I am a girl I have alopecia. And I tend to lose alot of hair andwear wigs sometimes when my hair is bad.
My hair recently started to grow back again, people in college know about my alopecia cause a friend I trusted in ended up telling people and word got around.
I now get comments about my hair shouted at by people, they call me a cancer freak (though I don't have it) make cancer jokes at me and I get alot of hate towards me even though I can't help being partially bald. It's really getting me down.
How do I deal with the negativity and hateful comments towards my illness?
Sick with all the negative comments?
Wow, people can be cruel! You know what- my best reply to you is to not say a word. IF this is frequent, make THEM feel like the looser, by calmly approaching them, give them a brochure about your condition and say, something where you will have the last word then walk away. Ignorance is not bliss, educate them- many people dont understand or even know what alopecia is. Trust at the end of the day , YOU are a good person, no matter what your hair looks like, and people only make blind comments when they are lacking information or personal self esteem. Best of luck!

I bet it's hard to ignore all those negatives comments, but you reallly should. Some people just thrive off hurting others, so don't let them do that to you. Act like it doesn't bother you %26amp; maybe they'll just get tired of making rude comments. Just go about your business %26amp; shrug it off. All those means thing they say to you will come bite them in a** someday.
keep sporting your awesome wigs ;)
hope things ease up for you!

Keep some rocks in your backback. The next time someone makes a negative comment start throwing the rocks aimed at their head.

wow.. and you said you are in college.. thoughs people need to grow up.. ignore them or go and confront them and show them up.. they all sound like *** holes.. like there is anything you can do.. don't worry about it... some people can be so immature.. you should go and print out a page that describes the condition and how its not contagious and that.. walk up to them and give them the sheet.. and tell them to educate themselves.. they will look stupid in front of all the people that have matured

I'm sorry that you live in such a negative environment. I know that there's no way to ignore the comments, but the only thing you can do is try your best to not let them get to you. Realize that they are coming from a hateful place inside of the person that lacks understanding. Don't let the same hatred manifest inside of yourself. If it helps, write down all of your negative thoughts on a sheet of paper. Then tear it up and throw it in the trash. It's important to let your feelings out. If you don't have anyone else to talk to, feel free to email me. I hope things turn up for you. Good luck.

The people who are making nasty comments to you about your hair are just ignorant fools. A good friend of mine has alopecia, but he is a male and doesn't care anymore what people think. If it realy bothers you a lot, then why not get a wig. They make some very nice high quality ones now a days. People are so mean, expecially when they are teens. As they grow up, people stop being so nasty. At least most do.

1st... get a new friend if.... you did not want it known.2nd... if coments of your hair bother you, it is your problem to deal with because their are too many cruel people to make understand how their words can hurt.*** NOW #3 get your self a...lets say Flintstone lunch box to carry with you....in the lunchbox place... a few grains of salt,a slice of greymatter,some understanding (the spreadable kind)a good sense of humor and a bottle of "TOLERANCE" .With this in hand and a smile that says I am o.k you can walk thru this with ease.... if that don't work SMACK THEM UPSIDE THE HEAD WITH THE BOX!!!! :-)

Ignore them, because their hair will eventually start falling out sooner later too and you can even tell them that, maybe then they will stop saying those things to you :).
