Last year ramped up my anxiety for days, weeks at a time. Then this year had surgery. Now my hair has been falling out like crazy and is causing my anxiety to go crazy again. If this has happened to you, what things helped? I'm becoming really self conscious. I had my hair cut shorter thinking it would help or at least help make it look better. Dr checked my thyroid and that is ok.. Any suggestions.

Is your hair falling out at root or breaking off.. my hair used to break off but I switched to a more natural shampoo, called Wen, and no more breaking. Do you eat well and take vitamins, there are hair vitamins too. Stress depletes vitamins.Also our hair goes through natural cycles of falling out more at certain times.
There are a lot of reasons for hair loss. Stress, of course. Especially for extended periods. Medications, poor nutrition, illness, aging. Hair is made of protein just as your nails are. The skin nourishes the follicles it grows out of. The skin/body needs to be healthy to promote growth. Cortisone shots promoted my hair loss until I stopped them. That’s just my experience. Then covid came along. More loss. When a woman loses her crowning glory, it is more than frustrating, I know. Try to eat a balanced diet, reduce your stress and be aware of side effects of your meds if you take any. Slightly acetic hair products will help reduce the damage caused by alkaline (drying and breakage) products. For your skin as well as your hair. If you find any products that actually work for hair renewal, let us all know. I’ll make it worth your while. 🙏
