Jennifer, you are an amazing ray of light in this world - it was so kind and generous of you to have tried to help this man with what is clearly a very serious anxiety disorder. My heart breaks for him - it sounds like he will never really be able to let go of his irrational fears unless he undergoes some intensive psychological counseling.

Jennifer I just want to thank you so much for your advice around hiv, I have been plagued ever since I was young of the fear of it, I had a test last week and it was the hardest thing I've ever done, I even used your analogy about the bungee jump about the test, it came back negative. I just want to thankyou for your videos, you truly are an angel

Great video again Jennifer this HIV anxiety is so real and thanks for shedding some light on this because I myself have suffered with this but this vid was very encouraging. Thanks.

Thank you for the reassurance. You've been a great outlet for my anxiety

Jennifer. I want to say how proud I am of your strength and honesty. I admire you so much. You're an inspiration to me. I am so happy you told your story to educate others and spread awareness. Your new friend, Adriana.

i have been freaking out the last few days about this, you’re so comforting and made me very understanding about this.

This story demonstrates the need for people like you Miss Jennifer. Yeah, this doctor is/was WAAAAAY over the top, but you are really needed.

I had serious anxiety for YEARS about possibly having HIV and convincing myself that I had symptoms... when I finally tested and it was negative, I couldn’t stop smiling. A giant weight was lifted! There wasn’t any part of me that thought I still had it. I immediately starting telling all my friends that they should test too. Everyone should know their status and trust that the test is accurate!

You are a very courageous woman, you have more love and compassion than most. You have no idea how much you're appreciated...long after we are all gone your WONDERFUL/THOUGHTFUL videos will be here to help so many. I've learned so much from your videos and your personality is amazing! Your husband is a very lucky man.

Thank You So Much Jennifer! Your videos are phenomenal and very reassuring. I had a scare once and messaged you and you responded.

It does my heart so much good to see you doing well.

Its very rampant in Illinois currently, really opened my eyes!! It could have happened to any of us Im sorry it happened to you. You are doing great! New subscriber here and Im making an appointment today to get tested!!! Thankyou beautiful lady! You are brave for talking about this. ❤❤❤

I didnt know how much I needed this. Thank you.

Jennifer has made so many people’s lives better with her advocacy. Much love and respect to her.

Your such an inspiration!!! I will keep on watching your videos.

Hey Jennifer what an inspiring lady you are !! Trust me you are showing light to many of us and your help needs to reach out to people. I am so happy to come across your videos. God bless !!

Thank you for what you do. Really. You seem like a very kind and caring person.

Your videos and smiling beautiful voice is so so so helpful and relieving for someone in a scare right now keep living your best life!

I thought I had it for years and convinced myself it would be better to just fall dead one day than to take a test. Then I decided I wanted to confront it head on, took a test today and it came back negative. What a great feeling. Thank you very much Jennifer, years after your video and is still helping people

May God bless you Jen! Greetings from El Salvador!

you are such an inspiration for many people!

She’s right, just take the test! Best cure for the anxiety!

Just watched your interview with your husband about your relationship and it was so beautiful. Your positivity is awesome! Subbed of course! ❤️♥️❤️♥️

I used to have a really big fear about getting it but I’m 8 months with my girlfriend and still free of it. As long as your partner consistently takes their medications and goes to their medical checks you’ll be fine. For those worried ask your partner to take you to the hospital, certainly gave me comfort seeing how her viral load stayed undetectable for years.

Thanks for your videos, you are inspirational!

I love your no bullshit attitude! So refreshing! 😅

You’re such an inspiring soul ! Keep on going girl 👍🏻❤️ BTW - You look great!

Hey Jennifer, I just got done balling my eyes out because I had a major hiv scare and I was praying to god and asked him to show me sign. I was scrolling through my KZfaq feed and came across this video, hopefully it’s a sign. I haven’t had the typical hiv symptoms and it’s been about a year since Unprotected sex. Don’t know if you’re religious or not but I’m so much more relived. You’re a dope lady with good spirit.

Jennifer, this video came right on time. And it's what I needed to hear. I too am suffering from HIV anxiety. All over what's considered to be a low risk exposure. I did take an oraquick test a little after a month later and it was negative. I know you should test 3 months later for a conclusive result. But here I am coming up on almost a year later and can't bring myself to do it. Im just beyond scared. But thank you for your words. You're a inspiration to us all. You'll never know what you mean to some of us who can't get through this! Thank you

I made a comment about people being a hypochondriac when Jennifer talks about her symptoms. Some ppl even tested & got a negative and they still feel they have it! It's a fear and its understandable BUT theres a limit people!! If your past the time frame and it's still showing negative, then you again are NEGATIVE!

American woman from Detroit,MI. I'm so proud of U and want to support U 100%.

Always keeping it real! Thanks Jen!

Lady I love your spirit! Your honestly amazing

Loved watching your live on Instagram. Beautiful lady.😍

Thank you for this, I get tested and STILL have anxiety after the fact. I also don’t usually ever have symptoms but my anxiety leads me to believe I am positive. It’s awful but watching your videos helps put me at ease

you're amazing Jennifer

Thank you for being an inspiration to thousands of us! I am HIV undetectable, how do you live with your illness with such a new life of somewhat of a peaceful feeling? When I watch your videos I feel like things will be ok, but a lot of my life is just filled with stress and anxiety. Again thank you for what you say.

Loving you from Oxnard, California 💖

All I can say Jennifer is wow!! Oh the ending of this video was really funny!!

So funny that this video was recommended to me. I have been taking Post Exposure Prophylaxis for the past 3 weeks, and a few days ago I was freaking out about it a bit because of joint and muscle pain, but I'm taking Atripla as PEP which is very strong and apparently that's one of the side effects sometimes, just that seroconversion can also occur in 3-4 weeks after exposure, but like I have no fever, no diarrhea, no crazy symptoms except weakness. 😂 There's a possibility I may have HIV but I probably don't, either way I should just be patient and think about other things, is really not the end of the world and you are living proof of that. Thank you for your video ❤️

I believe these individuals suffer from intense OCD/panic disorder or generalized anxiety. I suffer from OCD and ruminations can be horrible. I think a lot of this anxiety and panic is guilt or worry that’s been misdirected. Perhaps these individuals are actually worried about something else, but they hyper focus on an HIV diagnosis. That’s just what comes to mind after hearing your stories.

Thank you for making this video❤

There is so much hope for those with HIV. Some people can literally stop in a clinic 1 x per month for a shot, and live their best life. Incredible.

Thank you for such kind reassurance

Hey Jeniffer May God bless You...You are such a strong woman...I love you... From India

Thank you so much for posting this!

this literally made my day after weeks of bad luck in my program and about work. and dont worry about uploading its better to make a vid when you feel like it than to force yourself.

Thank you! Really brought me at ease

no words thank u so much jannee

I appreciate this. I have extreme anxiety about hiv and herpes. I’m a virgin , but any type of sexual encounter ( low risk exposure ) stresses me about beyond measure . I have health anxiety in general but it’s the worst with stds and I’m really trying to get over it

It’s a form of OCD. Some people will get tested over and over, and disbelieve their results. They definitely need cognitive behavioral therapy. And yes, rapid testing is easier than suffering daily with the belief you are hiv positive. Thanks, Jen for informing heterosexual men and women that the virus is difficult to transmit in the heterosexual community. There is a lot of old, Uber PC messages that lead to scaremongering and misinformation.

YOU ARE SO STRONG 💪 ❤️💕🥰

Thanks for the message

I'm really glad I found your channel! I only had one possible exposure from a female I know in the past (and right now I don't even know now if she's +, I just suspected because she found out that her ex-bf was having sex with some other girls by paying them). My anxiety is slowly killing me these past weeks :( Your videos are really helps a lot! I'm getting tested tomorrow for my peace of mind. P.S. You are so gorgeous btw.

Much love to you Jennifer, may you live 100 years. Love you .

I tested myself 7 times after exposure within like 5 months i still have days where i still freak out til this day but ive been watching you for over a year its something about your voice that just calms me down

As someone that has become very paranoid about this in the past, thank you for this video. I was so worried about this in the past that I gave myself symptoms. This I realized was a serious OCD/PTSD/Anxiety issue I had that I needed to overcome. Oraquicks are great, Blood tests are better. If you are not positive at 6 to 8 weeks post-exposure with an oraquick it is not likely to change at the 3-month window. However, if you are that worried, a blood test is very accurate at 1 month. Now If I was to have unprotected sex with someone, They are taking an OraQuick first.

I love you and don't even know yah!!! Keep being great!!!

🗣U Are A Star !!! 🗣And A Queen !!!!! 🗣You Rock .....🤔Wait People Who Rock Are -ROCK STARS ....SO U TECHNICALLY A ROCK STAR TO ....AWESOME!!!!

Sis U r great After I exposure I look all your video sis.. Make a video about PEP and PREP.. And HIV testing baseline and accurate.... Sis MY personal question is Will PEP extend the testing window PERIOD.... PLZ sis....

Thank you for the videos

I had massive anxiety that was eating me alive. I probably wouldn't be able to cope with one more day... I couldn't eat, sleep, think positively. The tests came out negative today. Thanks for your video's dear ❤ Now I want to become a priest.

Crazy stuff happened. I was sexually assaulted, few days later I started having flu like symptoms. Two weeks later I went to a clinic and asked for STDs testing. They all came back negative. I wasn't convent's because of the window period and two week was too early for testing. So for three months I was sick and had all of the symptoms like crazy. This was the sickest time I ever been in my life. Every glands in my body was swollen and including all of the symptoms you had. Thing started getting worse after my boyfriend started having the same symptoms as me after me. I was so scared, thinking I would never forgive myself if I infected him. I was depressed, I started thinking ways of committing suicide. I started praying like three times a day for three months. I started watching your videos and it helped me to expect what is going to come. I was thinking of the hiv, at the three months mark I finally did Oraquick hiv home test and it came back negative. We still don't know why I was sick this bad. Do you guys think I should test again at the six months park?

I think most of us getting scared and try to live with it without being tested kinda triggers somthing in our brain to make us think somthing is wrong with us i started having bad anxiety from weed

I can tell u y, which I'm sure u already know but even tho he is a Dr, he may b a Vet or a podiatrist who knows but he wanted reassuring from someone who is going thru bcuz he may not believe experiments, articles, research and possibly treating others with HIV-maybe he has and they didn't get better but he wanted someone he felt comfy with to b by his side! Ur very confident, knowledgeable, assuring and smart in this field and u make everybody feel comfortable...ur a Rockstar!!

I did a small surgery in hospital The doctor used scalpel, is HIV virus which in inactive on a scalpel due to exposure to open air is capable to infect a person if cut with the same scalpel to cause bleeding?

I had appendicitis during thanksgiving. When I got home from the hospital, I was really anxious and woke up the first hour of sleep in a night sweat. I looked up the symptoms... and it was “ possibly HIV.” Ever since then can’t get these anxious thoughts out of my head. Great videos btw and so glad you’re doing well!

I'll get tested very soon, positive or negative I'm never having sex again for peace of mind, not infecting someone else and never having to worry about that shit again, not fuckin worth it.

love to see you're happy with your son ...

You are very strong person!

I'm going through an HIV scare now. You've honestly become my hero. I fall asleep to your videos. Thank you. Thank you. ❤ I'm gonna take the test tomorrow and put this fear to rest!

Your videos help me to go test. I had health anxiety and was depressed and scared. I watched your video yesterday went to the testing side, while waiting for my turn i was watching your videos to give me the courage😂😂😂. Long story short i am negative. Keep being you, you are helping somany people❤

I was like this and for one year I took hiv test every week. I change the places that I took the test cause I thought the people were lying to me about my results. It was scary. I had to start going to a psychologist to get over the me thinking I had it.

Hey whats goin on jennifer i had a question for you and id really appreciate if you could answer for me is there any possibility of a false negative at 10 months? Ive had 2 tests after my exposure 1 year and a half ago i had a 10 panel std test after about 3 weeks after the exposure and then i had another one a couple months ago at the 10 month mark is it wise to retest because of a chance of a false negative?

Your soul is beautiful

It's called a phobia and it's a mental condition. A phobia by definition is irrational.

You are so beautiful jenny...you made me stronger

Hi Jennifer would you consider a test conclusive after 8 weeks of possible exposure

I just tested and result is coming next week. I am so nervous, but your video makes me feel better.

I was worried about HIV and I have a serious health anxiety for a long time. I decided to take a test and got non reactive results (negative). Power to you Jennifer. Your videos helped me to gather the courage and take a test.

I want u to talk about the hiv test, n false positive

Thank you..God bless you.

Is there any difference between Haart and art , and one question for u mam how you react when u got diagnosed positive

Ahh I’m so sorry cause I know you probably get bombarded bombed and slammed with ppl with hiv anxiety! Bless you I hope ppl will realize and wake up about it!!! I think it’s because you study it and know all the facts and you did your research!

You are a blessing to the female HIV community! God bless you! They gave HIV to the WRONG ONE! You are an HIV WARRIOR❤

so happy you back girl

In the early 90s I wrote farewell letters to all my family. I found out a girl I had been with had been with about 500 guys. The scare was so bad then. They said 1 in 7 had it. Also you could go 10 years and not know. So.. We all thought we were dying. It did something to me. I worried daily. Noone had answers. Totally messed me up. Later my uncle died from it. Which added to my fears. I was afraid to get tested. So I remained celebate for many years. I stayed away from family because they said you could get from kissing , sharing utensils, sneezing , urine and fecal matter etc. Very detrimental time for me. Not sure I've fully recovered from the worry

I fell like I have this HiV anxiety . I had a sexual encounter with some who I didn’t know well. And feel like I got all the symptoms and got tested and it was negative but I feel like I still have it and it can be wrong . I’m planned another test for a month from now . I need help :(

Just took my test came back negative I cried for a week straight scared to take that test just told myself to go finally went an got the results I was praying for

I love u so much so thanks for this

I don't have hiv but I find your content really comforting

I was so scared to be tested 😢I got raped. After that I started hearing rumors the man had hiv. He was sickly looking. He coughed blood up and was thin. I also had slept around when I was very young. I’m pregnant with my first child and decided after years of waiting to get tested. I been tested multiple times and am hiv NEGATIVE. I broke down crying because I was so happy and relieved I had convinced my self I was dying and their was no going back. I’m extremely careful now and wish I would of just been tested.

how do you know if your are infected, 1 month after contact you have been already noticed of simptoms

I’m not sure if what looks like a minor skin rash on my arms (where my pulse points are) is caused by my excessive use of perfumes or if it’s hiv..how can you tell the difference? Everything else in terms of symptoms-I do not have

Ooooo I am first? Yay LoL first watch and comment!

Is an Eliza test conclusive after 5 or more years of exposure... All this time I never had any sexual encounters... Some people are saying to retest... Do I need to?

Hey mam I tested 100 days after exposure I test negative But it was tridot kit test can u tell me I am safe or still I have to worry

Does HIV cause shortness of breath and lower back pain

Is there anyway I can talk to you somehow like do you have a Facebook or an email etc I have some serious questions etc and love how honest and open you are.

Thank you for the comforting did some nasty things like oral and I’m afraid that I have hiv. Cuz my tonsils are swollen and they had some mucus on them it’s been almost one week that my throat has been inflamed. I hope I’m okay. But in 90 days imma buy the oral check at cvs for 40 dollars since it’s 300 to get tested at the hospital
