I AM HIV POSITIVE
One year ago I decided to go public about my hiv status by releasing the Dutch song 'Een goed gesprek'. Soon I was asked if I would release an English version.
I am very proud to share this new version with you today
A PLEASANT TALK
This is my story.
Feel free to share it in order to raise awareness about life with hiv. “A person living with hiv on successful treatment cannot transmit the virus to their partners,
can have healthy children and live as long as an hiv-negative person. #stopstigma .” www.apleasanttalk.com

“EL RIESGO ES CERO”
La investigacion (PARTNER II) realizada entre casi 1.000 parejas confirmó que tomar medicamentos antirretrovirales impide que se transmita el virus del VIH.
Fue realizado en Europa y publicado ayer 2 de mayo de 2019 en The Lancet, una de las revistas científicas más prestigiosas del mundo.
El estudio siguió durante ocho años a 972 parejas, en las que uno de ellos vivía con VIH y tomaba medicamentos antirretrovirales, y el otro era VIH negativo.
No hubo casos de transmisión del virus entre las parejas durante ese tiempo.
Esto se debe a que el tratamiento reduce el virus a niveles muy bajos en el cuerpo, niveles indetectables. "Nuestros hallazgos proporcionan evidencia concluyente de que el riesgo de transmisión del VIH a través del sexo anal cuando se suprime la carga viral del VIH es efectivamente cero", dijeron los investigadores.
Pese a que esta información se viene difundiendo hace algunos años, a partir de resultados de otras investigaciones, recién desde 2016 tanto organismos internacionales de Naciones Unidas como los portales científicos comienzan a dar certeza.
En Argentina, el Ex Ministerio de Salud de la Nación, ahora degradado a Secretaría, hace oídos sordos, no solo ignorando los avances científicos, sino también perdiendo oportunidades reales de disminuir el estigma. El miedo a transmitir el virus es uno de los obstáculos más difícil de sortear entre personas con VIH. Omitir esta información por parte del Gobierno es sin duda una violación expresa a los derechos humanos, por no acceder a la información, a la salud, y a una vida digna.
Exigimos a la @direcciondesida de la Secretaría de Gobierno de Salud la difusión de la información. Indetectable es igual a intransmisible, ocultarlo es ilícito.

Hello everyone, I am sorry I haven't been as active since being released from the hospital. I elected to admit myself to a partial hospitalization program and intensive outpatient program to better help me in my adjustment from the hospital, for further management of my medications, and to better process my trauma. I want to make sure this remains a space where I post because I feel like I have something valuable to contribute, not out of obligation. I am trying not to feel guilty and just respect that I need and deserve self care right now.
Thank you all for your lovely and supportive messages. Also, if you have sent me a dm and haven't gotten a response it is nothing personal at all. I receive many messages, most of which include disclosures of some kind. For the sake of my own mental health I respond when I am in the best place of mind to do so. The fact that people trust me with their trauma is incredible, humbling and not something I take lightly. You are all so incredibly strong and inspiring to me.
Comment below: What was your favorite lesson? What is your biggest lesson(s) learned as a survivor?
Leave a if you read this far.
When a musician, comedian, or author is lost to suicide, admirers are left to grapple with the shock and grief of losing such an impressionable figure. ⠀
⠀
Amid the confusion and sadness, some media sources insensitively report on what happened. Reporters ask questions like “How could this have happened? He had such a loving family. What did he have to be depressed about? Why would someone with so much money and adoration do this? She seemed so happy.” ⠀
⠀
Not only are these questions and statements ignorant, but this kind of reporting doesn’t serve those who are struggling with a mental illness with reassurance or support. It reinforces the notion of “How could I be depressed if I have nothing to be depressed about?” ⠀
⠀
Mental health conditions can affect anyone. Regardless of your life circumstances, there is never a wrong time to seek help if you’re not feeling like yourself. But the sooner you seek help, the better off you will be in managing it. You may feel undeserving of the help or that other people have life more worse off than you, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have the right to feel the way you do.⠀

‘Anyone who knew Violet well could tell she was thinking hard, because her long hair was tied up in a ribbon to keep it out of her eyes’ - Series of Unfortunate Events

There is a very interesting relationship between women and their hair. We are controlling it, taming it, or freeing it somehow using these as metaphors for our souls. Styling it to reflect our personalities, long, short, colored, wavy, curly, straight, shaved, woven, braids, up, down, ponytails and messy buns. When a woman wants to ‘reinvent herself’ one of the first notable things she does is change her hair. -
-
At times a woman’s hair can reveal her inner thoughts or her attitudes. Sometimes I have mine down and in my face if I am feeling shy or I am throwing it up out of my face because I am ready to take on an awesome project.

Having the ability to interact with our hair is important for women. 4 years ago a teenager with a limb difference shared with me that she was annoyed that she was unable to put up her hair on her own. The features of her arm made reaching behind her head, gathering hair, and navigate a ponytail holder a challenge. She shared that she had to decide in the morning if she wanted her hair up or down for school and having her mom complete the task. This worked fine in elementary and middle school sure, however now as a high schooler this became less fine- wanting to develop independence she asked how I put up my hair.
-
-
We sat there on the grass exploring various strategies and after a little while she did it on her own! It was messy and imperfect sure, but it was hers. She owned it. She was beautiful and powerful! -
-
In that moment I thought “This is what I want to do for the rest of my life” -
-
2 years later I started an Occupational Therapy program at Boston University.

Here’s to more projects and the freedom to express ourselves with our hair ♀️
