[desperado]

I am so frustrated & depressed w/ life & w/ myself. Seems like Britney is too. Apparently, she shaved her head b/c she was "tired of people touching her". Well, so am I. I'm furious. I'm sick & tired of people touching me, sick & tired of people hurting me & sick & tired of doing what others want me to do. Screw that.

I totally feel like shaving my head too. Maybe I just will. Or cut this mess of misery called "hair".

Sorry. This is a very angry post, but it's keeping me from hurting myself.

I heard that britany is having problems with drugs and she acted impulsively. she shaved her head and then immediately got tattoos. please think this through before you do anything you might regret.

[(JD)]

Please rethink your ideas.... you've been hurt enough, why hurt yourself more out of anger? ((((hugs))))

Sorry Desy, Wish I could help. Don't know if I would jump off of the deep end like Brittany though.

((Deserado)) Shaving your head would only be continuing the pain and hurt you already feel. Try and be kind to yourself.

I hope you are feeling better Des...sometimes we all get angry with what happens in our life but what we do with the anger is what matters....will you be constructive with that anger or destructive......the choice is yours. I hope you chose the constructive method and get the help you need. Take care of yourself Des.....

I'm sorry you're feeling so bad. Please, don't shave your head.

[desperado]

Thank you everyone, for your support.

I don't know how to be kind to myself.

I don't know how to get rid of my anger any other way.

Hugs to all of you.

I heard Brit did what she did, coz no one would cut her hair short!!!!

Desy...... I find boxing or any kind of martial arts a relief...
I got myself a punching bag & I tend to take all my frustration out on that!!!

*hugs* if you really feel like shaving your head will help then I say go ahead. Hair always grows back!

[desperado]

Yeah, I think Brit's at her breaking point, too.

Thank you for the post, Flinty.

How much are punching bags, if you don't mind me asking?

I'm glad this helps you.

I've picked mine up second hand......
They vary depending on size & weight!!

[desperado]

You got the goods, Flint.

Haven't shaved it off yet, but sure feel like it.......or pulling it out.............

Shaving ones head can be very freeing depending on the reason for doing it. I haven't a clue why Britney shaved hers. I shaved my head once and had no regrets about doing it. It was sheer relief at the time. I put away the hairdryer, hair gels, hair spray and my showers were shorter. After a while, I let it start growing back. And I'd do it again if I ever feel the need.

I started kickboxing (with bags, not ppl) and it is incredible for my built up frustration and tension......

I'll throw some massive punches for you, and some gi-gundo kicks on your nehalf oka until you feel better....

[desperado]

Yeah, Calm, I'm sure it was pretty liberating. I'm so sick of trying to fuss w/ my hair & myself, trying to look good for people..............wanting to please others...........and sick of trying so hard. I can definitely imagine a life w/o all the hair products, for sure.

I'm not there yet, but I certainly feel close......

[desperado]

If you could throw some major punches & kicks on my behalf, Tal, that would be fantastic.

Thanks.

[Talulah]

No problemo my dear one.....

I will kick the effing crap out of the bag and devote the entire session to you........that will make me feel like it's working. Know that a bag is getting it's brunt on your behalf and I will send out vibes to you so that you may summon some strenth to be that runner that you are des.....

[desperado]

THANKS, TALULAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(((((((((((((((((((((((((TAL)))))))))))))))))))))))))))

p.s.: Someday when I get a punching bag, I will kick the effing crap out of it for you, too.

[Boopers]

(((((((((((((((((((((Desperado)))))))))))))))))))))))))

I hope that things will be better for you soon. I know the frustrations of depression and life in general.

I hope that you will be able to find a constructive way to let out your frustrations.

Thinking of you.

Hugs,

desperado, hoping your mood has lifted some. Earlier in another post, I mentioned that I had shaved my head. That was the second time my head had been shaved bald. The first time was not of my choosing as it was necessary for the surgery that was performed. So, after having that surgery, I knew what to expect about looking bald, and it wasn't a shocker when I shaved it myself back in 2005. I don't know if you're still considering doing it, and I'm definitely not encouraging you in that direction. I only want you to know that seeing yourself bald for the first time can be a very strange experience.

Wishing you peace in spirit.

[desperado]

Thank you Boopers; thank you Calm. Those are very sweet posts.

No, I haven't shaved my head yet........but the thought is still there.................I am just extremely frustrated w/ my pathetic life right now. It's kind of like, I just don't care what happens to me anymore. I'm just fed up, so why not shave my head. I don't know how to explain it. I'm just a freak.

Anyway, thanks again & take care both of you.
