About Me:
I have been born with a disease similar to alopecia, therefore almost hairless. I have grown not liking people taking pictures of myself (as a matter of fact, apart from school pictures, it is hard to find one), never dared dressed prettily, always shy, scared... And from the moment that I started hiding my "identity" (very long process such as changing school) by wearing a wig, I started being very untrusting towards other people. Plus the fact that some kids weren't really nice to begin with, especially when they think or know that you have no hair. And I'm easy to pick on, so...

I haven't accepted this part of myself yet but I'm still trying. My parents have always been monetarily supportive concerning this disease but never really on the psychological aspects, which for I sometimes blame them for my so fragile being - although I do know they can't totally be put to blame...

I am really happy to have found this website, perhaps if I'd been born with alopecia instead, I would have felt less lonely ^^

Hello and welcome, Laurie !
I know how hard it can be, no matter what kind of hair loss you have. I have had alopecia universalis, the most severe form of hair loss, for about 30 years. After I became the spokesperson for the National Alopecia Areata Foundation, a lot of women were needing my help and support, so I wrote a book called, "If Your Hair Falls Out, Keep Dancing!" It might make you feel better. You can find out more on my page -- and let me know if there's anything else I can do!

Hi Laurie,

Welcome to Alopecia World.
What is the name of your condition? Maybe there is someone here who also has this as well.

Jeffrey
