Hello everyone Im new to the site....I have been dealing with vitiligo since i was about 6...My skin repigmented on its own and reappeared as a teenager. Since then it has been getting progressively worse in some areas but at the same time repigment in other areas..I have never been to a dermatologist or have tried any type of treatment, any suggestions? I guess the biggest problem that i have experienced is the stares i get from people....

I get stares all the time and yes, there are times it gets annoying. But for the most part, I have learned to ignore it and focus on me and what I am doing. I always expect it and the funny thing is, it only really bothers me when I want to take a quick run to the store in my favorite paint stained sweats pants and oversized t-shirt and because I'm so noticed, don't want to be caught being stared at and lookin bummy. lol silly huh ?
