I was recently diagnosed with HSV 2 back in April 2021. The news has been devastating and hard to accept. I was intimate with one person since December of 2020 and he recently disclosed he had unprotected sex with someone else. He said he results came back negative which makes me confused. We’ve been having six for months and everything is fine he then goes and sleeps with someone else and now I have an incurable STD. This week I’ve experienced my second outbreak and every feeling/emotion I felt back in April has came back. I wasn’t expecting to have another outbreak so soon. I feel disgusting. I feel like I will never be able to have a relationship because I keep thinking who would want me. I also feel like I can never have sex again. I have a great support system around me but even with their encouraging words it’s still upsetting. I’m trying hard not to let my sadness consume me about this situation since I have a depression disorder but it’s really hard. Every time I think about it I just want to cry.
