Thank you for your support!
Aida, we are so much alike in terms of hair/mood and dressing. (and being IT). The dynamic you describe virtually disappears with the wigs - except I'm so used to it I feel it's almost too easy! I've had mornings where I changed and re-changed, but came back to the original or just stayed in the changed version, because it was equally as fine. I'm taking note of the outfit you suggest. Bookending the wig sounds like a winner.
Lisa, Thanks for sharing your own experience of this strange time in a woman's life.
Liesbeth, that's very interesting what you say about your own silhouette catching you by surprise when your hair is more voluminous. It certainly is like this.

I feel much better today than I did a few days ago, and I think I will feel even better tomorrow. As you say, it's hard to imagine it would get worse, and so I try to count my blessings (AviaMariah, winking to you).
One of my cousin told me of a very interesting prayer: instead of simply asking for something (for example, I'm now praying to find correct dwelling, an appartment where I'll feel safe and happy) to be thankful to God or Universe that it already happened, it's already in line, and thank rather than ask. So one is in the gratitude and not the anxious hope. It's a much stronger, calmer state for the psyche. I have no idea if it "works", in terms of the prayer being better answered, however just to switch to that mode is very helpful to me at this point, as it calms me down.
