Reply To: HSV1 worries and anxiety

[Anxiousqueen]

So since I have been “positive” for over 2 years without any symptoms, I constantly now check myself and it’s become a bit of an consistent worry and OCD.

Do you think I should let it go? Or could the virus be dormant and randomly decide to be a genital outbreak? Should I avoid giving my future husband oral sex?

I still am upset that doctor tested me for this with no symptoms as it has truly affected me mentally.

Thanks.
