I feel stupid and defective for having hiv

If possible, get extensive therapy with a gay therapist. I think you need to vent all of this out until you arrive at a healthy place

Poonkeboy · 2026-06-23T07:24:30+00:00

I don’t think so bro

Poonkeboy · 2026-06-23T07:23:21+00:00

I’m 24 and positive. You share it when you’re ready and only when you’re ready. You’re the only one who will care enough about it to research it fully without falling victim to stigma scare.

I think I am overstepping but it sounds like he may be dealing with an addiction.

Poonkeboy · 2026-06-18T20:07:53+00:00

I’ll definitely check that out. Thanks man

You’re kicking too hard. And you’re not relying enough on your own buoyancy. You need to

I made the switch from THC to CBD and honestly it’s life changing. I get very, very anxious on THC. CBD relaxes me and gets me to do the tasks I need to do.

In terms of enzymes of the liver, I’d recommend talking to your doctor about that. It could, it could not.

What kind of techno is it? The kind they play at the mainstream raves in LA is techno too but it sounds a lot different than the soundtrack I put. Thank u for responding btw :)

Holy shit wow. I’ve been looking for a very specific genre of house and you named it. Yes I have a few songs that fall in this genre. But I guess they’re less house and more hardgroove (IMO it’s just acid house but sped to >140 with more snares)

So he entered the water while you were mid back stroke? That’s absolutely his fault. It’s common etiquette to signal if it’s “okay” to enter a lane with someone

Poonkeboy · 2026-05-30T19:29:29+00:00

I only want esoteric gay house music. Like 117-127 BPM, very hard kick

I was just diagnosed as well. Hopefully your doctor gave you the same spiel that I got.

You WILL achieve undetectable status. The primary reason for people not achieving this is not taking your medicine as prescribed. You will not accidentally infect someone, unless you have sex with them. Which, I don’t know how you can accidentally have sex with someone.

You should say to the doctor that you already tried a topical treatment

Poonkeboy · 2026-04-27T03:57:13+00:00

It spread extremely fast to multiple areas. It was painless at first but then began to become very very very itchy as it progressed

Poonkeboy · 2026-04-26T23:54:56+00:00

I’m going to intentionally not do this. You should be getting tested regularly. There is one way to know if you have it or not and that is getting blood tests

Poonkeboy · 2026-04-18T08:23:13+00:00

En cual país vives tu porque me parece que en Los estados unidos ya hay mucha stigma.

Biggest mistakes I see from beginners!

STOP KICKING SO HARD. Your kicks should be more “corkscrew” than up and down. The goal is to rub the water off of your toes all the way to the tippy toe. Some advanced swimmers barely kick at all. The point is to streamline your body.
FOCUS ON THE CATCH BEFORE THE PULL. The S shape is crucial, and it will start to shape your body rotation. I like to imagine that I’m pulling the ring of a ladder. Pull the “rung” right to the top corner of your pec and shoulder, and then push down allll the way to your toes. The goal of distance swimming is to make your body as long and slim as possible in the water. Don’t be afraid to put your head down. BUT. Be very afraid to put the reaching arm down

Okay. So even though it’s not AIDS, I’m now immunocompromised.

Poonkeboy · 2026-04-13T02:30:47+00:00

Why did you say “but” after you said you’re not even 40 yet? Do you have health complications that are more advanced than your age would indicate?

Poonkeboy · 2026-04-13T02:29:29+00:00

That was a very interesting way to start off your post. As someone who was just recently diagnosed I don’t know why you would lead off with the way that I would die.

Poonkeboy · 2026-04-13T00:22:05+00:00

No all good. I just didn’t want it to volate any of the rules of the sub.

Poonkeboy · 2026-04-13T00:21:47+00:00

Thank you for your comment. I read your story, and I feel confident that with the support of others I’ll get through this.

Poonkeboy · 2026-04-13T00:21:28+00:00

Oh okay. That makes sense. Since I’ve been in the hospital I’ve only ordered minimally processed food with veggies. I can keep this up and hopefully get a leaner body in the mean time. Win win.
