After medical tests, counselors told him he had contracted HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.
He believes he contracted the disease while having sex with strangers while on meth.
Hmm, Smith spent years having unprotected sex. Now he's been diagnosed with HIV. Smith believes he may have contracted the disease while having all that unprotected sex with strangers over the years. I think Smith's belief is correct.
As sad as the situation is, your comment made me laugh. Me thinks the APA should not have let homosexual activism convince them to declassify homosexuality as a mental disorder.
