That's just not part of being an adult, especially a high functioning neurodivergent. You just got to do it. So really, if the boyfriend still can't meet the needs, if he's using it as an excuse, just dump him, dump the motherfucker, move on. He's not able to meet your needs. It's the same as with a neurotypical person.

about the identity struggles that he went through when he lost his hair, he said that he found one thing that helped him was using his new lack of hair as an opportunity to experiment more with wearing different scents. So maybe finding a perfume that you feel like you really like and that affirms your gender identity could help you get back a sense of yourself.

Hey Dan, I'm a 30 year old gay guy and I'm sorry for how melodramatic this is. I know this is something many guys struggle with, but I'm having a really hard time accepting the loss of my hair and By my mid-20s, I was noticing that it was getting thinner and thinner. Discussions with barbers became about how to make it look fuller and hide the thinness and not what actually looked good.

I knew I was on borrowed time. About a year and a half ago, I saw a picture of myself where my hair looked so thin, I decided to take the plunge and shave it off. About halfway through, I was crying and regretting that choice as it looked terrible. I knew it was going to take some adjusting, too, but every time I saw my reflection, I felt miserable. I didn't even look like me anymore.

I wouldn't consider myself feminine by any means, but I looked like a truck driver, like any guy in a metal band. So aggressively masculine in a way that makes me uncomfortable. There are some people who look good with a shaved head or a buzz cut, but I'm not one of them. I tried to get used to it, tried to convince myself that it was better to accept this as my new normal, but I can't.

I like my hair, I like styling it, I like my partner running his hands through my hair. I like having conversations with barbers and getting their advice. I tried using a prescription treatment service for a couple months to underwhelming results, and eventually my form of acceptance has been just, wear hats and feel bad.

After the better part of a year of trying to live with it, I decided to let my hair grow back in. And while I felt more like myself again, I was back where I started, struggling to grapple with how patchy and thin it's become and the whole seeing it would take on my self-esteem. A week or two ago, I shaved it off again. I still hate the way I look. I don't feel attractive. My confidence is shot.

It's impacting my mental health and My sexual interest in my partner is gone because I feel so unattractive. He's been nothing but supportive of whatever choice I make and tries to make me feel attractive, but I can't feel it. I'm heavily considering hair transplant surgery, but I don't know if I'm in the kind of financial situation where I can justify that for a while.

Until then, do you have any advice for how I can come to accept this and stop letting it ruin my life?
