The study explores the therapeutic potential of performing arts, such as stand-up comedy and theatrical improvisation, in the rehabilitation of patients with alopecia. It introduces THE YOU TECHNIQUE, a method combining cognitive distancing, neurolinguistic programming, and acting principles to improve the quality of life for those with alopecia. The study highlights the limitations of traditional pharmacological treatments and emphasizes the benefits of transforming traumatic experiences into comic narratives. This approach helps reduce stigmatization, improve self-esteem, and develop adaptive coping strategies. The effectiveness of these interventions is supported by original statistical data and sentiment analysis.
