Consequences
What
Will Happen if I Get an STD?
Many STDs can be cured and all STDs can be treated to control the
symptoms. But no matter what STD it is you are diagnosed with, you
may experience a whole bunch of different emotions.
Many people report feeling ashamed, they don't want to tell anyone
because of how embarrassing it feels. Partners often feel betrayed,
or like victims. Some people may even try to deny that they have been
diagnosed with an STD.
The truth of the matter is, people who are diagnosed with STDs are
not bad people. They are not dirty, and they are not alone. Sexually
transmitted diseases are very common. In fact, every year over 15
million people are diagnosed with STDs and a quarter of all these
cases happen in teenagers. That's over 3 million teenagers a year!.
