I doubt he will say something, and if he does just say you took medication for it. Easy.

I'm still really bummed. I think it's because I "gave up" on my natural hair and those feelings from years ago of being robbed and being inferior are creeping up again. Also my dependence on this thing is a little overwhelming, and I can't find a local stylist.

I have decided to tell the lady. Not sure when. She knows I've been in a depression lately and wants to know why, but she doesn't bug me. She's pretty amazing all things considered. Usually I'm the strong one in the relationship and comfort her but this is a bit of a role reversal.
