My friend called me really upset the other day. She just found out she has herpes and was freaking out. I didn’t know what to say or to do to calm her down. What can I say? Apparently it’s normal for people to go through depression, suicidal tendencies, isolation. You wonder who you got it from, do they know they have it, did you give it to anyone… I wish there was a way that I could help her. I wish I lived closer so that I could just give her a hug when she is feeling down.
