My Journey With Alopecia

[@clappedoutmiata]

I was just trying to find info online about my cbr’s cam chain tensioner and stumbled upon this. Great video and hope you’re doing well. I love your outlook on life and how positive you are with things. Wish you the best brother

Hey im Tom age 19, i started having huge bald spots a few years ago while i was in highschool. That was.,exactly a journey. Other people started spreading rumors that i had a sexual disease, that was very difficult. The hardest part is definitely depression that comes with it, i have grown to live with it, of course it is still is there. I like to think we are getting a head start on gowing bald when we are old. In a way that makes us stronger and already emotionally fit. Thank you for talking about it. Live life and have fun doing it.

I can tell by the way you write about it that you have gone through the rollercoaster that this condition drives you through. It's also very apparent that you are very self aware, which is a trait that people don't develop until later in life. This condition is not what we asked for, but it was what was given and it is our responsibility to learn from it. No one will know what you have gone through, or what you will still go through from time to time. There are 7 million of us, so you're not alone. Reach out if you are ever having one of those tough days! Cheers Tom! Steve

Im wondering if you have any tips for getting a decent job , i have worked plenty of side jobs but i want to have a career that i can support a family with. Thank you. Hope you're still rocking the haircut 😁. Have a good one.

@@Tom-tk2we I always thought that this condition would prevent me from landing a great job, especially since I wasn't happy or fulfilled in my last job that I had when I began this journey with Alopecia. The question is: what do you want to do? Are you in school/ planning to go to school? there are so many lucrative careers out there and lots of them are even remote. You're so young, time is on your side.

Hi there we are a force to be felt with , I went through exactly the same story you do but for much longer . I'm black English and had this for nearly 30 years but have got so used to it as everyone said it suits me , just would like the eyebrows. Microblading is a option but wandering if I could get get them tattooed. But as you said no shaving hair products and your not alone out there

Hey Steven. Thank you for sharing this. Your video is encouraging. I share the same. It startet 1.5 years ago with a small spot on my beard. Now there is no hair left in my entire body. Went thru doctors, but dont want to take medication. As you say, some good and some hard days. Pretty challenging. Changes my appearance. Stay strong. Best wishes 👍

Hallo Steven, many thanks for your video. I know your video is already one year old but I still wanted to share my mind with you, by the way I'm Patrick from Germany and 22 years old. I guess I can say I have the same shit as you, I have it already since 4 years and completly hairless at my 18th birthday. I could really felt every point you have said. Some days are really hard, speacially during this corona situation. I think social media is one of the biggest problems I have to live, because you always trying to compare yourself with others. And I really think this is the wrong way. I was also thinking about to get an permanent tattoo for eyebrows, because for me it always looks weard on pictures, even after four years. Speazially meeting with new girls is really diffecult. You cant go out anymore and dating apps are just the wrong way to go for with this hair condition. The recent three years I thought that I'm alright you know, never really had the feeling to had to talk to someone. But during this Lockdown this really came back up in my head. So I just want to say thank you to bring up my smile again. By the way you look awesome, and bad ass as you caled it. Take care. Patrick
