If *you* found out you had HIV....
 

What would you do?

Kill myself , literary

So you'd kill yourself by smacking yourself on the head with Dickens' book?

move out of Bangkok and try to get a grip on myself.

What good would that do though?

Wouldn't ya wanna do some other shit before you offed yourself?

i'd probably have bigger problems, since i don't have unprotected sex or shoot up, i would likely have gotten it at a hospital or something to that effect. so i would have bigger problems to worry about and then i'd sue someone.

i'd feel like magic

I would seek out one of the best alternative medicine...um, alternatives. I've watched this horrific disease take too many of my friends, but it oftens seems the "cure" is as bad as or worse than the disease.

Obviously, I would re-evaluate what I wanted to do with the rest of my life, be it five years or fifty. (Funny how we all tend say something similar when faced with the idea of death, but don't bother to consider it when faced with the idea of life.)

ahaha pun intended?

I'll kill the bitch who gave it to me, then kill myself :winkwink:

Id ask amacontent for free content:)

Damn what's with all the suicide?

I'd find a nice HIV-themed club and fuck and fuck and fuck cuz you KNOW dem AIDS bitches be horny. Like the "herpes" ads in the personals section...

1) Odds of success are tripled
2) You know they are probably into some crazy shit
3) No more condoms
4) Party time get down

spizzy rizzy mah nizzzy

you know you like it. :Graucho

HIV/AIDS isn't a death sentence these days - so first thing u do is get the best medical care. Then you live pretty much normally. Finding a chick would be hard but not impossible. But i guess alot of masturbation and handjobs from strippers and hookers would be ok if u can't find anybody.

or turn gay, lots of HIV positive people to have sex with.

getting terminal cancer is another story, i'd never go to the doctor again, they make your last days miserable. i'd get some cyanide or whatever combination of drugs that would kill me fast and painlessly so i call the shots when I am ready to go - no way I want to spend a week or a month in pain and freaking out .

spend my whole fucking money in aids foundations

I'd go live in brazil

Just the thought of it is making me shiver. I'm careful so
I don't I can have HIV.

isnt it about time there is a cure for this shit? cant we get some chinese or other smart people scientists working on this shit - im sick of these fucking pharmaceutical companies getting filthy rich and doing nothing for research into a cure. i dont believe in crop circles or the boogie man but i think this is bullshit and i think people with hiv are being FUCKED - if you dont believe pharmaceutical co's are greasing palms to not find a vaccine - fuck i dont know. if i caught it - fuck even without it, i wanna do something to help towards the fucking cure - fuck this live with it shit, this is b.s. that is making criminal business assholes rich.

i really don't understand the logic behind these kind of conspiracy theories.. the whole "pharamaceutical companies could have a cure if they wanted to" thing.. in the US, there is no price regulation on drugs. if they had a cure they would be selling it for whatever price the market could bare. in the case of something like an HIV/AIDS drug the price would be pretty damn high, they would make trillions.

I think that the logic is that there's a lot more to be made from treating a disease than there is to be made from curing it. In crass terms, treatment creates a long-term recurring customer...

ask juicy who else he has been sleeping with

party hard till I died (or suicide)

Yeah, treatment for life.......... And aids treatments are already damn expensive. Who the hell could afford the cure if they charge like 100K for it? Most people with aids can't afford it.

suicide

drug dealers make money on the monthlies - just like webmasters. Same biz model - give a little away for free. Why do you think doctors have all the free samples? if you only gotta pay once and then the disease goes away, noone makes any more money off of it.

right, but the US government grants exclusive patents for a reason. the first company to patent the drug has exclusive rights to sell it. no drug company would opt not to patent an AIDS cure so that they could sell existing treatment drugs. they just wouldnt risk losing the patent.

With everything that has been going on with hiv latley this question is actualy a good one :thumbsup I am very happy that I have kind of stopped the hardcore fucking and put my focus on gettting off from some pretty hot feet.. To anwser ya ? I would be shocked to a point but with my life and what I am used to im used to getting fucked at the end! So If I got Hiv I think it would change my life it would open my eyes more then they are now, I would spend as much time with my family and put things like business the net behind me and focus on making my family more important then anything else!


I would try to work a tad bit harder but not spend as much time as I do now to make a few extra $$ I would start a will, and try to take care of my two babies so when I am gone they will have a little nest egg.. I prolly take my video cam and so something really crazy and stupid in public I would try to do a lot more with life then I do now.. *shrugs* It is scary to really think about this.. and with the recent Hiv scare it atleast made me stop and think about my own protection... it sucks that something like this has to make people including myself stop and think HEY IF IT HAPPENED TO HER/HIM THEN IT COULD HAPPEN TO ME :(

Tom

give money to people who you own

HOW DID I know you would of said something like this lmao

find a few aids bitches and fuck all day/night without condoms, and get paid to give speaches at highschools/colleges, and i'd smoke weed 24/7 in hopes of finding a cure:thumbsup

If you get good medication and care you can live a pretty normal live with HIV.
I heard that if you start with treatment fast you can live for like 30 years.... gotta hope they have the cure by then.

All of you act like if you had HIV that you would automatically get AIDS and die. You can live a full life with HIV with out ever getting AIDS. It's just the chance of getting AIDS is alot more greater when you have HIV.

I lost a friend very recently to AIDS. He had lived with HIV for about 12 years, and last year the drugs that prevented the virus from turning into AIDS suddenly just stopped working. It's unknown why, but I have a feeling that his body just built a resistance (ironic, isn't it?) to them.

John still loved, laughed, and lived through HIV. He was Nazi about his meds, took them like it was a religious honor or something, I never saw or knew of him missing a single dose. But it took HIV to get him off the heroin addiction. I don't think it was a fair trade, but he risked it and lost. He never denied it, and never made excuses about it.

He wasn't a saint by any means, but I learned a great deal about human adaptation and spirit through his battle. Most of the time, I didn't even think about him having HIV. No one did, really, with a couple of exceptions. One of those exceptions was the little MedAlert tag he wore that had HIV + enscribed on it.

Another time was the adamant refusal of an EMT to touch John after John had a car wreck. That EMT was fired and sued.

I miss John. I miss him a great deal. If I were ever diagnosed with HIV, I would hope that I could adapt and live as well as John did. I doubt it, but I can hope.

RIP John. 2/14/70 - 1/15/04
