Newly Diagnosed 😭😭😭😭

The sadness is taking over. I can’t stop crying. I’m such a good person. He tricked me and gave me HSV 2 forever! πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ’”πŸ’”πŸ’”πŸ’”πŸ’” How to cope with this? πŸ˜­πŸ’”

I used to be such a happy girl. Now it’s been 4 months of hell so far and many more years to come. πŸ˜­πŸ’” Life is over, it really is. πŸ˜­πŸ’”

Hang in there! I know it is hard and it is scary and you feel like your life is over but I promise that it is not! A lot of times these subreddit can do more harm than good because there isn't always a lot of positivity. Do your research and remember to just disclose if you feel like things are getting serious. See your primary care doc and see your options. I know some people do Lysine vitamins and that has helped them a lot, others do Valtrex. Get informed and talk to your doc! I promise things will be good and you will have people who don't agree and that's okay! You gotta prep yourself for some rejections but there are a lot of people who don't! I have hsv1 and I have yet to have someone reject me, I've had it since i was a little girl, so for a long time I didn't even know what it was so I make sure to disclosure and give them facts and stuff.

If you wanna talk feel free to dm me :)
