First steps into a "positive" life: The Buddy Project
The initial reactions after an HIV diagnosis are varied and the question often arises: "What happens next?" Then it is good to know someone with whom you can talk openly about everything - and who also knows exactly what you are talking about.
The "Buddy Project" of Deutsche Aidshilfe helps further: Under www.buddy.hiv newly diagnosed HIV-positive people throughout Germany can look for a buddy, i.e. someone who has been living with the infection for some time and can accompany them on their first steps into a "positive" life.
