Anonymous asked: Are you scared? About being HIV+, about having people not understand you? By the way, I think you're amazing. You're so strong.

Dear Anonymous,

I’m scared. But, I know that being afraid is a waste of time. The time spent on being afraid can be spent on actually trying to overcome that fear.

I’m also frustrated with people who are ignorant about HIV/AIDS. It will take time and effort to get rid of the stigma that comes with HIV/AIDS. I understand that. All I can do is be patient and educate people with the correct facts.

Sincerely,

+PozLiving
