My husband has had cold sores all his life and we had no idea that he could give me HSV1 through oral sex. I now have HSV1 on my genitals and the outbreaks are annoying and painful, especially because they're frequent due to being triggered by my diabetes. I feel gross and alone and I have been skittish about having any sexual relationship with him anymore. I'm constantly worried and stressed that I'll get an outbreak, I cry when I'm alone and my depression is at an all-time-low as is my self-esteem and confidence. How do I pull up from this? How do I get back to feeling feminine, confident and not like I'm some disgusting thing?
I totally understand my Boyfriend doesnt even hav it and i thinks he looks at me lik that even though he says he doesn't.....if u hav it dwn their its Hvs2 thats wat i have....and as long as he was having an outbreak your chances of gettin it became way high...i found out friday and i jst stop cryin sunday morning because its apart of me now and the virus doesnt mak me who i am even tho sex will b a little different u can still make it fun dont b herpes positive be positive about having herpes. You and your husband can get through this together which is important....talk to eachother look up information together and sit and tlk to your doctor together and i promise everything will b fine
Also try soaking in Epsom Salt b4 bed its a miracle worker.....and try not to stress Herpes is triggered by our stress levels and can cause serious longlasting outbreak the more as time goes on the less youll notice it.....the first one is the worst one thats what the Doc said....keep a clear head
