When you have vitiligo, you may be upset or depressed about the change in your appearance. There are several things you can do to cope with the disorder:
�� Find a doctor who knows how to treat vitiligo. The doctor should also be a good listener and be able to provide emotional support.
�� Learn about the disorder and treatment choices. This can help you make decisions about your treatment.
�� Talk with other people who have vitiligo. A vitiligo group can help you find a support group (check your local listings). Family and friends are another source of support.
Some people with vitiligo have found that cosmetics that cover the white patches improve their appearance and help them feel better about themselves. A person may need to try several brands of concealing cosmetics before finding the product that works best.
