I am learning to live with my HIV, yes it is hard but I think i'm doing ok right now. A little depression here and there but not as I was when I first found out. I would love to meet new friends. One thing I would also love to meet is my solemate.

Prayer
I was recently diagnosed end of July 09 and my doc started on Atripla too, it's a scary situation , iI was pertrified before I started, it's only natural, but I think it's a great drug.Soon after I took it, it just took over my body, I could hardly walk to my bedroom which is only 12ft away. If i had nightmares I don't remember because I was too scared to the following day was pretty much drowsy, most of it. It lasted less than a wk and now it's like taking a baby asprin. So don't be scared try it out see how it will work for you. Pray a lot, I did and still. So far so good.Mind you my #s are 1/2 yours and I am very hopeful that it will work.
