I noticed you sent me a message ages ago. I don't get on here very often! I'll try to make more of an effort!
out. For many, many years my Mom would pick on me and scold me and I know that her lack of understanding is what prompted this. Still, I ended up trying to hide my condition from the world -- and myself. Anyway, I've read that there are many people who can manage their trich, but mine was just way too much, too big and too upsetting. So, this past summer my best friend in the whole wide world was diagnosed with breast cancer. She was told that she'd have to have chemo, and with that would loose all her hair. I knew that if she had to loose all her hair and deal with the ridiculousness of being bald, I wanted to do this with her. And so, on October 1st I shaved my head, and just 6 days later she lost her hair, too. Thankfully her prognosis is good. And amazingly, I've not regretted my decision for a single second. I'm finally able to understand that for me, it doesn't make any difference if I have hair or not. This Alopecia World has been wonderful, too. I've got a place I can talk freely, and honestly --- for the first time in my life about my hair issues. I'm glad you discovered this site,too, Holly. I hope and pray that your struggles with trich are ones you can get control over. Meanwhile, you've got friends who understand and support you and love you just the way you are! Enjoy the rest of your weekend! Oh, and by the way, be very happy you're not in Keene, NH right now. It was 20 degrees below zero this morning! YUCK. Take care, Holly!!
