Even if he coughs up blood, you cannot get
HIV from touching the blood unless you
have open sores or cuts on your hand.

I have a hang nail on my finger but the
red spot was real little but now I am
wondering what if I had wiped it on my
face when I was crying, and that dumb on
call therapist made me so mad I am going
to report her to my therapist I am so
angry and stupid why didn't I distance
myself from him in the first place I am
about to die I know that I am I am so
scared to death man I am so stupid .

I looked at your past paranoid posts.
... scared to death of door handles
... scared to death of being poked by
needles on a subway
... scared to death of public washrooms
... scared to death of a pen handed to you
by a police officer
... scared to death of a dog leash that
touched the ground!!!!
Every time you post you're scared to death
you've contracted a disease/virus (usually
.H.I.V) from something innocuous.
Get professional help. If your therapist
is hanging up on you, get a new therapist
or get into an in-patient program.
I think the people in the .H.I.V forum
especially have had enough of your
paranoia.

I am not trying to offend anyone who has
HIV I use to share shoes with my cousin
w/o thinking about HIV I am so sorry if I
offended anyone I am just so upset
rightnow so I am so upset that I want to
find a cure for this disease so bad I
can't wait till that day comes. I was
getting better I started to touch
doorknobs w/o worrying and everything
everybody could see that I was doing
better until this incident. I love my
cousin but I just do not want to catch
that virus I got me a home access test at
home I prbly test at 6 weeks to ease my
mind I am trying to think about my future
but everytime I do that HIV pops up in the
picture last november I had a dream that I
had contracted HIV from blood flying in my
eye that is why I am so scared I look at
that dream as a warning that is why I try
to distance myself from my cousin. O yea
and he was the one in the dream I remeber
that night waking up sweating saying to
myself it is just a dream hopefully I am
right I pray every second of the day
please let me get better please help my
mental and keep me safe from all diseases
and to let me live a healthy life. I would
like to find a new therapist but I do not
have any money at all I only pay 5 dollars
a session.

You can't get HIV from sharing shoes, so
you can share your cousins shoes all you
want with no worries.

Check out some of the mental health forums
in here if you haven't already. They
might be of some help to you. This is
more of a mental issue somewhat related to
HIV than an HIV issue. So people in the
mental health forums might understand what
you are going through a little bit more
and be able to offer you tips and advice.

It is not a matter of her not having the
facts. She does have the facts and does
know about HIV, but she has an irrational
fear. That's what a phobia is. A lot of
people have a phobia of the dark, or
snakes, or spiders even though they know
those things usually will not hurt them.
Some people have such an extreme phobia of
those things that they can't even be in
the same room as a fake spider or snake.

Are you starting to notice that your
therapy is working more now, or is it
still about the same?

I don't know I have my up's and down's I
still don't go out as much my family think
that it's just everything that's happen to
me in the past has build up and cause me
to have this phobia. My therapist said
it's maybe because I was babyfied as a
child and still is babyfied.

Helleo everyone it's me again well I have
a problem again see I have this new job as
a front desk associate at a hotel and the
problem is that I work on the day of my
therapy and my therapist can not
reschedule her schedule around that is the
only time and day that she is aviable for
me. and for a minute I was getting better
but now I think that I am getting worst
again just recently I was at a hair salon
and this man that is on crack rung the
bell mu stylist had told me to get the
bell well I had got up and let him in real
quickly I mean I push the door open real
fast and than she said you shouldn't of
let him in he is a crackhead. I thought
that he work there because when I was in
the back getting my hair dried he came
back there walking past me I got so scared
thing of all the what if's. what if he
stuck me with a needle and I didn't feel
it or what if blood got on me or something
I got so scared to death I kin of want to
quit my job to seek therapy again because
I feel if I miss therapy that I am going
to go down hill again and I am trying to
go back to school again so that I can keep
my mind occupied.

I had not seen you in a while, so I
figured your therapy was going well.  That's too bad
that your schedule conflicts with your
therapist's. Is there any way you can see
a different therapist? You could ask your
therapist if she could refer you to
someone else.

I think that I could but I really like my
therapist, I really do when I come out the
office I feel better sometime she help me
to see that my fears are irrational and I
would really be upset to switch to another
therapist I don't know what to do.
