I am 21 years old. I was diagnosed with alopecia when I was 15. During the first 2 years I reached such a deep point of depression that I didn't leave my house for two years. I despised everything and everyone because I couldn't understand why this happened to me. I have only very recently accepted this condition. But only because I realized being upset about it gets me no where. I bring other peoples energy down with the sadness and insecurity. The only time I'm bothered with the condition is if someone asks or says something ignorant. I do have to learn to let that go too. I am at an age of establishing myself, so I cant let this condition control me anymore.
