Hair Loss
I used to be a self obsessed guy who loved praising himself. my self esteem was higher than the clouds and my confidence was touching the roof. then i started to lose my hair. my hair who were almost everything about my personality followed the footsteps of my ex girlfriend and left me. here i am, cant face the mirror. if i am out and it rains and if my hair gets wet it gives me anxiety.

I understand hair is important to some but you are still you....confidence does not live in hair or we would never have it even cut. If important to you what is your plan other then letting depression take your mental health.
There are many options in hair growth treatments have you had a health checkup?

I’m really sorry to hear that you’re struggling with this. It sounds like losing your hair has had a profound impact on how you see yourself and how you feel about your appearance. It’s completely understandable that this change has affected your self-esteem and confidence, especially when your hair was such a significant part of your identity.
It’s tough when something that once made you feel proud and confident starts to feel like it’s taken away a piece of who you are. The anxiety you’re experiencing, especially in situations like getting caught in the rain, highlights just how deeply this loss has affected you.
It’s important to acknowledge that your worth and identity are not solely defined by your appearance. The qualities that once made you feel so confident—your strengths, talents, and values—are still very much a part of who you are, even if your appearance has changed.
Consider seeking support from a therapist or counselor who can help you work through these feelings and build self-acceptance. They can assist you in addressing your anxiety and finding ways to rebuild your self-esteem. There are also support groups and resources specifically for people dealing with hair loss, which can provide comfort and practical advice.
It might also help to explore ways to reconnect with and appreciate other aspects of yourself that aren’t tied to your appearance. This could be through pursuing hobbies, reconnecting with passions, or engaging in activities that make you feel good about yourself.
You’re not alone in this, and it’s okay to seek help and support as you navigate these challenging feelings. Your value extends far beyond your appearance, and there’s hope for rebuilding your self-confidence and finding peace with yourself.
