Obstacles with Diagnosis
What was your biggest obstacle with finding out your diagnosis?
I think that my biggest obstacle has been facing the stigma.
Stigma was a big one for me, but it wasn't the stigma from society it was the stigma I created in my head that internalized stigma and once I got over that I was just fine.. I think you're so right, and I still am struggling with this. A lot of the time I am not sure if I have made it up in my head or not. I am working on getting over the internalized stigma, and the thoughts from society. Thank you for your reply! -Ze (Team Member) your welcome.. in your time you will begin to deal with it..
Alafia (Peace) Disclosure was the biggest obstacle for me. Khafre (H-I-V.net Team Member) Alafia (Peace) I shared earlier my was disclosure. What I didn't share was that it took me nearly five years to share my status with my MaDear. Until that time only one part knew I was living with HIV. Khafre (H-I-V.net Team Member)
