Does anything help with the tingle/itch?

I went in and got a copy of the results.

My doctor typed my culture.

Im sure once some of the uncertainty of what this diagnosis actually means to me I will be better. Im afraid Im going to have breakouts all the time. Im afraid that I never really dated before and what thia means for that. I dont take rejection well. So all of these things just swirl in my head and I know I have to take it a day at a time but...... Ugh.

Could it just be the hpv breakout?

Im trying. I took some mental health days off work at the advice of my therapist and all the issues besides this i have going on.

Well maybe someday it will happen again.

Its 20 degrees where I am too! And yes that is part of it. Forcing myself to be better. But there were other things so on top of this, I'm dealing with a bit of depression for the first time ever. Which I was told the antivirals can aggregate. Its been a rough year.

Yeah I was going to just try a light walk around the track with some music on. But I just crawled back on my couch lol.

32 year old single mother. First encounter after divorce, 3 days later hsv1 breakout. Northern IL. Looking for other female. Male ok too.

Do most people get breakouts from working out? Im still going through my first break out. I dont want to use the gym equipment other than probably the treadmill at this point. But will it prolong my breakout? Is it bad if Im still running a fever and have swollen groin glands? Im kinda going a little stir crazy and want to do something but walking outside isnt an option in the north at the moment. And I don't wano prolong the issue or cause another breakout or.... I dont know.......

A friend wanted to go out to a local wine place. I thought it would be good to get back into a normal routine. It feels weird going out and having people talk to me like im still the old me. Like this huge thing hasnt happened in my life and altered my body beyond repair. I sat there talking to these familiar people. Them commenting on that I only had one drink and drank water (if they only knew how afraid I am on the antivirals and making my current outbreak worse). It feels like I'm watching myself do this. For a second I forgot I am different, and then it hit me again. Someone touched my shoulders and I jumped because I feel like no one should touch me right now.

Even if its hsv1? The dental dam thing.

I feel like we are in the same boat except I had 4 friends that I told. They didnt realize just how sick you get in you're entire body. They were pretty supportive. But i have your same fears. The same type of ex husband. The same type of boyfriend of2 months. No family. I have hsv1 though. I think doctor was much more sensitive about it. Im sorry you're going thru this too. I have two little kids too and one said a spot on their lip hurt nd I started to freak out. They're though so far. I wish I was on the other side with the success stories to help you, but Im right here with you. I did get put on antianxiety medication. I don't know if there are therapists you can talk to?

I was there too. I am taking antianxiety medication for the second day today. Im scared of the side effects as this is my first time taking it, but I knew I had real depression/anxiety now. Not sure if anyone else got help. It was horrible having to tell my pcp why i needed an emergency appointment. But heres to hoping it's worth it.
