Recently diagnosed with herpes. Depressed. Suicidal. Anyone have any advice?
So recently i started sleeping with a new partner and after the fifth or sixth time we haf sexual intercourse i developed small (not painful) like pimples around my genitals and i immediately went and got checked. He told me he was clean. But i got the call back yesterday and i have herpes. So do i blame him? Can i blame him even. Is it my own fault from the past. Ive always gotten checked every few months and never told anything. I literally am scared to touch people, to use my families dishes, to touch myself, i feel so gross. I was dressed so nice hair done makeup done yesterday and after i got the call i had to take it all off because i went from feeling gorgeous to nasty trash. Who would ever want the girl with herpes? I know this is all a lot. But i cant even walk in walmart without feeling like everyone knows.
Cultures would confirm herpes but if you did not have any flu like symptoms a few days after the outbreak, you may have had this for quite some time. Also if they were mild sores its maybe hsv1 which we can get from oral sex. You need to find out which as are a world of difference.
Hi how did you test positive for herpes and is it hsv1 or hsv2?
