Do you ever just get tired of dealing with this hair loss? I am seriously considering just shaving my head . It's not that I am giving up and not fighting but I am tired. Shaving my hair would help me so I don't have to see hairs all over the place. I really do not care for my hair style or any other style I have had since this crap started. Emotionally nothing will be good enough as my beautiful thick hair use to be. I try and get over it and accept what it is now. I usually do pretty well and always seem to be able to have hope for the future. Blech

oh my god oh my gawd you have just written down on here the exact feelings and things I have said to people for YEARS ... I hate my hair I hate it SO much I have asked my hari replacement woman to shave it off. . I have wanted to tear the last few strands from my head with my bare hands and NO one NO one understands that ven though i have cosmetic hair (billions of extensions) how much I hate dealign with the ever increasing thinness on the top the wind blowing my receeding hairline back everythign I am sick and tired of getting up in the morning and having the same hair style and I cannot put it up ..

I can totally totally sympathise with you 100%

do you deal with hair replacement ? I want to have different styles I want to flick my hands through my hair I want to tie it up in a pigtail without exposing bald temples I want to walk in the wind and hold my head up ... I just want PEACE from this horrendous condition. just ONE day of not wakign up with the feeling of dread.

Done all medications and all the meds have had horrid side effects this has got to be the most single worst thing I ahve had to deal with

I sympathise a lot with what you're saying. At present my hair loss is at the temples -- when the wind blows it's very obvious that I've got male-pattern hair loss, but otherwise it's not yet too obvious. However, I think that it's an enormous help to have predictability where possible and face up to the fact that real-life situations are rarely what we would wish, but we've got to get on with life and make the best of it.

Like most girls, I longed to be feminine. Being flat-chested and having to shave my moustache every day even as a teenager put paid to that. But I reckoned that the side-effects of the drugs that might have controlled the hair growth and increased my breast development might be worse than the benefit they'd give me, so I steered clear of them. And in the event I can now see that though my life has been rather different from what I'd hoped for, it certainly hasn't been any worse. I got so used to shaving that it's now a part of my life that I certainly don't think of in a negative way. If eventually I have to start wearing a wig I hope it'll become at least something similar in that I'll get used to it.
