Stress can lead to hairloss. I would see a doctor though to see whether there might be other causes.

well stress has been proven to cause hair loss, so you should definitely check that out

Too much stress and worry. Adapt to your situation because you can't leave it.

stress wrecks havoc on your hormones so I am sure that is probably what it is.

Sorry to hear about your trouble. It could very well be stress causing your hair to fall out. Or bad nutrition, or any number of things. See a doctor. Best wishes

I don't think I've ever heard of depression ever causing hair loss

(other than people PULLING their own hair out which doesn't not

seem to be your case).

However, there are a variety of drugs that list hair loss as a possible

side-effect.

Have you taken up any new prescription (or non-prescription) drugs

recently?

Interestingly, some of the drugs for depression are famous for causing

your hair to thin.

well,you have to go and have it check. and about the divorce thing, if it is a practice at where are you now, you cant do anything unless if you give him a hard time in signing the papers, that will do.

Wow, my hair has been doing that for the last several months.. I'm going to college this year. It started May on my last month of highschool. I've lost hair before in the summer and winter and just thought it was a seasonal thing. This year my hair has been dry.. but I've been healthy. I know stress can cause hair loss. still not sure if that is the answer.

well, think about this and it may not seem so abnormal... the average person sheds 80 - 200 hairs every day

Well, it could be stress. It could also be a disease called alopecia areata. Here's the info:

Since you've been depressed, you may have cut back on eating. Lack of nutrition causes hair loss. Take care of yourself because if you don't, how can you be ready to meet 'the one'? Let this last one go...he or she doesn't deserve you if they don't like all you have to offer. A million frogs can only lead to one prince.

wow...that sucks. sorry. i don't understand how someone could get married and never be in love. well anyway...your hair is probably falling out cause you are so stressed. you may not believe in divorce but if you want to keep your hair you need to really think about it. why would you want to stay with someone who doesn't love you???

Try to talk through your problems %26amp; if your mate wants to help work through it, then try couples counceling. Or try: www.watchtower.org %26amp; do a search under marriage.

It could be stress or hormone fluctuations... but one of the most common causes of relatively sudden onset of excessive hair loss in women is a change of diet and corresponding vitamin/nutrient deficiencies, especially related to eating disorders. Are you binge eating, or worse, developing anorexia or bulimia because a sense of worthlessness or body image problems are part of this depression?

Good idea to see a doctor for a checkup including a complete blood workup to see what is going on. You totally deserve to take VERY good care of yourself right now... it's a time when you should really be nurturing yourself, including healthy diet, exercise, a stress management tool like hatha yoga to help you cope with the change, and some therapy if your doctor thinks it would be a good idea. Go ahead. You've earned it.

well, hair falling out very easily can be thyroid disease, which can also cause depression, or make an exisiting misery even worse and harder to handle. ask your doc for a full thyroid panel of blood tests...T3 and T4 free and total as well as Reverse T3, TSH etc etc.....

or when some people are allergic to medications their hair falls out too. i was on glipizide, a diabetes drug that's a sulphur family med...my hmo didnt check my allergy list, and in one month, 3/4 of my hair fell out...and lots of people cant tolerate supha drugs. are you on any new pills lately?

and if you dont somehow pull yourself out of an emotionally induced depression, hard as that can sound, you may spiral worse, chemical stuff happens in the brain and it can become clinical. perhaps talk to a therapist?

finding out your s/o does not love you is terrible, and just because you do not believe in divorce, does not mean you have to be miserable for the rest of your life...some people never divorce for varying reasons, live apart and have separate lives. you need a suport group around you, maybe family or friends...joint counselling?...talk to someone who does love and understand you
