Positive Living

HIV management today looks profoundly different from what it did thirty years ago — and yet the emotional landscape of the diagnosis, the daily relationship with medication, and the questions about disclosure, relationships, and long-term health remain deeply human and often insufficiently addressed. The writers in this collection speak to that landscape plainly and without sentimentality.

Inside this volume

Fifty first-person accounts describe life with HIV at different moments: the diagnosis, the beginning of antiretroviral therapy, the adjustment to daily medication, the disclosure decisions, and the experience of living with an undetectable viral load over time. Some writers have been living with HIV for decades; others are newly diagnosed. The range of experience and the range of feeling they describe is wide.

Who it's for

For those newly diagnosed with HIV, those who have been managing it for years, their partners and families, and anyone who wants to understand what HIV management looks and feels like from the inside.
