Today, February 18, 2015, I started my journey with PrEP. One blue pill, not that kind of blue pill though, taking away the wonder.
So, why. Well, the why behind my deciding to take the PrEP is two fold. First and most importantly, I wanted to add another item to my prevention tool belt. Back before the 'pill' was widely used, there was stigma behind women using it. They finally had the control over their own prevention. This blue pill is helping us to have more control. Condoms have a very important purpose, but as we are all human, they sometimes don't get used or they break. PrEP is there to ease that anxiety.
The second reason why I wanted to start PrEP was to be able to be a share the experience with you and my peers at SAN. I wanted to walk through the process and be able to help others make it through the process successfully.
The reason for this blog is to share my experiences, hopefully daily or every few days. Today has been a regular day, nothing out of the ordinary other than a feeling of less anxiety in my life.
I'll be writing more soon.
