I took the news very well was not surprised at all. Months later I started making my funeral arrangements I bought a grave site and started making payments on the casket that was 21 years ago I sold it all I'm not ready to die yet.

Dave283 glad you Mark my question here .Here is a hug

Dave283 thanks for hug here is hug for you

I was stabbed at a accident with 4 syringes all had blood in them hospital told me the man died had AIDS i was tested started medication already had a weak immune system 6 months later i had full blown aids lost my job on the fire department and they told everyone. I was mad as hell did a lot of drinking my house was tared family and friends walked away yes i wanted to die 29 years later still here still married new friends new family now the medications are slowly killing me. Wife and step kids still by my side

Absolutely, I was diagnosed about 3 weeks after my boyfriend left me. He was very promiscuous with males and females, no protection, yada yada. I was filled with soul crushing depression, I did want to live, but I felt like everyone would reject me, judge me, etc. I was also terrified about any sort of infection, I still am but not as bad. And I've always been a drug abuser, so I couldn't get high enough to dull the hurt. I'm better now, gave up the IV drugs, on meds for depression, and in therapy. Hope this helps
