Today was the most stressful day of my entire life, I woke up and just didnt know what to do i felt desperate like wanting to run anywhere for no reason. So i just decided i cant take this any longer i felt needles and spiders crawling on my arms legs face scalp and i just wanted to break down but something in me just wont let me cry even if i want to. I saw my dad look at me telling goodmorning with a big smile on his face and i just wanted to tell him dad im so sorry for letting you down but im sick. I couldnt i acted normal like always but i was dying of fear anxiety and sadness deep in me. So i decided enough i cant take this anymore i took a shower and in my desperation i just laid down on my tub with the shower running alot of things running throug my mind i wasnt suicidal but just about thinking how i was going to cope with this disease. So i got to planned parenthood i filled out some forms and the people there waiting to be called in didnt seem nervous i was trembling as i filled out my forms. The nurse calls me in and asks me all kinds of questions, I anwred them all. I just felt so weird when i told i was there for an hiv test , she then told me they were going to do all kinds of std lab checks ghon,shypilis,claumydia but wont be in till two weeks, but youll have your hiv test in twenty minutes. I dont know i felt confortable in that inviroment it didnt smell like the typical doctors office like alcohol and stuff , they call me in and i nervous but not as much as i was back home , the nurse takes a vile of blood then the big test hiv i was oh my god please give me another chance the nurse pricks my finger and told me to go to the waiting room there were alot of goodlooking girls with their cottonballs wrapped with tape around their elbows i said in my head this is the price of beauty having to take an std test. the nurse called me in and i was ready to hear reacted but to my surprise it was a negative i was so happy. the nurse then gave a bag of condoms and i left but i still felt kind of odd, alot of things started going through my mind , thinking, what if the nurse saw me so nervous that they didnt want to tell me the truth that my test reacted, or what if my test reacted but they didnt want to tell me in fear of my acting out because i seemed so nervous, alot of what ifs started going through my mind. Im still not fully convinced im 100% safe. Im thinking what if they call me to tell me they found abnormalitys in my lab blood. it was three months since last exposure but my symptoms right now flare up the tingling and the spiders crwling. I prayed to god to give one more chance that i wont mess up ever again and he did give me another chance. Thank you guys for ur advise and time i was definetly in the shoes of those strong minded people living with the virus, i know how it feels now, you just want to escape reality but its imposible hoping its a dream, i still dont feel safe but if i start with the symptoms im going for another test. im sorry for taking your time but my symptoms made me feel really stressed out and i had no one to turn too: night sweat, weight loss, red blanching bumps on chest, big puple bruise like blotch on my arm, dry blotches of brown skin which look like scrapes swollen neck groin lymph nodes, the tongling sensations ghroughout my body lack of appetite having to force myself to eat atleast once a day. I still think about all my symptoms and me not feeling so well i dont know but i hope im ok . sorry for the long post but i needed to let it out i stll feel concerned , thak you
