Hello guys,
I was first diagnosed with an anxiety disorder at the age of nine. I was constantly over-obsessing over things. I was sleeping 2 hours max. Had my first psychotherapy at the age of nine. Was told that I have an extreme case of OCD and I that I am bipolar. Had several sessions throughout my life, learning on how to control my OCD. Fast forward 11 years, this is as bad as it has been. I have recently been obsessing over me going bald. My father is a norwood 6 (basicaly bald) aged 50. All my mothers family still has hair, so do my both grandpas. In the span of the last two days, I have taken up 20 gb of on my phone, full of pictures of my hairline. I have not eaten the past 24 hours. Almost shaved my head, but luckily my uni room-mate asked me if im insane and threatened to beat the sh*t out of me. Im just asking you guys, if I should start treatment (read about the big 3), or should I go and visit a dermatologist first? I can clearly not see well enough, and can not tell if my OCD is playing tricks or am I really going bald. I can not let my family know that this sh*t has been happening again. Im f*****g turning 20 next month. I pasted 5 pictures that I think show my hair the best and am just asking for your guys opinion. Sorry for the rant, had to get this off my chest.
