Mental

I have never really talked with anyone about my feelings.

HIV has opened me up to so many people, places, prejudices, and misconceptions while completely shutting me off from the rest of the world. HIV had me convinced that no one would love or care about me. I would always be stuck in poverty, lack, doubt and hatred. I was a victim of self-induced stigma.

Mentally I know I need help. The only problem is I am a Christian. Christians don't go to therapy. They just pray, go to their Pastor for counsel and/or go to the altar for prayer. Hmmmmmm.
