About new2theclub

Diagnosed positive in July 2008 after getting ill, and started treatment September 2008. I've got a pretty good attitude about the whole thing, it's not going to rule my life, but at the same time it's part of me and if I can do any good... bring it on!! I'm just a normal guy who'd like to make some new friends who understand what it's like. Come and say hi!

More About new2theclub

I'm very thankful to family and friends (including those who I have never met) for kind words, support and the occasional kick in the pants!

I, like many other on here, have up days and down days; but I refuse to let this thing take control of my life.

The one rule I live by is "Never regret the things you've done when there's so much more to do in the future".  I accept my mistakes and move on - why let the past spoil the future??  I'm not perfect, but show me someone who is!!

I've started to do a spot of volunteering at a local hiv charity, handing out leaflets and condoms and ensuring that hiv is still a topic of conversation.
