I'm 38 now - i diagnosed March 2023 with AA, biopsy confirmed it was AT, then went to AU.  Sweating is worst and I currently have social anxiety but i'm trying my best to overcome this feeling also at the same time figure out why.

Just figured what it is like to sweat and not have eyebrows. Absolutely not fun at all! These days my eyes keep watering from the wind, or sting from sweat running into my eyes..... Nastiest thing I experienced so far from this disease.

One sign that you know more than your doctor is when he reads up on web pages at your visit....

I went by him yesterday to see if another blood test could be an idea and that's what happened.

The only treatments i have been confronted with so far, are actually lowering the immune system. Honestly I think I have enough diseases for now and need not lower my immune system to welcome even more.

Yes it looks different, but it's only hair. I have come to terms with it by now even if i feel i look strange when taking off my glasses. The picture is already outdated as I now have only 5 or 6 hairs left in my left eyebrow.

The feeling of having baby skin is more apparent to me than the reflection of my mirror.

Wish you all a great weekend. Spring is comming here in DK so best get some sun on the scalp while it doesn't burn ;-)

I'm 59 and have had AU for 40 years. It really is a rollercoster of emotions. I think I've been through pretty much everything life can throw at me. But yes I still have days that I have to talk myself through. Days where I doubt everything about myself. Just know that you can't give up no matter what.

Hi Michael,

Having alopecia is a rollercoaster of mixed emotions for everyone. Especially so as you transition through stages of your new appearance.

Hi

I have had AU for about 6 month now, and dont know anyone with the same disease. So I have nothing to compare with, but suspected early on that it was Alopecia. December 20th I was diagnosed AU and have accepted it for what it is.

I do, however, find myself doubting but maybe that is due to a new found attention to any hairs at all.

Fact is that I am now bald, and have lost my eyelashes and eyebrows well on the way to disappear.

Does anyone else have these mixed emotions?
