Suicide???

[NeedAdvice2013]

I am so depressed over condition of hair, or lack thereof, that I have attempted suicide once, have thoughts of doing it again, only this time, will be a sure fire way out! Anyone else on here feel likewise? I mean, yes, I have tried "the big 3", attended counseling-where guys with "perfect" hair tried to get me to avoid that there was a problem and focus on other so-called "positive" things, which is purely BS!!! I have been on every anti-depressant there is, some twice.....seen many mental health "professionals"---they got richer, while my problem still lingers!!!!

Ever consider? You see a very attractive women, with a guy who has perfect hair....knowing that will never be us??? And is it was...she would secretly fantasize about guys with hair!!!!!!!!!!! I had it happen, many times! Then, you happen to meet a nice looking lady, an immediately she stares at your head???? WTF???!!!

I tried working out to get "buff", but I am an ectomorph

What do you do?

What can you do?

How do you cope?

I have actual panic attacks in public over this!

Advice please guys?????? You can relate.....some "professional" with perfect hair, charging me $175.00 an hour can NOT!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, on numerous occasions that subject has come up. Before you kneel down on the tracks and hug a train, Bosley has financing available. I'm not being flip. There are option to exhaust if you'd prefer to live and enjoy what's available in life.

I'm sure you look fine, and are just exhibiting the same self consciousness that everyone feels. Everyone has some condition they'd like to be without. Hairloss is something that can be fixed for many men, and if you want to live, and it bothers you, then fix your hair.

There's always buy-sexuality too.

I've thought about the same things you have. Every single thing you mentioned has gone through my head. I actually thought about suicide today.

I'm not going tell you that everything is going to be okay because its not. It's not okay. All I can tell you is that you have two options. 1. You can end your life. or 2. You fight. Even if the odds are against you, you find a way to fight your fate.


That's it.


I know your pain and even right now, I have yet to pick an option.

When I started losing my hair, the thought of suicide crossed my mind. I was 17 back then.

But instead of being depressed all the time, I decided to do something about it. I talked to doctors, did a lot of research (this was before the internet!) and eventually found out about finasteride. I believe Propecia wasn't an approved treatment yet but Proscar already existed.

20 years later, I'm still a NW2 and I'm proud of it.

Suicide is never a way out, no matter how terrible our problems may be.

You started losing your hair at 17 and kept a good amount for over 20 years?? Wow! You are an inspiration! Please tell us more about what you did! For the OP and the rest of us.

I'm 25 and I think I'm an NW2. I haven't really done much but I'm going to get rogaine today. Please elaborate. Tell us your story. It would really help us a lot!

Hang in there man. I have met so many chicks that are desperate for a 'real man' hair or no. The other day, I was at a coffee shop and there were these two girls looking on a dating website and they were both very cute. One of them said 'hey he's cute. Why don't you click on his profile?' and she said that she was looking for a more 'masculine guy like with a shaved head you know?'. I wanted to give her a medal from all of us baldies. Anyways don't give up ad def keep us posted bro until you feel better.

Also.... Keep your mind busy. One day there will be a cure ( I hope ). When that day comes, you should be ready. Get a good job or advance up in the one you have. Talk to women even if you get rejected just for practice. Hell, learn a new language or something. Save up cash for the cure. Just don't give up. There are a lot of people out there going through this ****.
