Dealing with male pattern baldness AND the death of a close loved one

[baldguy28]

Not only am I only 5'8" having to deal with this male pattern baldness sh*t but my father also passed away in September of this past year. I also didn't have a gf to help me cope and no friends because my 2 best ones moved over 500 miles away earlier this past year. Am I maybe the biggest loser on the planet or what? God sure has a f*cked up sense of humor. I'm a white guy and 29 years old by the way. I've tried everything including shaving my head completely but I'm not received well by people and I've been called a loser more than once by people who don't even know me which tells me they are basing it mainly on my appearance. I've tried dealing with all of this without medication but everything is really taking it's toll on me. It's like God decided to completely screw me over for some reason.

I'm sorry to hear about your father.

People are fucked up, which is why you need to learn to not give a f*** about what other people think. I know you're not interested in medications, but why not give an anti-anxiety med a try?

get on a anti-anxiety/depressent.

I feel you man. I don't really have anyone to talk to. I'm younger than you and have already lost BOTH of my parents..

maybe this is why male pattern baldness is taking such a toll on me.

all i can suggest is get tan, get buff talk to people.

male pattern baldness sucks, and were all dealing with it.

re:

I've already gotten buff so that isn't a problem as I work out 3 times a week. As far as tanning goes, I'm not a big fan of salons so I might buy some of that tan in a can stuff as Spring approaches.

I really feel for you man.
What you've posted really puts any problems I might have in the shade.
Working out can be a bit of a solitary activity. I'd suggest doing stuff that puts you in contact with people like hobby classes. You'd be surprised how many people are willing to lend a sympathetic ear, and you'll almost certainly meet someone you like, granted you share the same interest.

I am in a similar position as you

life sucks, and this male pattern baldness curse comes and destroys whats' left of our miserable lives......

i can totally relate man. life can be pretty brutal sometimes.

maybe consider getting some counseling. i recently started seeing a psycologist and its seems to be helping me. i had taken anti-depressants in the past and they helped a bit, but sometimes you need a professional to help you sort through your problems.
