I am leaving the forum but I'll challenge you beforehand.
- running hands through hair to see if it feels thinner or thicker than the time before every 5 minutes (serious).
- mirrorwise i'm down to about 5 times a day cause each time gets more depressing, and i part my hair different ways to see if it looks better and i can pretend i am not balding. i also try to see if ive receded more like every time...
- using minoxidil up to 4 times a day and literally all over the top of the head.
- having more than 1000 pics of my progressing hair loss (deleted them one day cause it was too depressing, now i only got like 20, where i try to make my hair look better than it really is to try and fool myself into thinking my balding hasn't got worse).
- going to 2 shrinks and being admitted to mental hospital over hair loss, and fighting with family at least once (up to 3) times a day over hair loss.
- hiding inside instead of getting drunk, while spending hours on a stupid hair loss forum or reading informative sites about hair loss and dht, treatments and hair transplant, blah blah blah, looking for a miraculous advice I never find, despite going to the same sites like 25 times.
- spending literally every waking moment thinking of hair loss (hard not to when its so rapid and accompanied my constant scalp pain). Sometimes even dreaming of it (when i can sleep, i have insomnia). When I say literally every waking moment i am not exaggerating. I put all my effort into hair loss and fighting my way through everything for a solution that never comes so I just rant.
- looking at everyones hair, including women and children.
and let me just add i know the norwood scale steps by heart and memory, also the ludwig scale. pathetic. and also i have plucked hair off my scalp, normal and growth, to lay them out on a white surface and compare the diameter to see if they are miniaturised (they were). and also spending up to an hour doing my hair with soo many products and teasing and you name it, only to having it go flat 20 mins later and doing the process again and then it just ends up a sticky mess from the product. if i ever go out i never leave without two hair brushes, multiple hairties and clips and at least 2 volume products. even then im always afraid and fixing my hair or whats left of it.
i think you met your match. the award for most hair obsessed person goes to...?
