Hi, I’m Micha. I’m 15 years old and I was born with HIV. I found out I was positive when I was about 7. I always had to take meds but I never knew what for. My mom always told me not to let anyone touch my blood and stuff, but I had no idea what she was talking about.
But now I am fully aware of my status and it honestly doesn’t bother me too much. I still have sleep overs and do things any other teen girl would do. I HAVE NO LIMITATIONS :D
Well when I had sex for the first time, I didn’t tell my boyfriend about my HIV until days after. I was sooo scared to tell him – afraid that he would freak out. When I told him, he freaked out and did break up with me =( But after a while, he said he didn’t care and then wanted me back. But hey! Karmas a b***h, so I didn’t go back. I did find another love who does know about my status, and said to me many times he didn’t care at all, obviously this made me so happy.
I am still very quiet about my status to my friends. No one at my school knows because there’s too much of a risk of someone telling. But otherwise, I don’t let my HIV affect me in any way. I live the life of a normal teen, I have many friends, and have all the fun in the world. HIV doesn’t have to limit your life. I surely don’t let it! :D
