Welcome


Welcome to the POZ Community Forums, a round-the-clock discussion area for people with HIV/AIDS, their friends/family/caregivers, and others concerned about HIV/AIDS.  Click on the links below to browse our various forums; scroll down for a glance at the most recent posts; or join in the conversation yourself by registering on the left side of this page.

Privacy Warning:  Please realize that these forums are open to all, and are fully searchable via Google and other search engines. If you are HIV positive and disclose this in our forums, then it is almost the same thing as telling the whole world (or at least the World Wide Web). If this concerns you, then do not use a username or avatar that are self-identifying in any way. We do not allow the deletion of anything you post in these forums, so think before you post.

  • All members of these forums are, by default, not considered to be licensed medical providers. If otherwise, users must clearly define themselves as such.

  • Forums members must behave at all times with respect and honesty. Posting guidelines, including time-out and banning policies, have been established by the moderators of these forums.

How do you meet other pozzies for friendship, besides support groups and people you already knew.

Hey wtf -
There are several ways: 1) of course these Forums - if you have a chance to come to AMG - you should - you can also let people know whereabouts you live (City, State, Country) and many times there are other members on here who live either close by or visit the area for business or other reasons 2) here in South Florida we have The Center for Positive Connections - that has social events for pos people and Positive Muse - which also has events for pos people to meet and connect.  3) Local ASOs usually have events (other than support groups) set up for Poz people - the local GLBT community center here has Bingo and other events that lots of pos people go to and 4) there are some bars/clubs where you can sometimes meet other pos people - just in the course of conversating you sometimes find out you share a common bond of being positive.

Hope some of these help.
