December 10, 2015.... 3 days before my birthday is when I got the call. I've been tested many times for STDS but I guess either my current boyfriend has it or it's just been silently hanging out waiting. Ever since I got that call I've become more paranoid. If I have to touch my groin area I make sure to was my hands multiple times. Since being diagnosed I've had 2 flare ups. At first I didn't understand what was going on but I survived the first one and now the second. I've read that stress can trigger flare ups. But naturally I become stressed when the symptoms are pupping up. I have found out that I have an anxiety of sorts when it comes to my herpes. I feel like I'm not good enough for my boyfriend. That one day he'll decide I'm too much and leave. But slowly I'm learning to take it day by day. I joined this page to read and possibly comment on how to manage herpes.
