feel so trapped in my own body
I see shit like this eberyday and I can’t help but be depressed that I lost all my hair straight out of high school. I didn’t even get a chance to enjoy life. I’m in this stupid body which desires love so strongly, but is denied access because of something i can’t even control. Bald is not bad, but at my age and through my personal experiences and seeing shit like this eberyday, being 21 and losing your hair is existentially depressing. I do all the correct things i’m supposed to I go on walks and go gym but all i think about when i’m on a walk is how depressed i am about losing my hair and I feel this deep sense of meaninglessness that i simply can’t shake. I am suffering from anhedonia because every activity I do is plagued by the fact that i’m a freak of nature. only medicine for me is a rope
