To Gabbi, Miscellaneous

Posted by tabitha on July 23, 2002, at 1:32:57

Trying to be kind and not subvert thread away from exercise & healthy diet tips, since I don't have any to offer...

My hair just falls out at the root, but not to make bald patches, it just gets thinner all over. Then it grows back. Fortunately it's thick enough so no one notices but me. Makes a mess though because it's pretty long.

I haven't stuck with vitamins for any length of time. My doctor recommended zinc & selenium, that's standard advice for hair loss from Depakote, but my understanding is Depakote actually causes zinc deficiency, so I'm not sure if that remedy really applies.

My theory is I sometimes go a while eating very little protein (too much sugar instead), it seems to correlate to the times when it falls out. It was worst on effexor, so I stopped that.

I really ought to try B vitamins though, I've heard for a long time they're good for depression. What happens with me is, I buy vitamins, take them for a while, notice the vivid new colors of pee, don't feel any different, stop taking them, then find them in the fridge a year later and throw them out.

So why are you free of your "roommate" tonight?
