  1. Thanks so much guys. I wish there was more information circulating in pop culture to show that hsv isn't so scary. Mean really we all have viruses that stick with us and other problems, right? I was diagnosed with depression a few years ago and was shocked at the stigma of that. It also is so common. Thankfully my family member treated me just the same. <3
  2. Hi there, I am hoping you can offer some pearls of wisdom. A family member has just told me they have been diagnosed with hsv. I have been asked to keep this secret. I am so sad and worried for my loved one (I'll call them LO). Mostly I am worried about their emotional state. I can't imagine what LO is feeling. I don't know what to do. Do I talk to them about it more? Ask questions? Wait until it's brought up again. Obviously I have lots of questions but don't want to badger or stress them out. I have tried reading up a bit online and I think things are becoming clearer. I just don't want LO to feel ashamed or alone. I want to be the best I can be to support them. Since we live in different towns hours apart I can't go and hug them and personally say that it doesn't matter. I did say that I would be there for LO always. I don't want to post much details of who I am or who my loved one is just in case they pop in here. I hope they do, you folks seem wise and kind. Thanks for your time.
