Your Online Family
Hey, welcome to our forum. This is a place for people who have HIV to share and support each other. We know it’s not easy to live with this condition, but we believe we can still enjoy life and have hope. We talk about different topics that help us cope and grow as individuals. We respect each other’s opinions and feelings, and we try to uplift and inspire one another.
By communicating with each other concerning coping with HIV and AIDS we develop a higher degree of self-esteem and self-awareness moving us beyond our personal circumstances.

Living with HIV
Love in Action
Living with HIV can be challenging, but it is possible to live a long and healthy life with proper medical care. If you have recently been diagnosed with HIV, it’s important to see a healthcare provider who can help you start medicine to treat HIV as soon as possible.
Treatment with HIV medicine, also called antiretroviral therapy (ART), is recommended for all people with HIV, regardless of how long they’ve had the virus or how healthy they are. Note: This is not medical advice, see your health care professional.
HIV medicine can reduce the amount of HIV in your blood to an undetectable level, which can help you stay healthy and prevent transmission of HIV to others. There are many other benefits of starting HIV treatment early, including longer survival, lower risk of cardiovascular disease, decreased risk of severe opportunistic infections, and decreased risk of perinatal transmission for pregnant people
If you need support, you can ask your healthcare provider for help finding a local HIV support group. You can also learn about how other people with HIV have handled their diagnosis and their journey on treatment for HIV by viewing video stories at Positive Spin or at CDC’s Let’s Stop HIV Together.
I hope this information helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.
