So I’m a 20 year old male , I’ve seen slight changes in my hair which leads me to believe I’m balding (my dad is), I know everyone experiences minor hair loss day to day but whenever I see a few hairs loose I immediately get super stressed and my anxiety intensifies. I always think of the worst possible situation. Like seeing a few loose strands after washing which should be normal to others, is terrible to me. I’ve unfortunately tied my hair to my self esteem which is pathetic so it’s on my mind constantly. 

Why do I always think of the worst? Even when I think logically those intrusive thoughts take control.
