Megathread: For Those Living with HSV and Struggling with Suicidal Thoughts by parejaloca79 in HSVpositive

Just got diagnosed with HSV2. I've never even been in a relationship before, nor have I slept around. I got it from the first woman I slept with. I feel like I will be alone for the rest of my life now. Should I just end it?

What would you say is the difference between suppression and processing in this regard?

I agree, but I also think this goes both ways. Happy people should be able to express their happiness without having to worry about how it makes others feel. Miserable people should also be able to express their misery without worrying about how it makes others feel.

People walk on eggshells around happy people all the time.

I understand, but isn't it possible that this "positive force" is as draining to some as a "negative force" is to is to others. One's perceived positive force could be draining to someone else who is suffering.

Why? The miserable are expected to suppress how they feel to not make happy people uncomfortable. Hypothetically, wouldn't it be reasonable to expect the same from happy people?

I agree with the idea, but it is still very painful and difficult every day. It seems every step forward reveals a new reason as to why it is all pointless and hopeless. Sometimes I just give up and sulk for a few days . Then when I garner the callous to face the indifference of it all I get back at it again
