Family
You may immediately want to tell your family that you have HIV. However, many people find this very difficult. Breaking the news to your family can be distressing for both you and them. There’s no right or wrong time to tell your parents, brothers or sisters that you have HIV. Some people tell them immediately, others after years, and some people never tell their family. You know best what and/or when they would like to know, and how and when to tell them.
