Having a really hard night. When will knowing I have it not bother me

2

I think with anything time softens how we feel about stuff, When something just "is" it is easier to cope with...kind of like a routine. I dunno, what does everything think?

I've been wondering the same thing.

Me too

For me, it started to not bother me anymore the more I researched about it and the more open I became with people about it. I'm way more open than most people about it. It just frustrated me how like for example one of my roommates has crohns and can go around talking about it but I couldn't talk about mine so I decided to. I told my roomates and close friends and got the stupid sterotypes out of their heads. It was the biggest relief and weight off of my sholders. Now to me it's just something I have and I don't think about it as being an STD or it making me a horrible dirty person because it doesn't. I am still the same person I always have been. I have learned to own it and rather than hide behind it, I educate my friends and select family.

I wish I could be more like that ^ :'( I've had it for a couple years and have never told a soul except for the **** that gave it to me.... I feel like I'm living a doubble life... The nightmare in my head and the nightmare outside of it :(
