Following an effective Q&A framework, the book summarises biomedical and psychological knowledge about the condition and its treatment and provides practical guidance on how to live with HIV. People living with HIV are at the heart of the book, within the authorship team, through personal testimonies from those with lived experience in different global regions, and in the person-centred content. The book contains chapters on HIV information, living with HIV, sharing an HIV status, sex and relationships, family and friends, treatment and care, and growing older with HIV. It offers support regardless of age, income level, sexuality or gender, whilst explicitly acknowledging the impact of intersectionality and systemic social inequalities.
Designed for people living with HIV, their loved ones, and healthcare professionals, this book serves as an invaluable resource for counsellors, mental health practitioners, and health and social care workers.
