TRANSCRIPT:
It's actually a little emotional being here.
I did not immediately want to come out my HIV diagnosis, just cause all the stigma and shame that was wrapped around it. So I kind of kept it to myself for a long time.
HIV is contracted sexually and we still live in an era where people think that a sexually transmitted disease is something like the worst taboo ever.
I want people to know that is a chronic manageable illness.
I have friends, I have a partner, I have a son, I go to school, I work, and I take a pill to manage my HIV.
Me reaching an undetectable viral load kind of took the weight of living with HIV kind of off of me.
Now I sit my medications right on the edge of my vanity, right next to my toothbrush to make sure that I take it in the morning.
I want you to know that HIV is something that you can live with and you don't have to feel ashamed or afraid.
