Do you see herpes as a dead weight in your life? Does herpes drag you down with every step? If we are not aware of our relationship with herpes, it will drag us down, as if you were going to strap on a few kilos of weights and walk through life denying the existence of weight. Eventually, you may just want to give up out of sheer exhaustion.

But what else are weights for? How do people really look at weight in their lives? Those people who want to be stronger. If you go to the gym with the intention of getting stronger, you’ll approach weightlifting from a very different perspective. You will appreciate that initially lifting the weight may be difficult because it is new. But you know that it will serve your health and quality of life. Eventually, lifting weights will become easier… just something that becomes a positive habit in your life.

Laugh all you want, but herpes is like lifting weights, like exercising, but from a psychological angle. If you have the mindset that this thing called herpes can make you stronger if you use it in a positive way, then it will. Every time you reveal it to your partner, every time you have herpes and you are not ashamed of it, every time you do something positive despite having herpes, that is strengthening your character. These are all repetitions in the gym of life (well, stop laughing).

It’s a simple law of nature: problems avoided become bigger problems; Matters that are faced with a positive attitude help you grow and become stronger. It is no different with herpes.
