What One Memory Inspires You To Continue This Fight?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

Sometimes events in our lives manage, direct and/or steer us to another path or simply promote an awareness in us, like no other.
Do you have one particular event or memory that always resonates with you?

I think the memory in my life that changed the page from self-destructive behavior and a loveless soul to a full-hearted faithful and happy HIV positive gay man was when I found myself sleeping on a floor in a closet of someone that I had just met waiting for my apartment to be finished as the roaches crawled over me and I remember asking God that I would do everything in my power to please him so that I would never ever have to be in a situation like that again. That was 20 years ago.🙏❤️

It's funny how what appears to be the most disastrous of times at the moment ends up being a gift at the end.

Wasn't exactly sure I understood the question at first. After reading the first 2 responses, clearly I have not yet reached my rock bottom.

Trust me no matter how you’re feeling right now it will change it’s not easy trust me. Taking a pill everyday for the rest of your life ,telling or not telling friends and family. Depression ,anxiety . thinking why bother is normal. But remember this disease affects not only you but also your loved ones . And they don’t want you to die.
