Thanks for the add and Have a GREAT day !
Thank you for the friend request:) I'm new to the website, and don't really know that many people yet! It's very hard for me to deal with this disease. I'm in middle school, and i'm not brave enough to walk around without a wig on. I'm ashamed of myself, and embarrased. I absolutely HATE alopecia. It makes me very depressed, and upset. What do you think about it? How do you cope? You seem like a very nice person, and i look forward to hearing back from you:D
Have a great day,
Sarah Posante
Thank you for your honesty. Most days I feel like thats all I have left. I know what its like to feel like a fraud. I know I'm pretty... when I wear my wig. I used to FEEL pretty before my hair fell out, without make up. Now to come home, peel off my lie, and not recognize whats left. The worst part of this is feeling like no one else in the world could understand me. The denial is still in and out... but I'm finding the more I embrace it, the tiny moments where I own it and open up about it and tell people... the easier it has become to swallow. And not always, but sometimes it helps. I want to be courageous, I want to be strong and accept it... but its not easy. Sometimes its impossible.
Being a hairdresser is a double edged sword. I always feel like people look at me in the salon and see through me, but it helps to know to how cut/color/style hair pieces. And I've learned many makeup tips to hide that I don't have eyebrows/eyelashes.
I feel like I just dumped my heart on your wall... I hope thats ok. I take my day moments at a time, knowing I can start it over anytime by trying to be nice to myself. I hope this was helpful.
Chin up,
Lynds
