Chloe Kelly: โI was riddled with anxiety!โ My experience with hair loss and panic attacks

Chloe Kelly: โI was riddled with anxiety!โ My experience with hair loss and panic attacks

Chloe Kelly: โI was riddled with anxiety!โ My experience with hair loss and panic attacks
So I went to see a specialist and she was amazing and she told me that I had alopecia and I was like, wow, now I'm seeing the physical changes that it's had to my body, not just mentally, but physically.
