This past January will be 4 years since I lost all my hair. I think I have coped pretty well with it, tried to stay strong & up; but, lately, it just seems I am missing my hair, angry at my body. The why's coming back. Why the eye brows & eye lashes, will they or my hair ever come back. Do we all go through this? I know that my wounds ar still fresh, 4 years isnt really that along. I admire so many Alopecian sisters & brothers who have delt with this damn disease with such dignity & grace for many many years, how do you do it? I guess like our hair these feelings will come & go. If you can give me some ideas I would be most appreciative. God Bless you all.

Hello Pamela i'm afraid i am the same as you! I lost mine 3yrs ago and my hair grow back last june though and its again all coming out :( I have been the same with the coping thing because i suppose we have to get on with it but that doesnt mean we have to accept it. I hate this and now going to try counselling as i can never see me accepting this could happen for life. Hope ur ok though x

Dear Pamela,
I have to admit this is my second go around with this disease and even thought I am very greatfull it is not life threatening or painful - it is still one of the hardest things I have to deal with. I lost about 75 % of my hair the first time around, got sick of all the bald spots and hats and shaved it. Then after 9 months it all grew back spontaneously. It's been 3 years and last week I found a spot, now in one week I have two and they are getting bigger. It is just hard to deal with, maybe it will get easier maybe it won't. But I have to take it one day at a time, and that's all I can do. My thoughts are with you, God Bless. Kat
