Hello everybody, my story in a nutshell is like this. Im in my early 20's ; and a college student with a good gpa, a bright future ahead, a beautiful loving girlfriend, and a great family. I am religious and consider my self attractive at 6 fr. 4 with an athletic build at 205 pounds. I got a scholarship in another country. It all sounds sweet right...well it is...but it isnt. I made the mistake about 4 months ago by getting intoxicated and having sex with a stripper. That was the worst mistake I have ever done in my life. I got extremely stressed and anxious due to the fear of HIV and other std's. I never had to worry about that since I am not promiscuous. that sent my life into spiral...Im living a lie to my girlfriend since she has no idea what im going through and I live in constant fear, paranoia and anxiety; also obsessive. I have the fear that im being infected by hiv through every move I make. for instance, I was so convinced yesterday that a needle in my sandwich infected me; also today a lady fell and landed on me on the bus. I got stressed because I feared maybe she had a syringe in her pocket that infected me. there are prepostrous scenarios where I am scared whether I got infected with HIV. 3 months after the stripper incident I got tested for HIV and STD's, I came out clean. I feel like my otherwise good life was shattered. I dont like i used to before the incident.. Im in another country away from my family and girlfriend, i dont know anybody here. Im a big, smart tough sophisticated looking guy, but I feel rotten on the inside, so low, so sad, so scared, so not myself anymore. Im tired of feeling like this...btw im getting couseling at school....
