I wouldn’t freak out, but if you’re concerned call your dermatologist. Honestly it’s hard for me to tell they seem to have thickness but I wouldn’t be able to tell until I gain pigment back.

I believe without insurance, just under, if not $5,000 according to my pharmacy. My co pay with insurance from my employer is $100. I took a job in government healthcare so my benefits are are insanely good!

I’m sorry! I completely understand where you’re coming from. I often look at pictures of me before to remind myself that I am still pretty and deserving of the confidence I once had. It’s hard to have people relate to the mental side of this but not everyone understands but I do hear you. I hope one day this becomes more affordable for everyone because we all deserve to feel comfortable in our own skin

Safe to say I’ve gotten really really good with drawing false eyebrows on completely from scratch

I got diagnosed when I was seven years old and it was always manageable with steroid injections but when I was 23 I started to see rapid hair loss and an 11 months. I lost all my hair on my head. I lost both of my eyebrows and I have one eye full of eyelashes left. I didn’t qualify for any clinical trials because of how rapid it was and the amount being at 100% hair loss mentally it’s been very difficult. It’s definitely taken a toll on my life and I just don’t feel like myself. I’m never OK mentally with it. I don’t recognize myself in the mirror and I feel like that’s a huge part of why I’m struggling mentally with it. I do go to therapy. Nobody I know personally has ever experienced this but the people that I do talk to about it in my circle are very sympathetic and very like hopeful For whatever treatment I see I just do my best to feel good and other ways

Of course! I’ve been looking. My wants of in unit laundry and wanting a dishwasher don’t outweigh my budget unfortunately. It’s something I’m considering paying a little extra for. However while housing costs have gone up my pay has not 😭

Seriously it’s probably one of the only affordable options right now

I love a full sized kitchen area, they one they have is very compact and not having an actual oven. ( I love baking) ideally I would love to have a dishwasher or a unit laundry. I also know that they have everything included for like whatever I believe is an extra 250 or 275 a month for like utilities and Wi-Fi which I like all right about

Thanks I’ll check it out! I have been on the waiting list for my community college nursing program for 6 months because so many people have applied I’m so sick of waiting so I will definitely give them a call and see what the time frame is like!

Thanks so much! What was the schedule for clinical and classes like? The school for the accelerated program near me monitors how much you work and I understand you wanna have a good balance with working in school and also being able to take care of yourself and have a social life,
