> > Oh yes, you are the one, thanks for answering. Surfing the net I found your answer to a guy that was concerned about hair loss and depression. When you described your problem I was reborn just to find out that I am not alone because you were describing exactly the problem that I have. You know,I was thinking I am paranoid because I was telling to myself the hairloss is because of tremendous stress I was going through year after year after year...

> ...same here as well, have been noticing lately while going through a particularly rough period, hair loss that has been abnormal... Its also diet I think, I have been eating horribly, and I've gotten very thin... so I think that this plays a part in it as well... I'm hoping that as the meds kick in, and I can go day to day without having anxiety or a major depressive episode, when I can sleep all through the night, that I will again start to see some improvements and get back to my normal thickness of hair...Yes, I lost weight too before hair loss started but that was because of depresssion and stress. A year after, I started taking zink, selen and other minerals and my hair improved dramatically but again some things happened and my stressing episodes kept my hair thin but only at the certain level on the top. What amazes me is that when I felt ok just couple of days I could see improvments and small hair regrowing. The problem was that I never had more than a week without stress.
What meds are you on?
Try not to think about hair loss too much because once you start going to the toilette every 10 minutes to check your hair (as I did) that means you are in a vicious circle, stressing yourself even more.
