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...?

dwi out

- Shave my head every week
- Worrying about my upcoming hair transplant
- Thinking about baldness a good part of my day

That's all for now. I guess I lose.

Actually, it sounds like you are winning, Fred. Not winning most neurotic is winning.

Never looked back but you spend time on an Impact of Hair Loss forum. If my mindset changed and I never looked back, I wouldn't be spending time on a hir loss forum, especially the impact one.

You probably wouldnt be here fair does but im not here for me im here to help others (i mean this is where people who need help is right?)...its just a forum dude it takes a few minutes out of a long day to either read or post or like the situation im in now (night time) where its not like im wasting any time when posting/reading because its night time...but by all means believe what you want...like i said before sorry for having a heart.

Danny seems like a good guy. This place can be a bit of a shark tank sometimes for him.

I will agree to a point BUT when you walk into an impact forumn you have to assume these guys are just in a nasty mood, and posting the worst thoughts. If the eskimo doesnt want your ice the first day he's probably not the rest of the week either. I often wonder if hes really trying to help or "IF" coming and thinking he's helping is actually just a way he can interact with those who he thinks feel worse off than him for his own therapy. Im not trying to be nasty but its just an observation.

I mean the word "IMPACT" is there so generally that would translate to "IM IN A SH***** MOOD!"

Well im in the "impact" part cause well im not going to be able to find people to help in a place where they are all fine like lets say slybaldguys am i?...there is no reason to lie in a place like this when we all in the same boat (bald,balding)...this place would of been great for me from 16 to 18 to "rant"...but to me and im most probably wrong i feel when some (keyword here SOME) say this about me it is cause they are still wrapped up in their own depressed thoughts so everything they see is negative and seen the wrong way cause how they feel or been treated etc etc...maybe they cant come to grips with someone dealing with it better i dont know if i was 16 and i was here and there was a guy trying to help us i would feel so happy not negative towards him.

Nothing wrong asking stuff like "then why you here if you fine" thats understandable but when someone repeats it and i have time and time again explained why im here to him,her it makes me wonder i just simply want to help (or atleast try) cause i been there with the negative feelings about baldness is this really such a crime?...thing is my head is not perfect dents and pointy bits i look at it and it looks like a 50p (lol) and i admit im not fond of its not the best look i look at it and think ew thats weird (my OCD sometimes makes it worse otherwise i think nothing of it) but what can i do?...we need to move on guys moaning wont take away my weird head or any of your problems...im not gonna comment for awhile so cya for now.

I do not have hairloss to the extent some of you do. I do however know what it's like to have bad skin and obsess in a mirror. Accutane cleared me but not before getting scars. It use to depress me.

My skin cleared up after use of Accutane. I took milk thistle for my liver. I supplement to compensate for the damage done as a side effect. Due to male pattern baldness, Accutane, and dht, my hair line is pronounced. I stopped Accutane 4months instead of 5 while on 80mg. Prior to meds, I used holistic nutrition, dieting, and fitness. It helped but, I was a break out away from being moon face. I chose accutane.

Fast forward to today. My life isn't perfect. I lost my dad and sis in a drunk driving accident. Hearing about Paul walker made me sad. I saw flash backs. I still struggle. I got Into a trade. I do a trade school too. I went home with a girl the other day. :D

Self love is a start..

the positive is that you guys are accepting that you are obsessed, and the negative to me is that you people are "Obsessed'. Why? Does all that counts in your personality and life is "LOOKS" ?

yea exactly

being able to fit in in general is important when you are younger

also being able to go out without being looked at for looking 10 years older than you are

however id say the identity killing is the most soul crushing aspect of hair loss
