Herpes doesn't follow a rule book.
Posted , 5 users are following.
It's been almost a week now since I've been diagnosed with herpes 1 and 2.....still haven't had Any symptoms yet. I guess I should be happy about that. But it still doesn't take away from the emotional pain I feel. I went back to the doctors office today for a follow up visit. It's crazy because this virus gets to sit around in my body and take over whenever it gets ready and I won't even get a warning. My doctor says it's dormant and my body has an immunity of it. ..wtf does that mean. She says I may never get a outbreak, then if that's the case, WHY CAN'T IT JUST GO AWAY COMPLETELY. I'm overwhelmed with depression. I feel so disappointed,disgusting and lonely. I still haven't told anyone yet. I just can't. I feel so dirty. I can't believe he's still in denial about it after the other girl already confirmed she has it. 3 years plus in a relationship gone down the drain. He lied to me for a whole year and now look,,,she's pregnant and all 3 of us has this bulls..t.

Otherwise the anxiety and guilt and shame will keep growing.
Its there with all of us.. but with some support you will find it is much less of a burden.
It is a horrible thing, that we all wish would just go away.
i hope for your sake that you do never get an outbreak! but the more you stress over this the more likely it is. (ridiculous huh?)
This is an unfair disease that leaves us all worried and anxious, and makes us feel like our bodies are our enemies and our sex drives are no longer... but it cant be the way
people live with it
we just have to vent and rant and communicate and see what helps all of them.
I hope you are okay, know you can vent here and people will reply and support you.

Just remember you didn't choose to have herpes, you couldn't of protected yourself even with a condom and it's not your fault. You are still the same person you were before. It's just the guilt and stigma of knowing. Just keep reading everyone's stories and seeing that we all go through this stage of despair but that for a lot of people there is light at the end of the tunnel
