[samarss]

Friends I got tested antibody negative after 1 year of exposure.
I relaxed.
But the symptoms still scares me.
It is now 1 and half year now symptoms are like skin redness and rashes very much, armpit pain, tongue ulcer, fatigue etc.
So I contacted many online doctors the saying consult with psychiatrist.
But what is the relation between my skin problems with the psychiatrist.
Don't know what to do. very confused please help

Please see your doctor as this is not an HIV concern. We wish you well.

They are telling you to see a psychiatrist not because of the rash but because of your thinking.  You still want to associate the rash with HIV when it has been proven that they are not related.  You won't let it go and your anxiety has turned into a mental illness.  You should see a psychiatrist to discuss why you refuse to accept you do not have HIV.  You can see a dermatologist for the rash but it is NOT related to HIV.  Address your mental health issue to get over the HIV fear.

Yes I accept I am HIV negative but all the symptoms shows on me after sex with that lady.
And the symptom armpit pain, tongue problem, fatigue, knee pain everyone knows it's related to HIV.

You're not accepting that you're HIV negative because you're still arguing that your symptoms can't be anything but HIV. That's why the doctors you've seen are telling you to get therapy. There's a huge disconnect in your mind that requires repair in order for you to get over this irrational thinking about a disease that has nothing to do with you.
