Fear
has anyone ever heard of a case of someone contracting HIV by being stabbed/injected with hiv blood through a syringe? Huge fear. I blacked out one night and had a weird mark on me a few days later and that’s immediately where my mind went.
This is a legend, and we are not able to support unfounded fears based on rumors and "what if" scenarios. If you find yourself concerned over irrational fears, we suggest consulting a therapist.
