Single-Page ViewNewly Diagnosed? Words of Encouragement from HIV-Positive Women
January 15, 2013

 |
Raven Lopez, Brooklyn, N.Y., diagnosed in 1991, at age 18 monthsI would just say, "Keep trying. I understand how you feel because I went through the same thing. But you just gotta keep your head up. You're still a human being -- but there is just this one thing, that we have the virus." What do you think is the first thing someone who has just found out they are positive should do? If they think that they are [positive] already, they should talk to a psychologist, set up somebody to talk to. Let it out and stuff. Don't do nothing stupid or hurt yourself. I would tell them to talk to somebody -- or they could even come talk to me. |
