Imagine waking up to a pile of your own hair by the bed—this was Amanda Willoughby’s reality for years as she battled trichotillomania, a compulsion to pull out her hair. After decades of hiding and struggling, Amanda, a Kentucky teacher, decided to embrace her baldness and now finds it empowering. She’s discovered that wigs give her a new sense of freedom and self-expression, and she uses her experience to educate her students about mental health. Amanda’s story is a powerful reminder that self-acceptance can look different for everyone. How do you handle your own challenges or insecurities? #Beauty #MentalHealthAwareness #SelfAcceptance
