Know Your Limits
Safer Sex Tips:
- Protect yourself.
- Stay mindful of your sexual limits. Identify ways to ensure you use a condom.
- Tops need condoms too. Topping without a condom still holds significant risk for HIV transmission.
- Reapply lube frequently to prevent the condom from drying out and to prevent the lining of your rectum from tearing, both of which increase the risk of HIV transmission.
- Condoms wear out. Change the condom when having sex for long sessions. Check to be sure the condom is still intact.
- Discuss your HIV status with your sex partners and ask them to share their status with you.
- When having oral sex for extended periods of time, check the condition of your mouth — you might not notice whether your mouth is chafed or sore. Drink water throughout the night.
- You can further reduce your risk for HIV and other sexually transmitted infections by using a condom when having oral sex.
- Check your partner’s dick for sores or scratches.
- Having a sexually transmitted infection can increase the chance of HIV transmission.

I personaly have come to know the danger of meth. First it started as recreational experiences by smoking meth. And having as much sex as possible with as much guys as possible too. Thats how I hot hiv. After a few years I, on one night I combined meth with a few joints/hash/weed, which lead to my first psychosis. Three days of booty bumps and so on without sleeping. I thought I was strong and could handle it. In the years to come I became more addictive, there were periods I didnt use meth but other drugs like cocaine and speed, also very dangereous drug wich can make you psychotic. Then I discovered injecting meth, my CD4 levels dropped to a staggering 50 points. Last year my psychological health deteriorated to that of out of control behaviour, hearing voices all day long while being on meth and seeing things wich are not there. Pure fear and horror. This year my usage was at its peak, I injected meth every week, one evening of meth costed me 6 days to recover, I became completely paranoid and I did 2 suicide attempts while being on meth, because it really fucks up your head. The instant rush wich takes a few minutes together wish a slower longer rush of a few hours is NOT worth losing you life for , or in the worst scenario (I cam very close) even dying: I lost my work, my house, my fourniture, my health, lost weight, no where to go, if it wasn't for my loving mother who has had a terrible year with me, I would have wondered the streets and perhaps would have died by now. I was lucky she kept believing in me untill last week I was very strong: I deleted dealers numbers and threrw away all seringes I had. I also broke of contact with friends who kept me in that world, and changed my behaviour when it comes to dating on chatrooms. Dont forget the danger of that too! It's a package deal. I sought help by going into therapy too. I want my life back. Please take me as an example of an ordinary neat guy, who got in touch with THE most dangerous drugs in the whole world. Its so very deceiving (together with the gay life style) this meth. I hope I will be strong and can hold on the new life. Good friends, family and work and enhoying life as it is without drugs, that is how we are meant to life, DO NOT be fooled by meth's first appealing side effects, its pure destruction of mind and body, but also your inner soul. Take care guys!!
