Before getting my hsv2 results, i was already struggling with my confidence and self esteem. I recently divorced and it has been so heavy. He cheated on me and i was already battling demons from all of that bs. I compare myself to so many beautiful women, and get depressed because i feel like im never enough. Then i get herpes. I feel numb, and i feel hopeless. I wont off myself, but god, do i think on it. It just feels like a battle every day. I’m doing my best to count my blessings. That i have job, an apartment, a family, and aside from this disease, a healthy body. But yeah. It has been….hard to move forward.

Any words of encouragement that got you by?
