Do I need hiv testing?
Hello, I am worried about HIV recently. I quarreled with the landlord a few months ago, and I was worried that the landlord would retaliate. I locked the door of my room every day before going to bed, but twice when I got up the next morning, I found the door was unlocked (I don’t remember if I forgot to lock the door the night before). I am worried that someone would come into my room while I was asleep and inject me with HIV blood or drugs, which would make me infected with HIV. Do I need to go to the hospital for testing?

Oh, it's time to not beat around the bush. This is over the top thinking and paranoid. It's irrational and true anxiety playing tricks on you. How about getting some help for that? Anxiety is your issue, not hiv. You've already been told the risks for HIV which once again (last time) are unprotected vaginal or anal sex or sharing IV drug needles.
No. This is not a rational concern that would ever happen in reality. If you find yourself having these types of thoughts on a regular basis, it's very important for you to seek mental health assistance to help you with overcoming such irrational thinking.
