First impression, that hairline is seriously matured for 16.
I believe he is right. Its diffuse all over the hairline.
Not sure what role the hard partying lifestyle is having on this.
Anxiety, ditto.
Obviously, consult an endocriniologist or dermtologist.
The fact that your fathers people are all balding in thirties makes you highly highly
susceptible to male pattern baldness,,,,and EARLY.

Dear friend,
Here are some resources for the thoughts you reported. Please take any self-harm thought seriously and seek immediate professional help.

Getting help
If you're reading this because you're having suicidal thoughts, try to ask someone for help. It may be difficult at this time, but it's important to know you're not beyond help and you're not alone.
Talking to someone can help you see beyond feelings of loneliness or despair and help you realise there are options.
There are people who want to talk to you and help. Try talking to a family member or friend about how you're feeling.
There are several telephone helplines you can call at any time of the day or night. You can speak to someone who understands how you're feeling and can help you through the immediate crisis.
Helplines and support groups
We know it can be difficult to pick up the phone, but reach out to somebody and let them know how you are feeling.
Men may be more likely to avoid or ignore problems and many are reluctant to talk about their feelings or seek help when they need it.
A support group called the Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) is an excellent resource for young men who are feeling unhappy. As well as their website, CALM also has a helpline (0800 58 58 58).
Talking to someone you trust
If you don't want to speak to someone on a helpline, you could talk to:
It would also help to see your GP. They can advise you about appropriate treatment if they think you have a mental health condition, such as depression or anxiety.
Your GP may be able to help you with access to talking therapies. Talking therapies, such as counselling and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), are often used to help people who have suicidal thoughts and usually involve talking about your feelings with a professional.
