you could have male pattern baldness to and because of this you are having anxieties as well. This male pattern baldness runs in my family as well. My uncle first had it and now his nephews (my cousins) are getting it as well.
Yes, anxiety can cause hair loss. ';Telogen Effluvium occurs when sudden or severe stress causes an increase in the shedding of the hair. In Telogen effluvium a sudden or stressful event can cause the hair follicles to prematurely stop growing and enter into a resting phase. The hair will then stay in the resting phase for about 3 months after which time a large amount of hair will be shed.'; During stressful times hair sheds a lot. Poor diet or shampoos can also cause it.
Yes and ask your doctor about a medication named 'Buspar' for severe anxiety.


Try a small dosage, 5 mg 3 times a day, for 10 days or so then ask him to slowly increase until you feel comfortable with the results.


Life is so different without the anxiety and the brain is sharper.
anxiety can cause hair loss. My grandmother was an immigrant from Italy. When she came over on the boat, the trip was so traumatic for her that she lost all her hair. It grew back very thick. You can get hair vitamins at any drug store. They will help with hair, skin and nails, which you can usually notice a difference in as well.
