I've made up my mind. I'm going to get my temples fixed.

What made up my mind happened last weekend. I was up in the mountains playing some pond hockey at Keystone. I was a having great day. I was skating around and over everyone there. I was in the zone. I could feel every detail of the ice through my skates. I could feel every little move the puck made on my stick. It was a great day. I haven't felt that good in a very long time.

After the game I go back to my cabin. When I pull in I see the people at the cabin next to mine pulling away in their car. One of the girls kind of looks like my ex. I think nothing of it. Its the middle of the ski season. What are the odds my ex would rent the cabin next to mine.

Later that night I was in my hot tub doing some work. Yeah a laptop and water I know not a smart idea. The people in the cabin next to mine get back. They walk right past. The girl is my ex. She gets this big smile and runs over. Keep in mind its cold and there is a couple feet of snow on the ground. I'm wearing a hat.

A little while later she gets in the hot tub with me. We start catching up on old times. It was just general stuff. She asks me if I'm dating anyone. I tell her. I haven't dated anyone in years. She says why you have a fantastic body. I take my hat off. The big smile on her face just slowly goes away. She tells me I'm stupid for thinking that its not that big of deal. I know deep down she is just trying to make me feel better.

This girl was my dream girl. I never thought. I'd meet my dream girl. She is perfect in everyway.

Last time I spoke with a doctor was Aug. of 08. Its been about a year and a half. I'm almost 29 now. I'm going to go talk to some more DRs. Pray to god they don't say I need more grafs. I'm thinking of just getting some FUEs into my temples. I'd be happy with a solid mature nw2 hairline.

Wibelz,

It sounds like you've been dealing with a multitude of issues and this recent run-in with your ex-girlfriend may have been the spark that finally ignited the powder keg.

However, I'm a bit confused by this part:

Do you mean she told you not to worry about it, or that she thinks it is a big deal? Also, did you broach the subject of wanting to restore your hair? Have you talked to her since the hot tub conversation?

Best,

Anthony (youngsuccess)

I'm suspicious.

Have you just started Propecia? Doesnt that cause moodswings in some people? Just trying to help.

Hey man, I can sympathize with you, and hopefully help you out a little bit. Let me give you a bit of background, I was always a dork in school, and only developed into a slightly attractive young dude when I was around 16ish. Started getting a little more notice from the ladies and got to like it a lot.

Then father time struck me with the onset of baldness when I was 17! dam.. and it just kept going. I noticed everything fall apart around me, girls not interested, people dont give you the respect you deserve anymore (and you know that on a primal level it's just their reaction to a guy with lesser hair, unfair but true). Anyways reality bites, and I finally came to a point.

I had researched TONS and it consumed all my spare time and all my thoughts. I got rejected by a few docs when i was 23 because they said i was too young, and by this time i had pretty decent loss. So I took their advice to start propecia( which everyone should take for the rest of their lives anyways), and did it for one year while honing in on my final choice.

I set up my appointment for the sweetest surgeon in the world, out of vancouver bc (dont know if we can name drop or not so i wont, didnt read the terms lol). I was scheduled for 3000 g's. With the amount of time i pre stretched my scalp and the effort i put into it, we were able to do 5300 grafts in one session!

It's a month and a half later, the hairs have fallen out, the redness has went down and things are in waiting mode. I have a renewed sense of self esteem already and I know the worst thing i can do is worry, cuz stress is a bish

The difference before and after ( and i haven't even seen a dam hair yet!) is phenomenal and life changing, im confident and im back to my old playful self again, letting my mind deal with things that are interesting and more trivial.

If you need around 1500 grafts I would absolutely recommend going through with this(just make sure you feel comfortable), because if you already had chicks throwing themselves at you, then you better dust off the charm again, because its only one right decision away!

Best of luck man, and i work in an office too, bottomline, a lot of people are ignorant morons, take pleasure in knowing you can identify this and therefore know you're not in that pool! Anyways I dont think i could have possibly made a longer post, this is my first and i plan to update pics and stuff when my phone is charged again, taker easy!

Are you seriously this down about your life because of your NW2 pattern? Seriously? From the way you write, it would seem as if your completely bald on top and have lost all of your confidence because of that. Buzz your hair until you can find a solution.

If your young/don't use Propecia/have family history of hair loss that exceeds NW2 most surgeons would tell you to wait until your MPB stabilizes.

Do your research, make sure you spend A LOT of time reading up on anything and everything that can help you make a better decision.

And this might not help you because of your stress-filled career but remember, excessive stress only leads to more negative, so stop worrying.

but hes not a NW2, his says he would like to be a NW2, meaning hes got less.

I totally identify with what the thread starter said...I am in a worse shape though, and I too have felt many times like blowing my brains out...and got up the next day, and somehow soldiered on. Hair loss is finally my last straw man...started five years back but in 3 years I have gone from thinning hair to full blown bald...and at the rate I am losing hair, I give myself six months before I go fully bald...the depression is so bad that I cant even bring myself out to go gymming or meeting people...:-(
