So I am always so busy with work and etc that I never have time to come on here. I'm so glad I did, since I came on here my stress levels about my alopecia have gone down. Right now I have a cream that I rubbing on the spot each day and it seems to be making the hair grow back but I am still being prepared for another one coming or it coming back. It's a scary feeling when it is so unpredictable. I hope everyone is having a great week! Thanks for all the… Continue

I'm pretty sure we used to have a bunch of classes together last year. Did you gradate from Umaine last May? I'm not sure if you remember me, I was the bald girl :)

Welcome to a place that you will never have to alone. I'm new here and new to AA, mine progressed fast and I felt just like you. I'm so happy that I found these folks to talk to. I hope that you will also find it a safe place to meet new friends and a place you will never have to judged.

Hello and welcome, Karissa!
I am so sorry you are feeling confused and alone. I know how hard it can be. I have had alopecia for about 30 years. After I became the spokesperson for the National Alopecia Areata Foundation, a lot of women were needing my help and support, so I wrote a book called, "If Your Hair Falls Out, Keep Dancing!" It might make you feel better. Check it out on my page -- and let me know how else I can help.
