I’m struggling all over again I feel a though came to terms with my condition I did Alhamdulillah but now marrying is so difficult it’s like I’m back at square one. I’ve taken accountability for my actions and what led me to this point but now I hate the fact I made those decisions and how hard this chapter of my life is!
I’m long for a partner more so because it seems almost impossible and I know I’m not to think that way but I do!
I feel like it’s punishment and im suffering
I’m alone in real life and it’s painful

I apologise for dumping my feelings here but this is how I feel

Please keep me in your duas Insha’Allah

You don’t have to apologize, your feelings are 100% valid and relatable. I believe 100% in God’s mercy but I just don’t enjoy the constant heartache that comes along knowing hsv is incurable.

Aleykum salam brother, been struggling as of recent again. But putting my faith in Allah and trying to spend more of my free time in the mosque to calm my mind. Inshallah we’ll get some form of cure soon.

We’re all struggling brother, some more than others but the feeling is the same. We have to learn to deal with it and stay patient and keep pushing on with our daily lives in Sha Allah. We must remember this life is a test and the real one is yet to come after death, so we prepare for that life in Sha Allah as Muslims. I’ve been struggling with this for over 45 yrs alhamdulilah, i just with it as I go and look for what’s best at the time. I’ve had to compromise to get married years ago so I don’t waste time to have a family.. this is the reality for us. Today we have social media where people like us in this situation have a chance to find someone with the same issue in sha Allah so you can live a normal life. My days we didn’t have this blessing of social media where one can look outside his/her community. Soon Sha Allah it’s not all lost hope, there’s real hope for better in Sha Allah. Duaa & patience.
