SPFPP 297: Double Whammy
Our guest this week is a 21 year old who was recently like less than a week recently diagnosed with both HIV and HSV. His experience is very fresh so this podcast episode will be different than what you may be used to, but he was on board with sharing his fresh perspective which I know people are often seeking. We met today and he was willing to record today so we made it happen. Shoutout to him! I also want to point out the most incredible part of this man's story which is just how non-attached his identity is to his sexuality. I found his ability to speak to his identity to be very mature. I hope someone newly diagnosed has something to take away from this episode. If you’re a Black man living with herpes this is one to listen to. If you’re a Black man living with herpes and HIV, this episode could be validating to your identity. Explore the search bar on the herpes podcast page using search terms to find what you’re seeking.
