I am from Nairobi,Kenya. I have searched and searched but can't seem to find any form of Support groups from where I am. I think in Africa generally, HSV isn't something talked about much or tested that often so most people do not know they have it. For us who do know, it feels very lonely. I am not looking for a hookup. I just want to see if I can connect with people closer to where I am.
If you are in a similar position, from whichever country, please feel free to share your experience.

So I lost my info to my other account but about 3 years ago I was diagnosed with HSV2. Only 17 Had Only had sex less than a handful of times. The close friend I gave my virginity to, my boyfriend I was on and off with due to me breaking up with him, and my first No strings art attached encounter (which was still with a male friend I knew well). Nobody has ever stepped forward to take claim of my diagnosis or to apologize and be accountable. I still remember that night in the emergency room after being in pain for over a week and my mom sitting there telling me if it was serious she "wasn't going to help me" as soon as we walked out the doors that night. Not only that , she cut my phone off the next day so my doctors couldn't call me with my results. They called her so even though I know I have it and took the antivirals to clear it up I never really got that closure from anyone. The people in the ER didn't offer much insight except "It's not life threatening, it's not that serious, and to just wear a condom if I'm having sex specifically during an outbreak but that I wouldn't be having sex during an outbreak because it'd hurt." . After long long nights of losing myself to the mercy of google I stumbled across this site and though some stories completely made me obsess more, I will say it has helped me tremendously. My mother and I haven't talked about my diagnosis since, and so I don't feel comfortable crying to her. IM HAVING MY FIRST MAJOR OB SINCE THAT NIGHT and I can not stop replaying everything in my head and feeling like a complete waste of space. I'm in pain, I can't get the burning to stop. I tried a cooling aloe based gel but if anything it's irritating the skin more, my care team at my hospital is taking a while to respond to help get a prescription in and I just feel alone in all this. I know there's nothing unique about my case and that I should be more than grateful i haven't been having horrible back to back OB's but shit. Like fuck me , I just don't understand.

Hey @Amnprsc I wouldn’t do anything too dramatic. Can you seek medical advice on what’s going on. Thats not likely to be related to herpes. -

As per title I got 4-5 tiny warts in pube area from leftover outbreaks, how to get rid off of them? Is it a a bad idea to use a nailcutter and suffer through it? 😄 Or is there some oil/cream that I could use? -

This is ridiculous I have been trying to delete my account for weeks. I have sent emails to honeycomb support and have not received an email back. Why is there no "delete account" option under our settings tab? It shouldn't be this hard. -

the first & 3rd picture represent lesion in its current state, the pictures of more shine/redness represent use of ketaconazole ointment for fungal suspicion, otherwise lesion is dry, in fold of penis skin & painless, bloodless, no pimple like appearance, or bumps! Just a flat and once flaky splotch that when skin unfolds comes together as a roundish splotch. I am sorry about the size, & now lack of quality in pictures. I used an app to reduce their size & am really bad at using technology. I am mostly perplexed about the use or lack of need to use valtrex & the appearance single lesion and any input knowledgeable users may have of its appearance. Thanks again for any input.
