How much hair is it normal to lose 6 months into Minoxidil?

If you could show me photos perhaps it'd be of great help! When I first started on Minoxidil my shedding pretty much stopped overnight (I was diagnosed with AGA) and around two month later I started shedding a decent amount, it hasn't stopped since it returned. It's definitely not as bad as before I started the treatment but I don't know if it's supposed to completely stop or if you're supposed to continue to lose hair.

I can't imagine things anymore

Disclaimer: English is not my first language.

I used to make up stories in my head all the time, that's how I grew up. And I took up on writing a few years ago but for about a year now it's gotten harder and harder to see anything when I close my eyes. It's all dark, as if a bulb up there just burnt out one day and I can't change it.

Needles to say I've stopped writing. I get too anxious at the mere idea of trying.

I don't even think I care about writing anymore, I just want to 'see' inside my head again. I feel like someone stole one of my arms and now life just isn't the same.

My mind was my home, now it's a scary place.

Has someone else experienced this? Were you able to visualize things again? How?

On addition to all of the above, I received acceptance and commitment therapy for eight months hoping it'd help. It didn't.

6 months update

Do you guys see any improvement/ worsening? I was diagnosed with AGA on December and started with Minoxidil on February of this year along with vitamins and other stuff. I've got tons of baby hairs now but I shed more hair than I wish I would, don't know if that's normal though.
