I've recently got the new two weeks ago and they've been the hardest two weeks of my life going thorough depression to the highest level telling my family they've been going through a hard time as well. I'm Muslim meaning i have a strict belief system on sex before marriage. I lost my virginity to the one guy I've ever had the most feelings for in my life I've only been interested with one guy I never dated this guy he is 6 years older then me I'm only 21 he never took me seriously we had one night and it wasn't even full sex he didn't break my seal , then I find out be gave me herpes he didn't know it though, I contacted him about it but Ive been all alone dealing with this gyno appointments no one to really express my anger and feelings to because I have to be strong for my family and I don't want to keep burdening my best friends with my sad story but I need time to fully heal from this .

    Hi Sanson, I read your post and my heart went out to you.  I also grew up in a religious environment (not islamic) though I can't say I am being how I was raised to be.  I am a virgin by most peoples definition.  Recently I accidentally gave myself Genital herpes from my own saliva.  I see other people around me having sex like crazy with multiple partners and I accidentally gave myself genital herpes from my own saliva.  I know you must feel like you are incredibly unlucky.  I too feel unlucky.  I know too that at your age of 21 the pain must be incredible.  Abraham Lincoln once wrote a letter to a girl who had lost her father.  He had suffered himself seriously with depression.  One of the things he said to her is that eventually you will feel better and that sometimes just realizing that can help you start to feel better immediately.  I want to tell you Sansan that this will not destroy your life.  This is not the end.  You will feel better.  Some pain takes time to weaken but this pain will weaken.  Many people have this condition.  You are not alone.  You will find someone that loves you and accepts you.

    You have hope.  Don't forget that.  You have hope.  You will feel better in time.
