Needing a change post-diagnosis
Recently diagnosed MSer here I want to know if anyone else felt the need to change their appearance after their diagnosis. I want/need to cut my hair short so that the fact that things have changed for me inside is reflected outside. Anyone else felt the need to make a change?
I can’t recall whether I did this at the time of diagnosis. But I think it is a great idea. May be helpful in the process of coming to terms that this is a new era in your life—-it may also help you to look at things from a new/fresh perspective. Not only would it be a fun visual change, but might remind you of the new maturity that you have to help you manage your symptoms/treatments/obstacles. Then from a practical standpoint, just make sure you choose a cut that you know you will like and then wear it proudly!💇🏻♀️. 💇🏼♂️💇🏽♀️. 💇♂️. 😎
I did exactly the same, cut mybhair off short! it's comforting to see someone else thinking the same! Go for it!
