So I am having a bad, bad day of shedding related angst today. Stress. The irony of it is that my hair loss is both contributing to and is exacerbated by stress. Of all the rotten luck. Make it go away please.
This site though has been a god send. Particularly in my current state of gloominess, I am surrounded by a buch of extremely fair maidens who instead of perching on rocks mournfully waiting for their knight errant to come and slay their dragons for them, they went ahead and did it themselves.
Me? I'm still singing my sad song on a rock somewhere almost clinging to the despair. So here it is, my current nightmare of epic proportions.

Will my life change for the worst?
What is the worst thing that can happen?

Yep, the fact that is happening, I feel I have finally come to grips with. But the depression is eating me from the inside out. With every hair that falls the black gloom takes me one step further away from where I want to be.

So I'd appreciate a hand in slaying my dragon, the coward's way for now, but I know in the end it is something I will have to do for myself. Face those fears. Ahhhh it is what makes us human eh? To stare those nightmares in the face without blinking.

So what was the worst thing that happened to you?
What is the best?

Hi again! The worst thing that happened was me feeling insecure and having to overcome my fears of being without hair. Once I accepted my hair loss and moved on, it felt like a ton of bricks were lifted off my shoulders. The best thing that happened to me was shaving my hair off and regaining control; realizing that hair does not define who I am. I embrace my alopecia now and see it as a very unique part of who I am. Hang in and keep smiling - I promise it will better :)
