I wish there was a way to take some of that away, I had no clue that Vitiglio was such an issue for you or for others.
as a mixed-race child growing up, patches of my skin changed colour and texture constantly (trending towards dark rather than light). the general term for it is "granuloma annularia" - and depending on the colour and size, sometimes looks like ringworm! Aside from some teasing about the ringworm-looking-spots, it was never an issue for me growing up, which is good since there were so many other issues.
it has mostly calmed down with age and lessened exposure to sunlight. These days, unless you look closely, you'd just assume i'm your typical white male.
