Looking back during this time, 🚫 NOT 🚫 what you think today, but looking back to the time, did you think Ryan was treated fairly? Was people justified to be scared back then?
You can be honest, nobody is going to attack you. Things have changed and so has most people.
So, what was your thoughts on Ryan's treatment BACK THEN. AGAIN, 🚫 NOT 🚫 what you think 💬 🤔 today, but what you thought back then.
It’s hard but as long as you take your meds everything will be ok. You can’t live in fear all the time. That will put a wedge between you and your partner. To be safe have them to use prep. Set… read more
Oh hunny can we talk
After burying 7 of my friends in 2001 I began to wonder why the hell I survived
As I learned to accept myself and by listening to my late husbands words of " only you can make… read more
Does it bother anyone (or offend) that the new commercials on regular and internet based television airwaves, for HIV/AIDS treatments, show gay men in loving and caring relationships as their poster senerio for needing PREP or Truvada or any other treatment?
All part of the marketing process with its portrayal of the ideal relationship. I am not offended or bothered in the least. You have to wonder what the budget is for these ads and its obvious who pays… read more
This came up in a discussion earlier for me. We all know what the discrimination or the stigma is of this virus now. But before you was diagnosed, what was your true feeling about HIV/AIDS or people who had it (if you knew of anyone)? How different was your view then compared to now?
I remember watching The Phil Donohue Show and a little girl named Hidea was on talking about living with HIV.My heart went out to her .At that time I was 16 years old with no idea that 3 years later I… read more
Most of the resources for HIV deals with the gay community or is targeted towards the gay community. The HIV+ straight community feels left out in so many ways when dealing with this disease. How can the gay community bring more openness, and more resources to the positive straight community? How can the gay community help the straight community deal with this disease as one and not separate? How can we get HIV organizations to bring awareness to the positive straight community? Even though we… read more
Yes. Id like to know same thing. I was lucky in 2004 to meet husband on a hiv dating site. He passed in 2014.
As we are still alive because of Dr. Fauci with his incredible work with AIDS & HIV. Developing daily meds with the big Pharmaceuticals that have helped us stay alive taking a pill a day, (which is individual and different for each of us), I just want to give a shout out to thank him, and glad that he is on the "team" to figure it all out. A brilliant Doctor who's always ahead of the game.
So, my family - do you have confidence in Dr. Fauci or support our President with his philosophy that… read more
@A myHIVteam Member then I wish you peace and as much as possible, comfort brother.
I have a friend who was recently diagnosed with HIV as well and holds strong anti-establishment views, particularly against "Big Pharma," "the system," and what he perceives as a totally 100% corrupt medical industry that prioritizes profit over health, keeping patients dependent on medications. Consequently, he refuses to take antiretroviral medications or any other scientifically developed drugs. Despite my efforts to encourage him to consider antiviral treatments like Biktarvy, I respect his… read more
Yes, I think he is just outright lying to himself (and me) when he told me he got to undetectable this way. I think I landed on this article before this week -and it is the best one I could… read more
Knowledge, Education,
Instead of ppl running from Hiv/Aids learn from it,
One Day They Might Find Themselves In The Same Place And Learning From It They Would've Understand Better Blessings 😇
HIV and AIDS are related, but they’re not the same
HIV is a virus. It may cause AIDS after you’ve been infected for several years and it’s weakened your immune system. Not everyone who has HIV will get AIDS. But the infection will advance to AIDS, usually in 10 to 15 years, if you don’t get treatment with antiretroviral drugs.
Many people with the virus don’t know they have it. Of the nearly 1.3 million people in the U.S. who have HIV, more than 160,000 haven’t been diagnosed and aren’t… read more
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is an infection that attacks the body’s immune system. Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is the most advanced stage of the disease.
