How do vertically transmitted and needle stick transmission HIV positive people navigate life?
HIV due to unsafe and unprotected sex is a tragedy, while vertical transmission, and needle stick transmission is pathetic and horrible, how you guys navigate through life.
How to see the future of you guys? Do you guys long for love, is life very depressing? Do you guys plan on getting married and having kids?
Hi
. With modern treatments a full and happy life is absolutely possible with HIV. I want to share with you this article on living with HIV which discusses many of the things that are possible, like dating, traveling, and having a family: https://h-i-v.net/living-coping.
Medications have also made it possible to have healthy children (see: https://h-i-v.net/clinical/pregnancy-viral-load) and regardless of method of family planning, many plan for and have children. Steven wrote here about his future family: https://h-i-v.net/living/fatherhood-start-family.
I don't want to paint with rose colored glasses - it is not always easy and there are obviously challenges, but the resources are available for those with HIV to build the life they want. Best, Richard (Team Member)Thank You so Much, I'll make sure to read those articles to understand the lives of positives better.
