Help, Still a Little Worried Posted: 06-22-06 07:17am
I have a question, I currently live in
japan, the hiv/aids is very low here.
9,000 to 12,000 people have hiv/aids out
of 175 million people. Well I met this
japanese girl we have protected sex, we
had have sex for 5 days straight. I knew
her for awhile before we had sex. But I
wanted to cum inside of her, so before I
cum I pulled off the condom and put it in
her for at leact 30 secs then I got up pee
and wash my dick. Well I had no worries
what so ever, I know her sexual past, she
only have unprotected sex 1 time for only
2mins and that was 2 months before she met
me. Then a few days later I got a rash or
at least I thought it was, my skin color
is brown and the spot was dark brown.
Well a week later I met my gf we had sex
on the first date. I didnt have a condom
and I wanted to use a condom but she didnt
want too she said she was clean and we had
sex. But then you know I started to worry
a little about the spot on my leg I
thought it was a ringworm because another
spot showed spot showed up. I went to
medical and they said it was a infection,
I most likely got it from the military
ship I was on. The ship I was stationed
on is very very old and it is dirty. I
met the japanese women in person a few
days after I got off the ship so that made
sense. Well 6 wks after I met japanese
girl I got a hiv check-up and other
disease. From my knowledge they all came
back negative if they came back positive
the military would kick me out, so I began
to move on with my life with my new gf.
Well I was sent back to the ship and I
cussed at someone who outranked me and I
got in trouble. People labled me as a
angry man, I was messed with and yelled at
alot and I had to do a lot of stupid and
morale breaking things. Well I fell into
deep depression quickly, then one day I
was watching the news on the ship and they
were talking about hiv in africa.
Suddenly my mind focused on that and I
became paranoid and I started adding up
events in my life that happen and started
to make up my own symptnoms. I became
worried and I was still stuck on the ship
with lack of sleep and mustering 5 times a
day. So I just got more and more in
depressed. Well I couldnt get my mind off
of my worries. I told my gf to get a
checkup so 11weeks after she met me got a
checkup it came back negative. I was
relxed but then I kept on reading and
reading about hiv online and it started to
impair my judgment. Usually I get short
pain in my legs because of old injuires.
As I was running up some long stairs I
might have pulled a muscle a little. So I
went to my bed and laydown and then I
remember muscle acnes was a sign, so I had
a major anxiety attack like I never had
before. I wanted to kill myself, I felt
so much pain inside and no one knew what I
was going through. My family hasnt talked
to me in long time I live far far away
from them. So I got up and talked to my
friend and he calm me down, I really
wanted to die. Well finally I got off the
ship and I was able to walk on land after
6 to 7 weeks. After I had that attack my
muscles started to hurt. But then I went
to medical and talked to the doctor he
told me I was ok. The likely hood was
very slim to none because of where I am at
and my exposure time. Well it calm me
down a little but I was still depressed
and having problems in my head. Well as
time more on I was afraid to move on with
my life. I was afraid to step forward in
my career because if I am infected I am
get kicked out of the military and I have
no life after that and my family will not
accept me so death would be my only
option. But I kept my mind off of it and
things started to go away, I still felt
like I couldnt do anything in my life. I
did feel fatigue but that was all in my
head because when I ran I ran so fast that
I broke my record and that was the first
time that ever happened. I then started
to notice it is all in my head. I still
got anxiety attacks time to time, but I
usually push it out of my head. I never
got fatigued, my sicknesses were all
natural. Well I have asthma and I was
going running one time and I tried a new
way to inhale my asthma medicine and after
that I got a liltte dry throat because I
inhaled it when I sprayed it. I did have
a anxiety attack and it only seemed worst,
my head was still messed up. Well there
was a guy in my unit that was sick, I was
always next to him and I really got a soar
throat so I new it wasnt a soar throat.
Well that sickness I got from him went
away after taking medicine. So I new it
was all in my head and a certain way that
I swallow that gives me this reaction.
Now 6months have passed and I should get a
check to finalize my fear. But I am to
afraid because I dont want to get kicked
out of the military I have no where to go
or live after that. But I am still dating
my gf. So I never got a 6month checkup,
my gf and I was talking about getting
married, but she has to get a medical
checkup, so 8months after we met she she
got another hiv- checkup and she came back
negative. Now we have unprotected sex
every weekend for at least 4 times for
8months, except the time when I was gone
for 6 weeks and another 2 weeks when I
went home. I pull out most of the time
before I cum. But I always have precum.
But I am still having anxiety attacks but
very very minor than before. I am a lot
cool headed now. But I still wonder, is
it possible after 8months of unprotected
sex with the same person every weekend she
can still be hiv negative and I still can
be hiv pos? I have been faithful to her,
it is just woman I had sex with a week
before her. But my worries are going
away and I am getting out of depression.
Everytime I go to the gym or do something
that pushes me forward in life. I always
feel alot better. I didnt take any
medication for depression, I am just
getting through it my own way. But to
ease my mind I am asking this question. I
do have to get the checkup soon because it
is going to be a one year mark soon.
Thank all of you for your help. I never
really had any synptnoms it is more of a
guilt trip and depression that made me
realize I could have made a big mistake.

Anyway its a long story. However, I
would address your depression and your
present situations.
1. Depression is something that easily
catches up with risk behavior individuals.
And it doesnt go away unless you are
tested and get your thoughts clear.
2. Being trying to settle your life with
a new gf, its more responsible to get
yourself checked, and not pass the
infection to others knowingly or
unknowingly.
2. Getting your gf tested will in no way
tell your status.
So the most important thing is that you
should get tested, and once found
negative, you are negative and dont get
your depression to overrule you

hi, thank you for your reply. Yes it is a
long story and a lot of confusing I am
sure.
Well the depression started when I got in
trouble, the military is strict when it
comes to rank, well I yelled at someone
that outranked me. I was deeply and
severly punished for my actions. What I
did caused me to be really depressed and I
look at things I did a long time ago and I
began to worry. I have lack of sleep, bad
knees and constantly being yelled at for a
long time, that is why they did to me it
is more than that but I cant state the
rest. I was never a risk behavior person,
I always use condom. This was the first
time I took a chance before, we have
protected sex but before I cum I pulled
off condom put it in her. It was really
no more than 30secs. I did get tested 6
to 7 weeks after this occurred I was
negative so it was all cool, it takes a
month for me to get results back so more
like 11wks. I met my gf my gf is a risk
person so I had her get a checkup and she
was negative/ my gf and I have
unprotected sex 4 times every weekend.
She also got a checkup 8months after we
first met. I didnt know it could take as
long as 3months to test positive. So I
was just wondered what was the odds. Now
the girl which I had a encounter with.
She has unproteced sex one time. I do
know her she tells me everytime for months
and months she is clean. But depression
can really mess up your head. Also hiv is
very very small in japan. My gf tells me
not to worry and so does my doctor and
many friends. But I just think of my odds
so I post it hear to get someone point of
view as well. I was just asking because I
got a checkup at and she got 2 checkup, I
got my at 6wks, she got her 11weeks and
then 8months, I was just wondering should
I be concerned or should I not worry?
Everyone else tells me not to worry. I am
not the type of person to take risks so I
worried about this because I am new at
sex. I still talk to the woman I messed
with before, she stills tells me not to
worry either we are friends. So should I
be worried? I dont worry so I am just
asking should I be worried? I hate to
ruin my life like that for a 30sec
mistake. Even when I was a kid I worried
so I stop having sex for almost 5yrs.
