Dear Emma:

You wrote above: “My last post was about breaking up with my ex, which all seems so trivial now.” I read your last post and at the time, you wrote about your ex: “He was my first love, my best friend, my first boyfriend- everything”- and now you feel it was trivial. I am thinking that the ending of your most recent relationship will be way, way less painful as time goes on. Maybe it too will seem trivial in retrospect.

But now it is painful. I hope you eat small meals frequently enough so to avoid the bleeding you experienced!

Regarding picking yourself back up (the line before last): can you share more about the stress that brought about your aggressive hair loss?

Is your hair loss complete and permanent?

How is your relationship with your parents…?
