Stress after one night stand

Hey I am hoping some of you could give some advice.  In April I had a one night stand with a girl and the condom broke.  I did not know the girl but she informed me she did not have any std's.  Since then I have endured a great deal of stress and guilt over my actions.  I was tested for HSV1 and HSV2 at 7 weeks post exposure, negative results.  I was also tested at 17 and a half week after exposure and that result was negative as well both were IGG tests.  Since then I have been paying very close attention to my genitals and the only thing ive ever noticed as been a few minor pimples during the summer months which acted and healed like pimples.   3 days after exposure I was tested for Chlamydia and Gonnorea using the NAAT test and that was negative.  I am close to 9 months post exposure and have not been sick in any way.  I read a few posts that some people never develope Antibodies for Herpes and am wondering if I can put all this behind me or if I need to be tested again ?

Thank you,  what type of professional can help? I know deep down my thoughts are irrational but can't seem to shake them.  I've gone from constant worry about hsv, then I convinced myself I had asymptomatic gonnorea or chlamydia, then I began worrying about molluscum Abe hpv... Now at nine months i am worrying about HIV even though i have not had one symptom and my sexual history other than this one time mess up puts me at a very low risk.

really, no reason to think you contracted anything from a one time mostly protected encounter and all your negative testing.

if you can't move past this, talk to a professional about it to help you move forward.
