If you decide the time is right to start treatment, have a good attitude going in. Believe that:
- Starting treatment is the right decision for you
- The HIV medications will help you fight the virus
- You can take your medications the right way
Whatever decision you make, don’t go it alone. Put together a support system including your health care provider, nurses, social workers, and case managers. You may want to join a support group of other HIV+ people. Family and friends can help too.
The more you think and talk about your decision, the better the outcome. What ever you decide to do, keep going to your health care provider for regular check ups and blood work.
