I hate how much it costs to look normal.

I can't go wigless, I have a combo of Trichotillomania and AA, I have HUGE patchy bald spots mostly on the top of my scalp, I'm pale white with black hair, so even when I shave my head completely down to the skin they show up, black patchy spots everywhere, and when I go out in public people look at me like I'm a leper, even go as far as to avoid standing close to me or taking the long way to walk around to avoid me.

Wigs, they are so damn…

I am sad to say that I've had another relapse, after so many months of not pulling, unfortunately I'm suffering from combination of two different types of hair loss, Trichotillomania, and then Alopecia areata, The parts I don't pull, fall out on their own, the doctor thinks its from so many years of damaging hair follicles and now they just can't handle the weight of my own hair once it grows to a certain point.

I think I've just given up, I'm going to be like this forever, because…

I have trichotillomania, and god I wish I could just pretend that I didnt.

It hurts so badly to finally admit that rather then this being done to you, its you doing it to yourself. and that there is nothing worse then losing friends over this.



I'm married, I love my husband and my one year old daughter. but its not enough, I want friends. but I'm alone.

I have to wear wigs, and I finally put myself in debt and decided to go to a hair restoration clinic to try and help me.… Continue

I don't understand why people have to be so rude,

My poor ego :(



I was feeling down, (it's really hard to feel like you look good when you're eight months pregnant) but something got me even more down.



I recently bought a wig online, Seeing as how there are no wig stores in flagstaff that was my option.

I've been wearing it for about a month now and as most of you know, Synthetic wigs tend to wear out fast, especially if they aren't the best quality.

They've been getting bigger and bigger, until finally I can't ignore them anymore.

The worst one lately is the one at the center of my head.



I used to pull my hair out, (I've been able to stop for quite some time)

But now it's coming out on its own, could it be that all the years of pulling have finally killed my roots?

What do you guys think?

Gosh, sometimes I get so sick of wigs, I live in a really small town, it's pretty obvious I wear a wig.

It's even worse when the "children" here think its funny to pull it off in public *twitch*.



I'm sixteen, I know it sounds immature but I really dislike people who make fun.

Tease, pull and jerk off my wig, call me baldy etc.

And decent wigs are so expensive...



I looked into a vacuum wig that wouldn't come off when someone pulled it.

4100$,

I know the sweetest nine year old girl on this planet (in my opinion)

One of the most unspoiled children I've ever seen in my life.



she's absolutely beautiful, but she has to wear wigs because of Alopecia Areata, Her mom was telling me about how she came home crying from school one day because the children took off her wig on the bus and were running around hiding it from her.

She actually had to go back up to he school, to get the wig back from lost and… Continue

I'm struggling with Trichotillomania,

I don't mind wearing wigs, i'm used to it... but I'm so tired of having to shave my head.

I'm still a teenager, and people are very cruel about these things, Ripping off my wigs in public... I'm not ashamed that I'm bald, but I often find myself lying about my actual condition out of fear that they will think i'm crazy for pulling my own hair out...



I'm starting to feel that way myself, It's gotten so bad, I had to shave my head again… Continue
