Scared to Death
Just finding out that I tested positive for herpes has changed my life dramatically. Other than going to work I don't go out of my house. I feel like my life has ended as I knew. I keep making up excuses not to see people. I have to talk to my man friend and see if he has ever been tested and if not, that he should. I know if will end our relationship but I don't know if he had it and I contracted it or if it was me. The doctor said either one of us could had have the virus and didn't know. Not know when I would have gotten is driving me crazy. The relationship before this one was for 5 years. Now the new relationship has been over a period of two months. I have to talk to both of them and I just don't know how.
I am so paranoid that people will find out and they will look at me differently or just avoid me all together. So many thoughts have gone through my head, even suicide. I am at the lowest point in my lfe. I have read everything I can find and there is no hope at all.
All I can do is pray to God for mercury and guidance.

Drling, Do not be so
Drling,
Do not be so paranoid about it. Do not even think of things like suicide... Trust me it gets better over time.....This virus won't kill you, you may even never get an ob, you can have kids just as if you didn't have it... yeah it's probably rough telling somone about it (I never had to do that yet) but I can imagine you must hjave gotten it from one of them so I'd say speak to the new one first, ask him to please get tested for it and be calm and positive when talking about it...I wish you best and kit :)
it gets better.. i promise
Hey! I know how you feel. I just got herpes type 1 3 months ago. It was really hard at first. What you are going through is normal... I thought that my life was practically over but I was wrong. Just take it a day at a time and I promise you that everything will work out. It may take awhile but just be patient. Time heals all.
Best of luck :-)
