@A myHIVteam Member indeed. Although how we handle stress probably unrelated to our HIV. That we're stressed, or not, we bring onto ourselves largely. An option we all have is to play the cards we were dealt the best we can; and let the rest unfold as it will.
In the beginning, I totally freaked out about my positive results. Then I got the paperwork in triplicate and had a funeral for my negative self. After that, I accepted having to be positive all the time. It's like I was reborn. Now, almost 10 years into it, I am way healthier, I quit smoking after 38 years and I'm walking more.
I'm kinda glad I was reborn positive because now I'm actually doing awesome.
I'm celebrating rebirth on April 13th in the Philippines with my fiance of 11 years.
True @A myHIVteam Member. And yet, we should be the most desirable partners. Dozens of partner studies around the world has proven that a poz mate with a well controlled viral load is not going to infect his (or her) sex partner(s). We should be the most desirable mates not the one suffering stigma.
True stigma will probably be around for decades decades and because of that more people will become positive.There is medical,religious,economic and moral stigma with this.So yes we feel it all around the board just not self inflicted.This is the reality of the world we live in
That stigma still exist
