Hi everybody :)

These are questions I'd really love your opinion on...

But first I'd like to give you the 411 on myself. I was diagnosed with AA October of 2008. I had just moved to a different region and 2 months later, I found a bald spot. It grew back with a steroid injection, but a month later I found another one. The following months I discovered more and more and decided I would soon be bald. I became depressed. I didn't understand why it was happening. I confided in a friend, who decided I should speak with a psychic. The psychic told me my hair was falling out because of my negativity. I had to change my way of thinking immediately, otherwise it would get worse. Her words gave me hope. I tried to tell myself everyday, it's going to grow back, but it was so hard when you see the hope wash away in the shower. After a few months, I learned to accept the possibility of me being bald. I thought, ok, if it grows it grows. Soon enough, it all grew back. Now, a year and a half later, I don't have any more spots.
However, I have been more stressed lately and I notice my hair is a lot thinner and falls out more. I check everyday hoping not to find that little spot, but I'm scared. They say when it falls out, it usually looks like an "exclamation point" but it just looks like i have no root, it's just white.

It's driving me bananas! So my questions are: when you were diagnosed, were you very stressed? Were you a "negative thinker"? Do u have a success story?

I wish the cause was known, and that this was curable. If only the government was spending money on curing diseases and not on war.

Thank you guys :)
