As a Mum, taking medication meant that HIV did not get passed on to my son.
As an HIV-negative person, knowing those on medication can't pass it on helps me feel reassured and empowered. It has removed the fear and stigma of testing.
My HIV medication means I am living my life! I do not feel guilty or ashamed, in fact I look at life in a more positive way.
My partner takes his little pill and he cannot pass HIV on to me.
As a queer man who has been taking HIV medication for over a decade, it's as much a part of my routine as applying my glitter.
