I get stares everywhere I go. It really bothered me before. But now I embrace it, maybe I like the attention. I also like to let people know about AA because the more people know about it, the more chances a cure will be found. I realized each one of us is literally one in a million and we should not hide it, but be proud of it. I have AA and I sometimes do want my eyebrows and eyelashes back, but if not for AA I wouldn't have what I have now. A beautiful girlfriend that loves me no matter what I look like, and a career in helping people. Everything happens for a reason, even if it's hard to understand what's happening now something good will come of it. You have to look at the small things and live your life to the full because it's short and I spent too many years hiding from the public. I love every single one of you. Stand up and shout! I HAVE AA AND I AM HAPPY!

Hi Alex,
I totally agree with your statement "live your life to the full because it's short." It's great that you have a supportive gf that is with you no matter what. I hope we all find a special person like that. The only good thing about having Alopecia is being able to teach others about the disorder and give support to those going through the HL. That's why I was so happy to find this site. Stay positive.
