Despite having Vitiligo there's still some handsome and beautiful people out here in the world so even if you was nice looking before you had Vitiligo please understand that you are still nice looking because Vitiligo only destroy's the pigment it don't destroy inner or outter beauty because you still have that !!!!

I like the way you are. I have a hard time accepting this, it is always on my mind and I obsess over it. I have always been insecure and now this makes it worse, I cover it up pretty good. I have been getting narrow-band treatments for over 1 1/2 years, not much change any more, I may take a break as it is time consumming
Dear Kathy I'm so busy enjoying life right now I don't even have time to even worry about my Vitiligo I'm a married man with 4 children the youngest who are 2 and 4 keep me busy and to be honest Vitiligo is only secondary to me eventhough I had it for over 27 years now I was diagnosed with heart failure in december 2008 and that is so serious that it made me almost forget about my Vitiligo because now I'm confronted with something that's going to eventually take my life so that has put my Vitiligo in perspective so now I don't even cry over my Vitiligo anymore because my Heart Failure is way more important even if my Vitiligo is pretty bad also at least I can cover it if I choose too but with my bad heart the only way I can Fix it is with a transplant !!!!!
