Idk if she'd want that hahaha. She's better than I thought I'd ever be able to do though and is beautiful with dirty blonde hair and green eyes. When I mentioned how much hair loss consumed my life and told her that I was depressed about it every day she said "Yeah, I've noticed it but you are...

I kinda just use a palmful of foam, a enough that I feel it well and probably about the size of a chocolate truffle (lmao). Sides actually are still quite thin but look normal if I keep them short enough and that also provides contrast to the top which although it has improved, is still thinner...

Thank you :). And yeah, that's also very possible although doctors all told me it was genetic and hair loss runs rampant on both sides of my family. Whatever it was, it worked and I'm happy!

Oof

I'm back; I've been on 5% minoxidil for 3 months now and my hair is pretty much back. Thank you to those who supported me and thanks to those who made fun of me or told me it was hopeless. In the past few months I got on minoxidil, grew facial hair, and worked out every day and lost fat and...

Look at my picture, I'm an 18 year old Norwood 5 with thinning sides. Do my sides look anything like you?

I don't know if I'm unattractive. I'm told I'm not but I'm also body dysmorphic and and have social anxiety so Idk.

I know. I'm not really bullied though. They're people who are kinda my "friends" (more of acquaintances but I talk to them occasionally, I'm just lucky to be friends with almost everyone) but they think it's funny. They probably just don't know any better, I'm not mad at them, they wouldn't be...

The problem is I already struggle with mental illness; first I had a traumatic childhood and then for a long time I hated myself because I was fat. then I lose all of the weight, I'm feeling good about my self for a while, now I'm bald. Things just can never go my way.

Nah, I already ran a test for Thyroid Stimulating Hormone, I'm within reference range but I could've been anemic for a time at least because I didn't eat for 3 months

I have two friends who I feel comfortable talking to about this stuff and I usually just spam them whenever I get upset and I feel really bad after lol.

Thank you, I actually sincerely appreciate the apology and I understand because I tend to do the same thing to a tee, especially the part about not doing things because of your hair. A few weeks ago I wore a hat to a wedding and some people asked me to take it off and I said I just had a very...

Thank you, this means a lot. I've already run a comprehensive metabolic panel, CBC/D, and TSH, and I found them to be withing reference ranges. I suppose that those aren't the only causes and tests though so I'll do more. If it's telogen effluvium it could already be corrected because I eat...

I think I'm going to go see a dermatologist. I wonder if this could be from being anorexic for a while and is reversible.

Thanks man, this makes me feel a lot better about myself. You should probably refrain from leaving comments like this to depressed and vulnerable people.
