I don't think anything is wrong with you son... You're just going through a phase.. it'd pass. I've been there too.. I felt dirty about myself, I felt violated and stained but I later got to realize that my having certain desires was not my fault.. It was just a call of nature and its our choice to decide whether to answer or not.. Whatever your choice is, it doesn't make you bad.. just ready yourself to bear the consequences. Thus I always say, Abstinence remains the best answer. . And don't ever feel that you've betrayed anybody.. its your life, its your body.. At the end, you decide what happens to it. 32 Likes 5 Shares |

yanabasee1:That's not right sir.. The Nwabueze I know is not opportunistic neither does he go back on his words. I have spoken with a lot of politicians and none has come close to this man in morals, responsibility and standing on the truth.. let us not use the yardstick of "politicians" to judge individual character Chris has been with the APC right from when it was just Ac- Action Congress.. He has been devoted and loyal to the party ever since.. You won't hear him brag about it or try to hustle for juicy positions.. He is just calm and calculating. He was on his own when he was called to become a minister and he never argued for a better portfolio.. He is not just the regular politician. 16 Likes 1 Share |

Toju200:Thank you Mr. Toju.. My conclusion was made through the pictures I see here, my eyes always go to their right thighs, but I don't see anything there. and my experience with the Nigerian Army 72 special forces battalion, Makurdi, Benue state, whom were placed on our security detail.. they looked like regular soldiers coupled with the Ak47 they were brandishing.. but I noticed that wherever we go and they introduce themselves, the other soldiers' there just light up with respect. Btw, Thank you for the clarification. 4 Likes |

Please, a quick one brothers, Why are our special forces guys yet to be equipped with the standard issued side-arm(pistol)?? I think its a necessary part of them being well armed. cuz I don't see how special they are if they are not superior in weapons unlike the regular army.. I think its not only about training and tactics. |

Kabe2:Wow. Thank you very much Mr. Kabe2, I felt really honoured receiving a mention from you. I stumbled upon the thread barely 5days ago and I've been following it judiciously ever since and yes, I'm a hugeee fan of big guns and military equipment.. if Nigeria was liberal towards guns, I think by now I would have had a personal stockpile of light and heavy equipments. I really love what you do here.. don't stop please. 4 Likes |

Amazinglyqueer:Dear Amazinglyqueer, I've been following your diary like my life depends on it. I've always had one or two things to pick up from each of your post and I want to thank you immensely.. Your analysis on the stages after being diagnosed is just apt and fearfully accurate.. my wife got stuck in the denial, anger and depression stage for too long. She denied the result to the point of going to different hospitals to run the test and even thought of flying off to India. She later directed all her anger at me after she knew that nothing can change the outcome of the test and blamed me viciously for her misfortune (disregard all the people saying under my post that she must have infected me thus she took it calmly). Then the depressed stage kicked in, and I actually feared that I would come back one day and see her hanging from the ceiling in suicide.. Thank God that didn't happen. After many excruciating months, she accepted and moved on.. and we moved on.. I cannot begin to tell you the number of things she destroyed in her depressed state. LoL.. They were all replaceable tho. So, Thank you my dear and keep doing what you're doing.. Its time we start opening up.. one day at a time. N.B: And if that guy messes up, don't worry, my younger bro is always ready and available..lol.. a very good lad. 2 Likes |
Family / Re: Mothers, How Did Your Husband React When You Were In Labour? by OutharryHIV: 5:23pm On Apr 22, 2020 |
My respect for my wife grew that day, last year, when I saw what she went through cuz of an act the both of us committed.. Hers started in a bank, where she went to do some transactions so that she would head straight to the hospital and wait for delivery. so when I got the call that my wife was in pains in an Ecobank in Ajah.. I cursed myself, I thought I had failed as a man for letting her go alone while I rush to do some business. My hands were shaking, I was driving like a mad man.. I got to the bank and was told she had been taken to the hospital.. everyone was touching my shoulder or hand to calm me down.. then the tears started.. One of the security guys had to drive me to the hospital. my sister and my wife's friend was already there. I didn't even know what to feel, I was about to be a father.. it felt strange tho. I entered the room and saw her screaming and blowing out hot air.. when she saw me, she kinda calmed down.. I think my presence brought her a little peace.. but that didn't save me from her pulling my shirt and telling me to remind her that I love her.. I was just nodding, saying incoherent things, I was crying and sharing her pains with her. that singular moment bonded us like never before.. Our twin boys came out strong and HIV-free.. our joy knew no bounds that day cuz that was our greatest fear that day. 113 Likes 5 Shares |

Eulalia:Hello Miss Eulalia, Thank you very much for your wise comment.. I can't lie,it has not been comforting taking the drugs, I get tired sometimes but I always console myself in the fact that there has been breakthrough in the cure which is going through clinical trials and will be rolled out in 3-4years.. but above all, I still hope in God. I'm sorry I couldn't make it more detailed and talk about all the pros and cons cuz I know how nairalanders behave to a long post so I tried to make it as short as possible and I wanted to focus more on the bright side because every other post out there tries to cast a dark shadow around the virus which causes more stigmatization for HIV patients. So I just want newly infected to know there is a glimmer of hope. 101 Likes 5 Shares |

Randy100:Just like every other drugs, arvs has their own side effects and just like other drugs, it affects a few people and doesn't affect others... I have not actually noticed any side effects although I was warned that there might be occasional dizziness or headache. I have been working in my full capacity ever since, I fall sick and treat malaria like I used to and become strong in 2 days.. HIV is not a death sentence.. non access to arvs drug can lead to death or waiting for pastors to heal you. 75 Likes 2 Shares |

NextD18:You actually have a point but I didn't give anyone a reason to keep having unprotected sex.. I've actually preached abstinence all my life... The reason I shared a personal story was to encourage those that already have it that there is still life.. You can live as long as you want. And someone with HIV is not a living corpse sir, choose your words wisely.. Their chances of growing old is high.. higher than sickle cell patients.. I thought you should know this actually judging from most of your comments I read here. 466 Likes 27 Shares |

Health / How I Found Out I Was HIV Positive!!! by OutharryHIV: 4:35pm On Apr 15, 2020 |
I "accidentally" found out I had HIV in 2015... Worst year of my life.. I know you might be thinking that I'm a promiscuous person but I assure you, I'm very far from that... So this is how it all started? I did my NYSC in my dad's company and finished in late 2014 and I was given a full year to go read a course I didn't even want. So I instead volunteered for Youth In Action Against HIV and poverty in Tanzania. My dad was furious but my mum understood. It was 6months filled with lessons, tears, experience and a firsthand witness to the sufferings of others... We tended to the poorest of the poor in rural Tanzania. I later came down to Borno and later North bank area of Benue state, I realized there were a lot of vulnerable people that are hungry and can't afford even cheap medical care thus they die of common malaria. I didnt stay long in Borno before I started having this feeling of fatigue and blurry vision, I thought it was cuz of the stress that comes with what I do, so I decided to go home. Few days after getting home I started feeling this head splitting headache, I thought it was malaria/typhoid of which a lab test later confirmed.. Out of curiosity, I told the doctor to run a full check up.. Just to be on a safe side.. Which he did.. You should imagine my surprise when he told me I was HIV positive.. Nothing has ever prepared me for that moment.. It was funny how a malaria treatment could turn to an HIV nightmare.. I thought of just ending my life right then. But i braced myself and took the drugs, I was surprised that it was free in Nigeria sef. I rushed home and took my girlfriend to run the test and it turned out that she has it too... We've been taking the drugs for the past 5years now with an high Cd4 count and a low viral load.. The virus is not detectable in our blood stream anymore and we are happily married and our first twin boys are negative. If you're out there and you've been in my shoes.. Its not the end of your life.. Life just happens and its not entirely your fault. I don't smoke, drink or live a reckless life or sleep around, like I've been in only one relationship all my life, so its not about your lifestyle. I don't know if I got it from the idp camps or my girlfriend(she was the only person I was with at that time), we just didn't care, we moved on. So lovelies, Take your ARV drugs, take fruits, eat well, within 3-6 months you can still have unprotected sex throughout your life with your partner without infecting them or your children.. You can live your life to the fullest and more. P.s: HIV patients do not look skinny and dried up.. That's just an archaic stereotype... It is also not a death sentence. 1540 Likes 180 Shares

Dr. Joe just said it as it is.. Heathrow airport was like its normal self.. non of the officials were putting on face mask even though the country already has an high infection rate.. Coming into MMA1 was like walking into a war zone.. with all its checks and officials ready for the inevitable, I was surprised when I saw the news that there was no screening at the airport. 27 Likes 2 Shares |
