Yes, we all have some form of alopecia and that can all make us a little sad sometimes, but what are some things that make you feel happy & content?

My list:

  • receiving letters
  • good morning texts
  • tight hugs
  • cuddling with my cat Luna
  • buying a new book
  • when they add whip cream to your coffee without you asking them
  • cute gestures
  • getting inspired and writing for hours
  • books with happy endings
  • buying new clothes
  • warm sheets fresh out of the dryer
  • my bed after a long day
  • taking off my hairpiece!

  • meeting new people
  • when your crush likes you back
  • back scratches

I recently bought a ridiculous amounts of rubber livestrong-style bracelets that say "I <3 someone who has alopecia". Im a bartender at a very busy place that has a ridiculous amount of regulars. What makes me truly happy: seeing an entire bar full of people wearing these blue bracelets. I want to pass this happiness onto you all, as well. Knowing that hundreds of people in brooklyn are supporting us.

aw thats great! Where did you get the bracelets from? :D

Coffee

Chocolate

Hugs

Faith

Prayer

Hope (not expectations)

Self Awareness

Buying Clothes (I'm a thrift store junkie, who cares? lol)

A long hot bath

Putting my hair back on after a bath (I don't usually take it off).

Buying a new wig

Buying some new boots

Long walks

Long trips

My job (91 million don't have one in the USA right now)

Cleaning out my car :)

Having a happy dream about anyone in my family

Having a dream about flying

working in the garden

drawing

yoga practice

working out

Toastmasters (of all things, its seriously a lot of fun!)

relaxing on the deck

walking along the beach

going out for coffee with my husband/friends

my cat

music of Pink Floyd

music of David Bowie

and of course the Beatles and Rolling Stones (yes I'm a 60s girl)

reading 

facebooking

my comfortable bed

my home

Happiness is condition, is not something to seek..

I'm pretty sure my hair never made me happy before I lost it, and I'm certain my happiness now is not dependent on hair.

Playing my fiddle

The ocean

Gardening

Seeing daffodil leaves poking out of the ground

Rain (enough drought!)

Slipping into a warm bed

Talking to grownups

Playing with my daughter at music class

Being surprised by one of my boys actually being considerate, responsible, thoughtful, or, for a moment, not seeming to want to drive me to pull out my hair.

Playing my fiddle again--after a decade or so of not really playing, it feels to me like finding a voice, as if, despite the state that I have let my home life get into, how often what I say is ignored, how little of "me" is left in my existence to urge me out of bed in the morning, I still am able to express joy.

Usually, it's just money. I decided to give stock trading a try and started learning here: instaforex review

I've got anxiety and not having anxiety attacks already make me relatively happy. 

I've got anxiety too. I also use CBD products I find on this site https://hmp.club/ to ease my state.
