"Hair strands keep falling from my head
but that doesnt mean ..."
I dont remember how I found it but I observed the existence of several quarter-size baldspots on my head.
A Fellow Sufferer
I saw a dermatologist and was diagnosed with Alopecia areata. One of the causes of this is stress. And I had stress in spades.
The book and the alopecia areata. The stress I could see my eldest going through. My own unhappiness when the S.O. was home. It all came together when I got the diagnosis.
The most amazing thing was when I told him how concerned I felt about how I'd look if this continued all over my head, his answer that his work life was stressful was like a power switch on how I cared about him. It was at that point that I just stopped caring about him - stopped loving him at all. Or maybe I just realized it at that point in time.
It no longer was an issue of how I was going to make this work.
It was an issue of how was I going to put an end to this with the least upheaval to myself and the kids.
We need one of these!
