Does Anyone Ever Feel Like Life Is Passing Them By?
Does anyone ever feel like their life is a dead end and not going anywhere? Dead end job, no friends, no dates, just feel like everyday is a vicious cycle of nothing.

Shame? How To Move Beyond It
I have suffered long term shame due to abuse I suffered as a child. As a result, my diagnosis is a big source of shame for me.

Most of HIV deals with gay men. Straight people with HIV probably feel left out with support, help, or somebody to talk to. My question for straight people is, how do you address things when people talk about HIV and how it's a gay disease, and how gays deserve it for being deviants. Or how do you address when people say, "it will never happen to me, I live a moral lifestyle."
