Hey, I thought I would be the one who would listen and give some advice :) At first i thought i had HSV2 after going to the hospital and being given antibiotics for the sores. I honestly thought my life was over now i had it. But that is so far from the truth. You can carry on leading a normal life just like you used to. I couldnt stop thinking about it for about a week, but then i thought, this isnt going to help me at all. Yes you will have to tell future sexual partners that you have it, but again it is not the end of the world. The way i got my head around it was to think, every morning there are people waking up with HIV, or cancer, and yes herpes isnt nice when it flares up, but in comparison it is not half as serious. Please dont think of yourself any less because you have got herpes, you life will go back to normal, and your normal routine will continue. There are alot of people in the same boat as you, including me, so please dont think you are alone xx

ok i have been living with it now for about 6 months and unlike most i look at positives... hopefully this will help..

 

1- average is 1 in every 6 people have it

2- think of it as a pimple that comes and goes

3rd- you can live with it and it couldnt be worse

4- your healthy a live and living...

5- make sure when u date your honest with the person, WHEN the TIME is right, make sure they know and that sometimes life gives us tests that we have to go through and someone will like you for who you are... stay positive...
