MadPoet Its from my experience of being a gay man for a great deal of my life and meeting alot of gay people in and out of the closet , is that the ones who are usually the most paraniod or the most upset by gay people usually have something hidden in their own closet. Just a thought.
Mad Poet the only way I have been able to cope with this all is by using my imagination and try and work it all out in my head. To make everything thats happening to me into something i can understand in simple terms. Thanks for the encouragement man! Its really really really helping me!
No Marvin cause I dont consider it a mistake. Period.
Since having HIV the word positive has meant alot of different things to me. Pozzie, Poz, Positive. It's really ironic that the term for living with HIV is Positive . People keep saying to me be positive. I am. Ive learnt to live with this. Being Positive. Even though I would rather be negative. Im positive. Seems a funny play on wo
Thanks MadPoet will be in touch asap!
Just goes to show trina what is the real agenda here. Sounds like an ultimatum to me. Sounds like they are trying to influence the way we vote. But hey the government there at the moment is just like the government here at the moment. Both are conservatives. Hopefully they both will change.
Hey MAdPoet.. How do I get to chat with you? Ive checked your site out.. what do I need to do? Cheers!
It finally rained last night. Not only did it rain but it poured! Thunder and lightening and heavy wonderful rain! Still not enough though, but as a relief it was very welcomed. The air feels clean and crisp. I had very bizarre dreams last night. Stocrin dreams. Stocrin is one of the drugs I am on. It makes you feel like your on an ecstacy pill, not a go
Peace to you to mikimouse
Mikimouse Ive been very fortunate that the parters I have had are not bothered by me being positive. It is easy. We use protection. Safe sex is very easy to do. Wear a condom. Simple.
Im glad Marvin is posting here. He is an example of the extreme to why this virus has caused so much stigmatism in society, why people living with HIV have mostly had to hide their status and why people like Ryan White (remember him?) had it so bad in the early days. Unfortunately this stigmatism is still around. Because of this that is why people dont openly talk about their status, why it is still being passed on and why people arent after
Hi MadPoet. I hear you. I thankyou. Ill be chattin with you soon. Thankyou mate.
Hey Mack. Thanks thoughts are always good! Loved the storm. About time we got some rain! Can you feel the air cleaner?
Hey trina_p! I went on the AZT years ago. Made me feel really horrible, really bad nausea. I cant take them anymore cause I am resistant to them meaning they dont do anything to the virus in my system anymore. Really loved the movie last night. Yeah it was weird. One of my favourite parts was when Al Pacinos character Cobin was dying. He played it really well dont you think? Im in NSW ..we had a great storm last night. Loved it. <img src="..
One of the most crucial things about living with HIV is taking medication. There is a whole list of medications now available to people in the west to help people living with HIV to continue to keep living. Sounds good? Ill let you in on something. I first started taking the meds seven years ago. I was on the brink. My viral load was 1 mill
Marvin I dont believe I have made any "mistakes" in my life. My view of life is totally different to yours obviously. I consider life a series of lessons, of experiences. I dont believe anything to be right or wrong. I believe we either do something or we dont. Every action has a consequence, a reaction. I am so greatful of all the experiences I have had in my life. They all have helped me to be who I am today. From w
Thanks Trina_p! Im glad i can make it more real for you and other people. This virus affects alot of people in our community more than what most are aware of. Because of the meds people are living longer and well. Hope you enjoy the rest of the movie. The emotions are real.
Thanks Mack. If anything this has made me strong in all areas of my life. I appreciate your comment
Thanks Muggaz. much appreciated. there is a huge complaicency around at the moment that hiv is only a gay thing, im involved with some groups at the moment which researches the general population on this issue. Unfortunately alot of people have forgotten that this disease doesnt discriminate. The next wave is coming with this.
Thanks for reading Janders and for your encouragement.
Im going to take a little twist on my blogging. It's taken courage to write about this on here. At first I thought I shouldnt bring it up. But it is a part of me, and what has made me who I am today, especially how I view the world. So here it goes... Ive been living with HIV (Human Immunodificency Virus) since I was 18, I am now 31. In that tim
I woke up again this morning still feeling like I am in dreamstate. I dont like this feeling. I know something is about to happen. Why I dont like it is because I know something is about to happen but the thing is what. It is the what and when that I dont like. Last time this happened which was only a couple of weeks ago my whole family was turned upsidedown
How funny! thanks for making me laugh today
Hmmm wasnt the war in Iraq because Saddam Hussein had Weapons of Mass destruction? That were supposidly going to attck the USA? Hmm werent the Americans supposed to go to Iraq and save them from the torture that Saddam inflicted on them not actually go in there and do the same??
