    Hairloss just makes it unable to plan your life or to enjoy anything

    I'm not exactly sure why I was singled out, but I can tell you that throughout that time, I was intent on fighting my hairloss, and even when it seemed hopeless, I refused to accept defeat, and living a compromised lifestyle where I had to alter my ideals to be happy. 2008-2010 were the worst...

    Hairloss just makes it unable to plan your life or to enjoy anything

    I hear ya. When my hairloss was at its worst in 2009, and into 2010, it just killed my spirit. I couldn't fully invest in anything emotionally, without the joy being sucked out due to hairloss. My favorite team won the World Series, but every time I would smile and celebrate, that little voice...

    Women below 30 are shallow, and balding is unattractive. Deal with it.

    I have found quite the opposite to be true. Aesthetically speaking, women have their preferences as to what they desire, but what they say they want, and what they actually want often don't correlate. Their attraction is like a mechanism, and it is not triggered by looks. Despite their words...

    i think the worst aspect of hair loss

    I really can't imagine eating much more, or wanting to for that matter. Am I supposed to eat 2 large pizzas in one sitting rather than 1? In my early 20s I used to regularly come home loaded, eat a large pizza, and then pass out. When I'd wake up, my stomach would be sunken in and growling...

    i think the worst aspect of hair loss

    I've tried weights and just about everything else. I think with my frame, it'd probably be impossible to bulk up. What I have is as toned as can be, I just can't put any additional weight on. I eat 3 to 4 thousand calories per day and it's not enough because I am always hungry, and still...

    i think the worst aspect of hair loss

    I often hear "Just shave it" as advice. If only it were as simple as that for everyone. Not all of us have a headshape suitable for shaving. I mean, not only do I have a head shape that would look terrible bald, but I'm tall and severely underweight, even though I eat far more than the average...

    i think the worst aspect of hair loss

    I've felt this way also. My early 20s were amazing, I lived them to the fullest because while my hair was thinning, I still had a thick head of hair and a good hairline, and would still receive compliments. By my mid 20s, I still went out and had fun, but was starting to feel a bit stagnant...

    anyone here have a period of denying hair loss at first?

    Oh yeah, definitely. When I was 20, I noticed that my bangs would no longer obscure my eyes (I have long hair), but I just attributed this to my hair being much longer (mid back length) than it was when I was in my teens where it was chin length. Then as it started to look thinner in the...

    the biggest pain of hair loss for me is BODY IMAGE, not b****s

    I agree 100 percent. The reason that I can't get girls is because my confidence is shot, and my body language is terrible. In my early 20s, I worked so hard on all of this and began to have success, and a few years later the hairloss kicked in and just totally skewed the way that I view myself...

    I lost my fiance because of this and women no longer want me

    I hate this public mentality of bald men are supposed to "man up" and accept their hairloss and all of the criticism and mockery that comes with it, and they're vein cowards if they try to do anything to counter it.

    likelihodd of misdiagnosis

    I'd imagine it is pretty low, but I am one of the exceptions. I was diagnosed as having "classic" male pattern baldness and handed a prescription for Propecia. I ended up going the natural route (no, not snake oils, but a rather unconventional, little known process) and it has stopped my hairloss. I haven't...

    Why can't you all just accept the truth?

    That's all b.s. You have to learn to disregard what women say when it comes to what they want, because they don't know what they want themselves. If what they said were true, they'd all have a "nice guy" on their arm and all of the ##$holes would be trying to do nice deeds for them in order to...

    The media is driving me insane

    That's all open for speculation, but I was just the best man in my friend's wedding. He's been with his fiance/wife for over 5 years now, another friend got married last year who had been with his wife since 2004, and yet another friend got married 2 years ago, and they had already been together...

    The media is driving me insane

    It certainly does reflect true life, at least those around me. I don't watch much tv, but I deal with the same thing around me. All of my friends are getting married and starting families. I'm invited to the weddings and baby showers and I hear about it all on Facebook, the few who haven't...

    Don't worry they said, we will get your hair back they said.

    Yep, sounds familiar. I have had long hair since I was 15, and am now 29 years of age. My hair used to be so incredibly thick that I would get it thinned, and always envied those with fine, manageable hair and I would always be assured "At least you won't go bald". In addition to getting it...
