OP! Don't hate your life :( I've had alopecia since....well, I don't remember a time I never had it. I can remember as far back as 3 years old (I'm 19).

I used to just hate myself for it too, especially when I hit junior high. I hated myself, but then I questioned why that was. Sure, I had a few spots here and there, and my hair was really thin - but why hate myself for it? Because other people wouldn't find that attractive or appealing? I say fuck 'em. I do still hide it, but that's not because I'm ashamed, necessarily. It's because I just don't want to hear people's comments. They will comment. People take out their insecurities on other people. It's such a disgusting, hateful thing to do, but such is life.

You're not alone, OP!! You are most certainly not alone at all. If you ever want someone to talk to, I'm here!! I would LOVE to have someone to talk to about it myself!

Stay strong <3 Life is full of amazing opportunities. Don't dwell on what you don't have. If it helps any, focus on how much you appreciate the hair that's stayed put. That's what I do on bad days :)

Not OP, but I want you to know that this has been incredibly inspirational. I've been losing hair since my mid-teens and I was only able to confront the problem head-on a few years ago and I'm still struggling with it emotionally.

Thank you.

I'm glad I could help, anon<3

I lost my eyebrows when I was in 8th grade, which was a really difficult time for me. I felt all alone. I literally knew nobody else who had similar problems. That's why I encourage anyone to message me!! Feeling alone, I think, is the hardest part of it.
