I eat chocolate,shaved and laid out in the sun before I knew... Now?

Are these always triggers, because I know I did all three and probably had H...stress seems to have the most affect so are they all no-nos now?

[HerryTheHerp]

Oh, no they are not.

 

Look, I've done everything I can to piss my herpes off. I've eaten so much chocolate that Hershey's stock skyrocketed. I've smoked so many cigarettes that Phillip Morris had to plant three new fields. In both cases, the companies have put me on the payroll simply because if I go, they have to lay people off. Just last week I got so schnockered some pirate came to my door and asked me where all the rum went.

 

I've gone days without sleep. Been so stressed that my blood pressure went through the roof. Shaved, and suntanned, too. I've even (Hail Mary full of grace, going to have to go to confessional for this one,) masturbated...

 

Know what? Nada. Not a single tingle. Not a single outbreak.

 

Can those things trigger H? Sure, and you do have to learn your body's triggers because we are all different. But, like I said, so far, they haven't done anything to me.
