suicidal thoughts

Even with your assurance my mind is still thinking that I've put myself and my partner in risk and maybe I already infect my partner without me knowing. Although my exposure is protected anal with csw, but I can't get rid of my mind that it is a no risk. Lately I'm having suicidal thoughts. I really hope it is a no risk and I won't be catching any STIs

Please focus on your mental health right now. Talk to your doctor about your anxiety, and focus on working on that.

You had no risk for STIs, and therefore can't infect your partner. Remember that guilt does not equal risk.

Condoms work.  This is a fact.  Please don' t let these thoughts creep in.  Suicide is NEVER the answer, especially as there was no risk!
