you know what's funny?

[Exodus2011]

Is that before baldness my biggest issue was that I was a forever alone and that I had no REAL excuse to be one. But since baldness has come, now I DO have a real excuse 8O

i guess you could say it is a legitimate positive of baldness 8O

sure I feel as if it is completely impossible now, but at the same time I don't feel guilty about being a loser anymore. it is simply natural, a genetic destiny if you will.

there is a reason my dad only had kids with an asian woman at fu%&%ing 38. i should have realized earlier that those two things are foreboding, the fact that it took him till late 30s to have kids and with an asian woman.

Shiiiit, I also realise that I am just destined to be a ****ing loser. I am 5'8 , and I suck at sports. I was always bullied until the age of 15. It is just that at 15 I somehow got cool, and the 15-20 years old was the best time in my life, I was successful, I had hot girlfriends, I had so much fun, I was the life of party. And well, I guess that is what I'm not destined for. The hair loss came here to remind me where I belong. I'm being thrown back to my place where I will be bullied about my ****ing bald head, my confidence will go back to where it was when I was being bullied, and I will again be stupid at school, because I will not think about anything else, except my hair, my life, and that I am being laughed at.
No matter what you do, if youŗe destined to be a loser, life will find a way to make it stay that way.

Unfortunately, Toms, life is never an easy ride. For some reason, your letting your "looks" dictate your life. Looks fade. Just remember that. You have your youth no matter what you look like. That is one of the most precious things in life in my opinion. Don't blow it. There are plenty of women that fall madly in love with the "underdogs". So don't think losing some hair is going to blow that chance. You know nothing about life at this point. Its all a game and you have to play it with whatever cards you are dealt. Just remember, its the end that counts. If you really think a NW1 guarantees you a perfect life, you are very well mistaken. Its your ambition, your attitude, ability to communicate, self-discipline, determination, and competence that will all boost your confidence and help you get the most out of life. If you don't believe in this you will fail no matter what even with a full head of hair.

There is no way I'm giving up just yet.

It is just that this summer tight before I started university. I was also quite depressed because of the school and how will it be. And I just thought always that damn, I'm unlucky. I always have some kind of STUPID, not cool, but STUPID trouble. Since last year I have this few thousand euro debt on my shoulders, not because I took a loan. Because I was intoxicated and did a little bit of a damage to one car. Turns out the part that needs to be replaced costs more than I thought. Like 40 times more than I thought.

And I just can't think of life beyond hair loss, I have alot of **** still hanging on my shoulders, it's just that the hairloss is the heaviest one. Such a hard time. And I broke up with my hot girlfriend before both of these things happened. I hope she doesn't find out how I'm doing right now.

Glad to hear you are not giving up. You seem like a smart guy who I think will eventually rise to top. Just keep your head up at all times. Don't get too obsessed with forums like this and concentrate on your education as that will be your first ticket to a great financial future that will buy you a new head of hair and so many other things. Just remember there is always casualty in war but as long as you fight you can win any war you battle. Good luck to you.

well said.

Point taken.

lol growing up I always thought height would be what set me back because my parents are pretty small. mum 5'2 and dad is 5'4
i thought i won the genetic lottery when i grew to 5'11 and I had about a year to enjoy that before hair loss kicked in

My parents are also really short, 5'1 and 5'5, but I grew to 5'10-5-11, but i'm still considered a little short since the average in my country is 6'1 But I still have no issues with height, and I feel lucky to be at least this tall. Balding is a lot worse.

Being short is nothing compared to baldness. A short handsome guy with awesome hair can easily look better than a tall, muscular, pretty-faced bald guy.

good thing your hair loss is noticeable to no one but you toms. you have no clue what real baldness is

 

[Notcoolanymore]

Toms needs to use that hair while he still has it. A good head of hair a horrible thing to waste.

 

[MoHairMoBetta]

Genetics are a b**ch. I'm already a Norwood 3v at age 23. My dad has a full head of hair at age 60 but my uncle (his brother) was bald by 25. You really can't predict what's going to happen.

 

[mr.patches]

Well it beats the "Every day is a no hair day" I had to endure from age 23.

What can I say, some users just don't have any insight.

 

[Exodus2011]

try out a different haircut toms. i see what you are saying about your receding making you unable to have that quiff but you still have plenty of hair to style with.

the point that me and fred are making is you are still in the beginning stages of hair loss. get on meds before its too late

 

[massa]

There is a definite correlation between how much hair you have and how you feel inside. I felt terrible when I realised I was slightly receding back in 2011 I had to wear a hat all the time but now I think wow I still had a reasonable head of hair what was I doing wasting my life shying away from everything, now my hair is a thinning nw3 I feel 10 times worse !! Im dreading how much worse im going to feel when I reach nw4-5 , it must be pure hell!! Hopefully the meds will kick in soon or only a hair transplant will save me.

caught my reflection in the mirror of my car today and was disgusted. Even after the FUE I still feel "balding".

Like I put a band aid on and Im just waiting for it to be both painfully and swift-fully RIPPED off!

Thinking of my brothers head of hair makes me want to just fight people. I understand now why so many UFC fighters are bald.
