About Me:
Hi. I live with alopecia universalis since I was 11. Everything started very fast and when I realized had no hair. I think that was the worst time to happen because I was starting to be a teenager! Here in Portugal there is not much support and nobody knows this problem! There is much bias! For three years I refused to wear a wig because I always thought that would be ridiculous. But inevitably began to use, coinciding with the change to another school and from there almost only kept this secret with me. It may have been a mistake but when you are 15 years old is a very difficult time to deal with all this. I lived my life as someone else but now, when I'm 25, I understand have to start to change and begin to share this with others, even while continuing to wear a wig. People who will reject me is because will not lack in my life! I wish find here, in this great community, support for a new life!

I visited the website to share information and experiences!
Do you have alopecia?

    Olá Rose! o meu nome é Cátia Ferreira, estou a contactar-te uma vez que estou a criar uma página//grupo no Facebook visando juntar pessoas afectadas com AA, AT e AU em Portugal, esta ideia surge apos me aperceber da falta que faz uma associação, ou para já, pelo menos um grupo para partilha de experiências, dúvidas e vitorias ( em português, por isso acessivel a todos)neste estranho mundo da Alopécia ;), deixo-te o meu email:
    aitak_40@hotmail.com e pedia-te então os teus dados para te convidar para membro.
    Obrigada! Cátia Ferreira
