Diagnosed with HIV a year ago

With all the hookup culture rising in bangalore and tier 1 cities, people are getting drunk and having sex with strangers. Have you ever observed in your friend circle people getting infected with STDs or HIV. How common has HIV become or is it still rare and I am worrying without any sense.

I started smoking vapes back in 2019 when a friend of mine introduced me to Juul. I was instantly hooked and loved the flavours. I got so hooked that I used to smoke an average of ~5k puff vape every three days. The nicotine and juicy flavours was what made it too addictive and I always felt that it was much healthier than a cigarette. Last week, I fainted while climbing stairs and I felt like I couldn't breathe. I was thereafter rushed to the hospital by my roommates. Scans showed several lesions inside my lungs from the harmful chemicals inside. Initial diagnosis was popcorn lungs, and prognosis does not look promising. With no shot at full recovery, the treatment is going to be symptomatic only. Fucked my life and threw away the best years of my life. My parents are extremely disappointed in me and I feel like a dead man already. Don't SMOKE and Don't VAPE.

Because they are gonna be very angry of me being gay, which idc but i dont want the drama and also I’m still dating and finding people. How do you hide your dates from parents and siblings and still go out if on wfh ? Any suggestions?

Had a regular yearly check up 2 weeks back and found that I'm diabetic. Both my parents are diabetic and I assumed I'll be as well at some point in my life as an inheritance from them but never thought this early. I did not tell this to anyone, not even my wife. Took me 2 weeks to get hold of myself and let the feeling sink in. Started making changes to my life style since yesterday and started working out as well. Today is Day-2.

- At a major HIV conference, scientists announced a 60-year-old man in Germany has been free of the virus for almost six years after a stem-cell transplant. - Despite the success, stem-cell transplants are not a scalable solution due to their aggressive nature and associated risks. - Standard HIV treatment involves daily antiretroviral therapy (ART), which reduces viral load but is not a cure. - Advances in gene therapies and long-term treatments are in early stages, with some injectable antivirals approved for use. - Vaccine development faces challenges, but recent studies show promise in generating broadly neutralizing antibodies.

[TL;DR former National quizzing champ dropped out of B. Tech in 2020 during peak of addiction and depression . Got over it and sober in Jan'23, resumed college and completed my B. Tech in Feb'24. Picked up coding again and feel ready for a job now Should I be honest or lie about the gap? Been ghosted my few recruiters whom I was honest with.] JS developer here. I used to be a decent student, public speaker and one of the best quizzers in the college scene (former National Champ). But I never addressed some traumatic events that took place in my life before I turned 16. My depression took refuge in substance abuse and I abandoned all studies/career prospects during the pandemic. Eventually after 7 years of using, I got clean/sober in Jan'23 and resumed my studies. I earned my degree but on paper it took me 8 years to complete a 4 year B. Tech (2016-24). Reasonably I get asked about the gap in my academics by hr/recruiters whom I push my CV to. I've been dead honest to them about my struggles with mental health and addiction in the past. And I've been getting ghosted. (It could be because of skill reasons on my part but I'm not even getting a feedback). Should I not tell recruiters the truth about the gap? Should I leave the addiction bit out? How should I word it? I've never held a real coding job before but been slogging for the last 6 months to get better each day (my github and projects will reflect that). Please help me out with all your valuable suggestions. If you're a tech recruiter let me know how you would perceive my case.
