I vaguely remember thinking that my ponytail was getting smaller and smaller since I was 16/17, and a couple of years ago I cut my hair to a short bob. Now that it's grown longer again I can see just how much it has thinned over the past couple of years. Whenever I tie my hair back in a ponytail patches of my scalp just show through and my part is getting wider and wider. 

I'm really really upset over this, even though it's just hair. I'm being honest here, my hair is the only physical feature of myself that I love. I've always gotten compliments regarding it. It was so thick when I was a bit younger. 

I've been to the doctor and had some blood work done, I had some vitamin deficiencies and am on supplements right now, also the doctor diagnosed me with TE, though I really do believe I have AGA, considering the pattern of my hair loss (mostly at the crown) and how I do not really see much shedding, my hair just becomes thinner and thinner. I have been severely depressed throughout last year (not related to my hair) and also have been under tons of stress, and I'm really afraid that I will only continue to lose hair. 

I know it's just hair. I know that so much worse could happen. I lost my mother to cancer and spent a long time in the hospital and oncology wards, I know just how ugly things can get in this world, and here I am upset over HAIR. I'm already naturally lacking in self esteem and with my favorite physical feature going away I do not know how I'll cope in the future. I'm terrified and so upset, and I'm beating myself up over the fact that I'm so upset. I'd be ecstatic if I only know that I could keep whatever hair I have left. I feel like I will never get a chance to be loved, that people will only be nice to me for the sake of being nice but that nobody would want to get involved with me. I'm just so scared right now.

Sorry this is so long, I needed to rant.
