Brittany LaRue noticed her vitiligo when she was 18-years-old. She’s 34 now. LaRue has been called a cheetah, cashiers don’t want to touch her hand when she pays in cash and she was even asked had she been burned. She was depressed for 10 years, but finally gained confidence in 2012 after going to a conference for vitiligo in Clearwater, Florida. “I made myself pack shorts, tank tops and other clothes that wouldn’t cover me up. I just wanted to be me again and after that weekend I was,” she said.
