All I can do is have faith

by Melissa
(Kansas City, KS)

Im 22 years old ive never been a sexually active person. Ive been with four guys my whole life and i dated them all for a long time.

Well i have been single for almost a year now and I meet this really awesome nice, sweet, and caring guy. We start talking and hanging out and usually i wait awhile before i have sex with a person but for some reason i didnt with him.

Its the biggest mistake that i have ever made now im stuck with herpes and no one to talk to, its so devastating im having a hard time as it is trying to be successful in this world and now this.

I just wish I could turn back time and be the girl that would wait to have sex. All i can do now is have faith and believe that their is hope for me.

That I will find someone who will love me for me and the fact that i have herpes wont scare them away. If you are reading this I want you to know you are not alone.

Have faith believe god is there for you when no one else is, stay healthy and do your best to live your life.

Dont let blister stop you from living.

I just found out a couple hours ago but i knew i had it as soon as i saw the symptoms.

Im going to take my own advice and stay strong because thats all i can do. Im not saying this happened to me for a reason but maybe i need to change my ways and focus on different things in life. Good luck to all of you suffering from this!

i went to my local clinic yesterday it was a very big wake up call. I know that i did all i could when it came to protecting myself, for instance if i was single and having fun i would use protection (condoms) religiously however in a relationship my partner and i didnt see any real reason to protect ourselves to the extreme as we were both regualar partners for each other and the only thing that i cared the most about was accidently getting pregnant so therefore i made sure that i had a form of birth control (implant) i had my first symptoms 3 days ago i was sore and uncomfortable and then these (what i thought at the time were ingrowing hairs) bumps appeared and i didnt think anything of it until they started 2 get really sore and more and more of them started to appear. at this point i was scared to go to the loo because it was that uncomfortable to pass anything. i went for my appointment at the clinic and the nurse looked at me took some sample swabs and a blood test and called another doctor in. then i was given the news that it "looks" like i have herpes. i burst into tears, not believing what i just heard and i have been praying ever since that the doctor was wrong. im still waiting for my test results and im taking tablets in the meantime but there is no reason to hold on to false hope. i know some doctors may get it very wrong because that type of thing has happened in my family before and it turned out that the doctor was so far from knowing what it was they got it wrong with a few of mine family members but this doctor that i had seemed so sure. Im still in denial because everytime i think about it i cant stop crying im low and i kno if i have any chance of making this thing lay dormant for a while i know i have to have a happy and cheery disposition to help health wise. i just dont kno how i will cope with this.
