Hair today, gone tomorrow…

I thought I would start taking making a photo log of whats happening to my hair since my major anxiety crisis. Starting from today.
At its current state my hair is already half its orginal thickness and I can see my scalp through the thinnest areas (excluding the parting, although that is also wider than it used to be). Luckily for me I have lots and lots of fine hair so the loss is barely noticeable (unless your me, or take a keen interest in my hair…? :| ) to other, less hawk eye’d individuals it just looks like its been thinned out. What bothers me the most is that i’m not just losing the thickness, my hair
seems to be receeding too… and fast! (2cm in eight months is fast for me).
The fact that this bothers me so much might make me seem vain but it’s more than that. I have very little self-confidence and losing the one aspect of myself that I actually, genuinely liked? = NO self-confidence what-so-ever… No self-esteem, zilch!  It’s knocking me for six and i’m in danger of creating a vicious cycle, (anxiety causes hairloss, hairloss causes anxiety); you get the idea.
