STD’S
If I had a friend or a loved one that suspected that she might have a sexually transmitted disease; I would tell her that it is not the end of the world. I would ask her who her family physician is and make an appointment for her to see a doctor. I would go with her to the doctor to give my support. If my friend or love one does not have a family physician, then I would make an appointment with the health department in our local area and go with her to the health department. I would ask my friend or love one who she thinks that she might have encountered the STD’S from and how many partners have she been with. I would let my friend or love one know that after she visits the doctor and finds out she has STD’S; her partner or partner’s would need to see a doctor to keep from spreading the infection. I would let my friend or love one know that she needs to be more careful and use a barrier method for herself. I would tell her just because a young man looks and smells good doesn’t mean that he is free of STD’S. I would tell her to play it safe and before having sex, equal partner’s should have a physical or at least a blood test to see if either of them has STD’S. I would let her know that STD’S is nothing to be ashamed of or for her to blame herself because, the blame is equally divided. I would tell her that STD’S is in all cultures, races and socioeconomic statuses. I would let my friend or love one know that no one is looking down on her because, we all learn from our mistakes. As a friend, I would let her view pictures from a physician’s office or by the internet of what STD’S can do to a human body if not treated. I would let her know that STD’S is a serious condition that can be fatal if not acted on when the first signs are seen or felt.

Cassy,
It is good that you thought the scenario out all the way through, from start to finish. STDs are serious, and if one is afraid they may have contracted one, they should see a physician ASAP, because "it may not be the end of the world." There are treatments available to cure people of some STDs, and the sooner one knows the better. I think for a friend to approach me with such a story means there is an open line of communication which means to me personally that I would have already have had a conversation with my friend about sexual protection. I talk to all my friends about sex, because it is a serious topic to be discussed. I think times are changing, and people are becoming more open about the subject of sex.
