicule burn in my mind from all the years of carrying out this horrible life sentence. When you begin to lose your hair at a young age its truely devistating and it changed me for the worse. I started drinking heavily in my late teens and doing any drugs i could find. I think it was the lonliness, while all friends i knew were going to college and out on dates i was planing my life with a hat. Im only 5'6 tall also so it makes hairloss so much more worse with everyone always looking down at your head. I have concidered suicide for so many years. I always thought maybe one day there will be a cure, so i could go to school for something that i actually enjoyed and wanted to do, instead of a job i am miserable at, however i am allowed to wear a hat and that is the reason why i work there and the fact i dont have to socially interact with very many people and as a hair loss sufferer that is a golden benefit. Its also nice to be able to cry at work without anyone seeing you. I always heard as you get older it gets easier, i guess some people can deal with it alot better than i have so far. I have held out hope for so many years that this horrible disease could be cured and i could have a chance at a life of happiness and not cowering in the shadows. I guess im having a very bad hairloss life and i am losing hope fast. Its just been too much suffering and i am having a moment of weakness where a hair loss suffer looks back on their life and thinks, is it worth it and should i go on. I am truely tired an exhausted from hairloss, it has claimed my entire life. If anyone reads this, i hope your fight is going better than mine has. I would trade the rest of my life for just a few moments of never knowing the pain and suffering of the hair loss life.

Dude, not to be rude, as I know these things affect people differently, but all I can say is that losing your hair is PERFECTLY NORMAL, and there is absolutely NOTHING to be embarrassed by.

The truth is, you likely are blaming other problems in your personal life and your own perception of yourself on hair loss. What is NOT NORMAL is a bad hair transplant, which can result in everything you mentioned because people try and hide an unnatural look from others.

If you only have hairloss then you need to find a hairstyle that works best for you, perhaps even shaving, lose the hat and face your fears head on. You will be amazed at the weight you throw off your shoulders when you do, and your life will assuredly improve. It sounds like you've wasted enough of your life worrying about your hair, you don't have time to waste any more, start living and stop obsessing!
