Hi, I found out I had HSV 2 about 6 months ago from a blood test.. since then I’ve been going through a lot of emotional turmoil and I guess you could almost say denial... I think about it every day and I’m shattered every time I think of it... now I think I’m experiencing my first OB. I feel so alone and scared about my future love life.. Everyone in this online community is so inspiring to me and so brave... I want to be like that and I want to feel confident and accept this.. but at the moment I just feel terrible... I would really love to have a buddy to chat to, maybe a female who found out while she was single and in her late 20’s as well... someone who can give me hope that I can still be loved by someone someday... thank you and I appreciate all of you

Hi Kab,
I am sorry about your diagnosis, although I think its admirable you found this group straight away for help. I found out I had HSV2 about 5 months ago and have just started seeking advice on how to handle it. I had been symptomless up until right now, I am experiencing my first OB. I have thought about HSV every single say and felt horrible every day and kept it to myself until right now, I think this support group is a really positive step forward in helping people realise how common it really is and nothing to be ashamed of, and how we can't let a silly stigma lower so many peoples confidence. I am determined to accept this and not let the shame ruin my day to day life or the prospect of me finding love.
I would love to chat if you are up for it. I am currently living in Canada (I am actually Australian)
Let me know if you want to email. :) All the best and don't let anyone dull your shine :)
