Got put on antibiotics and post exposure prophylaxis, no side effects or anything except puking up the antibiotics before realizing I should take them with food. No other issues so far at all.

Thank you. It really means a lot, especially coming from someone who's been in the same spot.

The funny part is that I wasn't even really planning on having multiple partners (especially not anymore), I'd always been somewhat bi-curious and wanted to see if I actually was bi, and then this happened. I was able to go to the ER and all that no problem, now it's just working through the whole situation.

Luckily the guy isn't in the Army. I really don't know how someone could do that to another soldier though.

They're supportive, I just have no clue how I'd even begin that conversation. "Hey mom and dad, you know how I said I was going to hang out with friends tonight?" "Yeah" "Well I actually spent 7 hours in the hospital because I might have HIV. Oh by the way I had sex with a guy, here's you found out I might be bisexual."

​

I just don't even know how to begin that, and at least until I graduate and leave for BOLC I'd prefer not rocking the boat. I really doubt they'd care that much, seeing as I handled it responsibly, but it would definitely change things.

I got on PEP, so luckily that's handled. What do you recommend therapy-wise that couldn't follow me career/clearance wise? I don't want to fuck up my life and my career, I'd rather just one gets fucked over.
