I’m a woman in my 30s with darker skin, and over the past eight months I’ve noticed small pale patches developing first on my fingers and then on parts of my face. At first, I thought it was just dryness, but the spots slowly became more defined and lighter than the rest of my skin. Seeing the contrast in the mirror has made me feel anxious and more self-aware when meeting people.

Stress doesn’t cause vitiligo on its own, but it may contribute to flare-ups in some people, so managing stress is often part of a supportive care plan.
