Panic has ended... for now
So. Yes, today no panic attack just that murky, obsessive thinking. Or as my new friend calls it the hamster wheel. To be honest, before I had hairloss, I had the hamster wheel. I have suffered from anxiety for a long time. I just didn't make a big effort to do anything about it. Now it is priority no. 1. In fact, yesterday I realized mental health was priorty no. 1. Hair would have to be no. 2.
How did I come to this conclusion?
Here is the logic I used.
Do I hate hair loss. YES
Do I want to keep my hair. YES
Can I control my hair loss. NO.
Can I control my thoughts. YES
So I can only control my thoughts and how I respond. I can't control something that has no cure. Spending times obsessing about it really doesn't solve the problem. If only it could. So mental health comes first.

I agree, health is number one always. Did the rest of your blog get cut off?

yeah i agree to once you get your head clear everything becomes slightly more easier. Ive suffered with anxiety issues my entire life and now I'm finally doing something to help with the obsessive thoughts, worrying and social awkwardness and it feels great to be able to finally control this.
