My acceptance was completely internal and had nothing to do with where I am in my life, nor how I was treated. In fact the way I was treated made me realize no one gives a sh*t about my hair when I'm a good person and fun to be around. I think what you think is completely wrong and that you...

I never experienced any side effects from anything I took. Acceptance wasn't too hard. I literally woke up one morning, went to start my morning routine, and realized "I hate this". I decided my happiness was far more important than my hair and that the two were not related.

This isn't your typical success story. I imagine some people might react negatively to this. Anyway here is my original thread from way back when. viewtopic.php?f=28&t=53187&st=0&sk=t&sd=a Around the time of my last post there I stopped taking everything. I hated it. I hated spending money on...

July 5, 2010: Week 70 Busy weekend. Hair is the same. Thick healthy hair in front just not as dense as every where else. I rarely think about my hair anymore. It has made me much happier. Still on my regimen though. Until next week.

June 27, 2010: Week 69 Same sh*t different week. Until next week.

June 20, 2010: Week 68 Looks like I may be shedding less. Hard to tell. Other than that no changes and nothing to report.

June 13, 2010: Week 67 Not much to report. Keeping hair really short. Still shedding. Hairline in same place with frontal loss. More so in the temples. Hair feels thicker than the last time I had shaved my head. I just don't have much density. Probably going to keep on to two years. I seemed to...

June 5, 2010: Week 66 Having short hair is so much easier. I don't have to comb or brush it. Topicals are sooo much easier. I don't have to watch my hair fall out of my head. Now the summer is coming my head is cooler. I don't have to worry about going into pools and getting my hair wet. It's...

Little update for this week considering it is still the weekend. Manned up and shaved my head. The hair I had left was strong and healthy, but was getting less dense and considerably harder to style. So I chopped it all off. And the result? Not bad. It looks like it may be better than when I...

May 29, 2010: Week 65 15 MONTHS One day this week I had a lot of hair fall out. I almost just grabbed my clippers and buzzed it down to a 0 because I was tired of seeing hair fall out of my head every day. I've been growing it out again and it feels thicker as a result. I have good hair days...

Oh, I'm still hopeful. :) I'm just tired of weekly posts that I don't feel I get anything out of really. Also whenever I visit this site I start feeling depressed when I'm an otherwise upbeat guy.

May 22, 2010: Week 64 Still riding out this shed. It has been pretty stable over the last couple of weeks, with only 20 hairs max coming out while combing and about the same in the shower. I haven't receded any, but my hairline isn't looking as dense. I have good days and bad ones. Even...

May 15, 2010: Week 63 Again not much to report. Some days I see only 10-15 hairs all thin. Some days I get up to 50 with more thick ones. I haven't really noticed any new growth, but I probably wouldn't with my hair this long. Despite going through this 3 month (so far) shed my hair doesn't...

May 8, 2010: Week 62 Not much to say this week. Still shedding, but not much at all. Most of it from the vertex. Frontal area seems to have stabilized for now. Still waiting to see if I will regrow the shed hairs stronger. It's hard to tell now if I have because my hair is so long. That's...

May 1, 2010: Week 61 Shedding has decreased dramatically. Combing I get anywhere between 5-15 hairs. One time this week I combed and only got 1 thin hair plus some breakage. Itch is gone. Dandruff is gone. Hair feels thicker, but that might just be because it is longer. It also feels healthier...
