okay so the name is Nicky Italia. I was infected August 24 08 and diagnosed the 27 of September. i have really bad drug addiction problems but am trying my best to make NA meetings and stay sober. I am also on Probation so that really pushes me to stay sober so i dont get locked up again. I have really bad issues with myself due to having this disease. i havent accepted it yet, right now it IS defining me and i dont want it to be that way. Well im here for support and also to give support. I am only 17 but am pretty wise for my age, so if you need advice or just some 1 to talk 2 im your girl!!
