Hair Shedding: Will I become bald?

I suddenly lost the pride for my hair, which, before, I used to brag to other people, even to my students. I am shedding too much hair now. I am beginning to imagine myself bald and I am readying myself for some blow.

Anyhow, I am constantly assured by the small growing hair in place of the hairs that are being lost by being shed off my head.

But the sight of a mass of hair on my hands or on the floor would be enough to make me freak out and run to the mirror to see if I ever have a bald scalp. Playfully, the mirror wouldn't readily reveal that to me. I have to always ask my son to take a picture of my head for me to see my own head.

At first I was so much bothered by this phenomenon but I came to accept that maybe at some point, someone experiences this thing. So I just try to be at ease with it even if in reality, I still get so much scared by the image of being hairless.

I believe I have no serious sickness. I also isn't stressed that much. I become sad from time to time and worried only because of being an adult, of the fact that I am the one who is thinking about my family's well-being. But any other parent thinks about that.

Maybe, it is about the OCP that I stopped taking. Or how I let the kids play with my hair before just so I could get massaged because it sometimes is a very relaxing thing.

I dearly hope that these beloved growing hairs will finally be long enough to show themselves as my new hair covering my head. Still, I feel a smooth and super black shiny hair when I comb my remaining hair. But I feel it thin now as compared to the past before the hair shedding.

Every time I think of being bald, I am assured that I will not because I see new hair growing. Still, you know, I can't help but freak out.

Pardon me but I won't be showing a picture of my fallen hair. Let me just talk about them in words.

I sometimes dare myself to comb nonstop to see when the hair will stop falling. It does stop. But after sometime, again, there will be new ones falling off.

I was advised to get a hair cut and that I don't have the time yet. Maybe this Saturday. Just that, with my heavy body now, I think that one that still makes me look good is my long hair. But, well, because of the hair shedding, I will first get a hair cut. Positivity will just be my key to coping with all these happening right now.

This photo was taken so many years ago. Even if I don't comb my hair, a proper shampoo and/or conditioner would make it look like that already. I don't exaggerate, I don't. For as long as I have washed my hair properly, it will fix itself on its own. Now, still could get up without combing but then, the hair fall is the problem.

I hope this will resolve as soon as possible.

I thought of going to the doctor but let me just first observe what happens.

Have you ever experienced this? Not just few hair fall but hair shedding where you see a lot of hair falling on the floor? How long before it got resolved? Did it stop on its own? Or did you get professional help?
