First STD/HIV screening

[bander66]

So I've been attending a youth group(13-20) for the GLBTQ community every wednesday for the last 3 weeks and have decided to get my first STD/HIV screening. They gave me the number of a teen clinic, who after days of trying to get through told me the first definite appointment I could make was for Feb 10th. But I'm the kinda person where once I set my mind to something I HAVE to do it. So I called my school clinic and made an appointment for tomorrow. Yikes! Any advice? I've only bottomed for two guys, never topped but have traded oral with many people, so I am quite nervous.

Shower and brush your teeth first; be considerate of the pretty health care professional.

Advice? Yes. Take a big ol' deep breath and tell yourself there's nothing to worry about.

You haven't exactly engaged in high risk sexual activity, plus there's absolutely nothing you can do about your situation right now. Thinking about it will only make you feel anxious.

Glass half full instead of half empty, yes?

Get the rapid test if it is offered (and if you have the extra cash for it) it's a 30 minute wait verses a two week turn around. My local gay men's clinic has them for 30.00 and worth every penny in saved nerves.

Im in the same boat as you! Me and my friend(shes a chick lol) are schedueling a test tomorrow. Im nervous as fuck lol and I waited so long(I gave blood and I got my card last Spring so I know I didnt have anything then) but i'v been kinda slutty lately and I REALLY like this guy so im going to confirm that I have nothing(well im hopping!)

If you have been safe, you have little to worry about.

Clean underwear would be good.

Relax! If you've played safe, you'll be fine.

Don't worry. I think this workshop is actually great.

Try not to spring a boner when they take a swab from your dickslit.

1. You get +10 bonus points for actually getting tested.
2. Knowing is always better than not knowing. And if you played safe, there's nothing to worry about, really.

Keep the apointment.

Your statis is worrying you.

I cannot tell you how to feel until you find the result.

For me, the first time was intoleralbe, had not one to talk to, sat in fear.

The longest two weeks of my life.

If you want to chat or talk, let me know, I will be with you.

Don
