Alright /adv/, I'm at a loss here. My hair has been thinning to the point of noticeable recession at the hairline. I went to a dermatologist and they concluded that it was the beginning of MPB and excessive scalp flaking. They advised me to buy liquid minoxidil.
I still am under constant stress and only get 3-5 hours of sleep a night. I balanced my diet and started to supplement a bunch of stuff that seems to help with regrowth somewhat.
-Biotin 5000mcg
-B12 500mcg
-Vitamin C 500mg
-MSM 1000mg
-Chia Seeds
-Iron 65mg
-Zinc 5mg
What else should I do? I don't want to have my hair to grow dependent on Minoxidil but I would like my vellus hairs to grow.

Make sure you're eating a lot of protein as well. Cut out sugar as much as possible - insulin spikes can speed up hair loss. Obviously your stress and sleep situation are major factors in your hair loss, you need to get that under control - meditate.

Deal with this and it will probably grow back if it's not genetic. If your body is under stress, hair is superfluous and it's not going to put any resources towards it because there are more important parts of your body that need them. If it's genetic, then there's really nothing you can do about it other than slow it down, and you can do that by dealing with the stress and sleep issue.

Get on finasteride right away

Trim it relatively short, it will help when applying minoxidil
