When I was raped about three months ago I got tested. I game back positive for genital herpes. I was DEDVISTATED. I almost decided to kill myself and that is something I thought I would NEVER do. My mom told me I would be fine, my boyfriend still wanted me, but I felt used and dirty and like a trash bag version of myself. I did horrible things. I let go. I could have caught aids or hep C. Thank god I am okay. I just want you all to know I am okay now. Start a routine. Connect with people who really care about you. Get to a doctor. Do positive things for yourself and work on your future. You are valuable and Simone will love you. It will be easier to find the right people with this disease. I know it sounds crazy but I'm GLAD I HAVE IT. If I didn't catch it who knows what would have happened to me with that path I was going down. You are not dirty or unclean or used. You are a person with a heart and you matter. Plus herpes is NOT THAT BAD. Not to be graphic but my lady parts still look lovely and are in perfect use. You just have to use protection (which you should be doing anyway) and don't put your hands in your eyes right after touching yourself. Jeeps is not that bad. I known here grown women who have it and all of them are happy and married. One is married to a millionaire who flies her around everywhere and she has BOTH herpes. The point is, there is a plan for you and if you go on and do good things life will fall into place and happiness REAL happiness is yours. I promise. I was there. It doesn't matter what you've done if you feel remorse and want change your heart is ready and you can have peace. Dont end your life! I was steps away from walking into traffic. I have done bad things for money. I have had an abortion. It's not going to be all sunshine but just know sunshine is around the corner if you just trust! It's going to be okay! They make herpes sound way worse on TV than it is. Life goes on!

    I'm sorry to hear about what happened. Your attitude is so positive and uplifting. I too have taken that outlook on my situation. I got herpes for a reason and only God knows what I'd be doing if I didn't get it when I did. Thanks so much for the encouragement. I wish you all the best!
