Today my husband is finally putting up my face with my brother in-law, this means I can finally go out in my yard without anyone staring at me and wondering whats on my head!!!
this way I can start slowly to get out of the house wearing my wig or turban!
may i also start my therapy which is suppose to help me deal with stress, anxiety, self-esteem etc, I am really hoping all this works out for me, because I am tired of being sad, alone and feeling like there is no hope for me at…

I told gim how insecure I am answering the door in my turban or for everytime someone sees me I have a total different wig on you know what he said to me," WHO CARES it's none of their business why you do those things, you are who you are and you neeed to be happy about that.

I sure wish there was something magical to make me happy, I feel as if there is no hope.

I found it so hard to even get out of bed in the mornings and night time is my favorite time of the day, cause im going to sleep an…

I wear turbans everydya in my house which I dont ususally like cause I am afraid to wear my wigs.
I get worried if I wear a wig and rest my head on the back of the couch it will mess up,afraid it will damage faster, and also cause I smoke, even thou it's only me that smokes I smoke rarely.
How can I be afraid to wear a wig in my own house? Am I being weird here?

Finallly decided to have a great time and have some wine, Feels quite good and takes away some of my pain that I feel. You see I dont only have alopecia but i have dealt with many turmoils over my life since the age of 2, and I supose I just can't understand why God keeps putting me through all this turmoil in life.All I ever wanted as child is to live a normal life and it's just not happening!
Now I am an adult trying to deal with the pain of no hair.sometimes it's ok but other times I…

has anyone else had this problem?
my head is smooth like a newborn head, however I hav a tendensy to pick at my head, now I have sores and they hurt, am I doing this because of tress or its just something to pick at,, or is it because i'm constantly touching my head looking for signs of growth?
Is this normal or is it just me?
"Dear God please let my hair grow, let others hair grow too,we are wonderful people and DO NOT deserve this.Everyday we deal with the sadness of the…

Woke up this morning and just felt so sad. Yes sure I wake yp feeling like nothing is wrong but this morning was completely oposite,I;ve tried very hard not looking into my mirror but not sure why I did it , but I did it today in hopes to find little hair maybe? but I guess not my head is as smooth as a baby's head. Trefore I found myself crying and taking a tantrum wondering what I have done wrong.
Yeah sure I have been given some medication for what I am going through but I hate like…

I was surprised at myself when the other night I had to drive my sister home and guess what I wore? yep!! my pink turban, I've had looks from others in thei cars and what I did was "wave" see how fast they turn away,,LOL
I have gotten to the point where I will go outside in my turban and couldn't care less who sees me.
At least I know that this is a good step for me. As far as me going out bald , i'm not sure that will ever happen at least not for a long time to come!
Hearing all…
