two days ago my husband came back from the hospital and he tested Hiv positive, i went for my own test and it's also positive.

Kx:

This cant be true.
Person wen just know say him get HIV will be 2 lost to even think of using the internet let alone telling d whole world of her hiv status.

Ladyange_A:

b] Please what do u think, sometimes i feel like taking my life away i know it will be suicide which is not good but im confused tell me what to do.[/b]

i think what the doctor said is your best option. continue taking the anti retroviral drugs, dont miss a day and eat healthy, vegetables, fruits etc, also try not to get stressed out cause it will definitely have an impact on your immune system. you have to make sure your CDC is above 200. and depending on high it gets to the average of most normal people, the doctor may take you off it (AR drugs).  

please dear, taking your life isn't and will never be the answer to the problem, yea, most people go through tough time with such news, but it is not the end of life. remember HIV is not a death sentence, and most people get through it.  don't let it overcome you. you have HIV, HIV doesn't have you (keep that in mind and be strong)  be prayerful, if possible go for counseling. also make sure your husband is also taking his own drugs, especially if you are still intimate with him, cox it serves you no good taking the drugs while he isn't and you still sleep with him.

Best of Luck

Hello poster, things might have fallen apart but it doesn't mean the world has come to an end. We are all afraid of AIDS because we know that our days are numbered once we test positive.

What is the essence of taking your life? If you take your life, what difference does it make? Do not be afraid of death rather be afraid to die a sinner.

The most important thing is to live your normal life.There are millions out there who suffer more than you do.You are among the lucky ones. I said you are lucky for the following reasons:-
1. You are already married and you are excepting a baby. Many are in the same situation but they have no family and soon their names will be forgotten in the history of the world. No one to remember them.No generation.
2. Your husband is also positive; that means he won't make life miserable for you. I believe you both are mature to enjoy life to its fullness.
3. You still have the whole time to raise a family, give your children the best education, see the smiles on their faces while they grow up, give them the best of mother's love. They still need you. Please live for the sake of them.

I know a couple who are still alive and it has been more than 11yrs when a doctor broke the news to them. What are secrets. It is nothing but they put smiles on their faces all the time. Eat their healthy foods.Follow adhere to their treatments. And they look so healthy up till this very moment. HIV patients start dying as soon as worry sets in. Don't allow that be you.

Finally, if you think of committing suicide, I suggest you first take a walk to any general hospital. Look at the sick people around there. Spent at least thirty minutes with them. Then from the hospital, go straight to the mortuary tell the attendant to open the door for you. Just spent about 15minutes watching the immobile men/women/children as they lie as if they were never born.

After that, I believe you will realize the amount of love God have for you.Please never think of suicide again.It pains me even though we don't know each other. Enjoy your life. Everyone has his own problem.So you are not in any trouble. Everyone has always been in trouble from the moment Adam and Eve left the garden of Eden.
