Will this get easier? Can I ever get back to the person I was before being diagnosed
Posted , 3 users are following.
I was diagnosed a week ago and sufferred severe pain from my first outbreak, and only after a few days of thinking it was healed the infection has come back. I just feel like there will not be a day where I dont think about it. I feel like a completely differrent person now, i have no motivation to do anything and everyday is more of a struggle to stop myself from breaking down. I hate thinking about good times before my diagnosis because it just makes me wish i could be that person again, this is something i now have to live with for the rest of my life. I feel so lost, and i dont know how i will ever be able to get over it.

I told my boyfriend who I have been with for 5 years, we dont know if he has it because he has never shown symptoms or we have just never noticed them because they may have been so minor. He has been really supportive and it doesnt bother him, but im also worried about infecting him. It has made me feel so low that i dread to think how i will feel if he starts having outbreaks, i would hate to think ive made someone feel how i do now.
It does really feel endless right now and i can't stop crying. its nice to know theres groups like this where i can talk as the diagnosis has made me feel so alone. Thank you for your advice.

When I was going through my first outbreak a few weeks ago, I wondered if I'd ever feel the same down below. At the time, I wasn't so sure, but after 2-3 weeks, I was back to normal, and you will be, too. :D
Only problem now is that my menstrual cycle is really messed up due to the emergency contraception I took and ensuing high stress levels. That's what my doc says at least, and I hope he's right, so fingers crossed! But if it's any consolation, I have had my period three times in one month! Wtf?!!

I have had the implant for 4 years, it makes my periods so irregular i didnt have a period for two years and then i had one constant for like 3 months and then they go again for a year. Perks of being female i guess..
