I love what you said! I feel exactly the same! No one, no one, knows what you feel unless they have had to deal with Alopecia!
I don't care how confident and strong we are - it's still heart breaking!
Love you for sharing your honest feelings!

I hear you Samantha that sounds like my truth too I've thought all those things I appreciate your honesty simply said.

its such a mystery of emotions in the beginning. I thank God im not there now, but the reason I wrote this was bc the other day a dumb friend of mine said he had noticed "something different" before I has told him.I realized even though I have had no hair for 10 years and am very open about it i still am affected by peoples words. this wasnt a cry or a poor me just raw and real and this is exactly how i felt and many of us feel when we loose ALL our hair, lashes, brows etc... you think loosing head hair is hard, wait till your lashes and brows go.
Alopecia does not identify me Christ does.Psalms 139:14yes it

I really like your blog. That's exactly how I feel too!

This blog is awesome it expresses exactly what my partner says all the time. The mistakes I mads in the early stages thinking I was being supportive went down the lines describe, and the times I have seen comments on here, as well meaning as they may be are very unfeeling. No one wants to hear they look beautiful bald when they are feeling so freakish, males you wonder how bad you looked with hair if you look better without it. This would have to be the best blog on how it feels to be bald if I had read this years ago I would have been a better husband and friend to my partner. Thanks Samantha.

Exactly! Well written Samantha...

Your blog is so well written. It is hard enough to cope with the alopecia and I agree sometimes you just dont want to hear that it is just hair especially from people that have full heads of hair.
Great Blog.
Take care,
Jill

Love the post Samantha. Those feelings I deal with everyday and I often wonder if they'll ever go away. All I guess I can do is "hold on".
