IS MALE PATTERN BALDNESS REALLY SUCH A BIG DEAL? REALLY?

There is no sadder site than that of a man obsessing over one stop hair loss solution after another, year in year out, until there’s no more hair remaining to worry about. His self esteem is damaged, his relationships with family, friends, and work colleagues are damaged, his social life becomes non-existent, and whatever happiness he used to enjoy is replace by misery, stress, and anxiety. That’s no way to live a life and for what? Having happened to him what happens to tens of millions of other men worldwide.

He seeks alternative treatments such as acupuncture, meditation, yoga, and hypnotherapy, all to no avail. He dreams about hair transplant surgery and become angry and bitter because the costs are just too far out of his reach. So can such a man be helped? The answer is YES but only if he helps himself and changes his perspective.

A balding fellow once said to me, and I quote; ‘losing my hair is a catastrophe!’ to which I replied; ‘Compared to what?’ That’s right, there are people in severe pain as I write, someone somewhere is being told they have a few weeks to live, others may be getting tortured, millions are starving, sick, and ‘wanting to die’, and the biggest problem in baldies life is that he’s getting a bit thin on top.

So, perhaps our friend with the receding hairline should say to himself something along the lines of; ‘If me losing my hair is the BIGGEST problem in my life today, then I’m in pretty good shape!’
