Well this is more of a comment, but kinda of a question.
Well here it is. When I was at clinic yesterday the two guys on the other side of me were talking about there livers. I asked if they had hepatist, they repled yes. I said I have hep C also. Latter I mentioned that how hep C and HIV can go hand and hand together. But how not everyone with hep C has HIV but alot of them so. Now I was talking to one of my other friends who is so paronid about everything. That he yelled at me and figured that I had no busines talking to those guys. I told him I wasn't breaking any privacy issues as no ones information was revealed unless they wanted to say something, but I wanted to say Im HIV that was my business. As I don't care who knows Im HIV. My friend Mike is weird he is just paronid of how people will treat him and also being gay. I tell him he needs to get out more and get a volunteer job to socialize with people. He makes up excuses of why he can't do as he just figured people will automatically know he has AIDS and is gay. I told him your not carrying a sign on your head so get over your self.
Mike says, he feels I should keep my mouth shut when I go to clinic and Im in waiting room. I told him I m a friendly person and enjoy talking to people and dont care what you think as I do thinks to make me happy and Im not hurting you or anyone else.
yea somepeoplejust freek out ,i'm not ashamed to tell people i have hiv/hepc
i am very outspoken also
I totally agree with you! I am not ashamed of who I am now or what I have to deal with. I don't go around telling the world but if I am in a place where I feel comfortable, even if it's with strangers, I don't mind talking about my issue. I support you for being open about things. Take care. ~Nate
