We'd like to invite you to browse through TheBody.com's newly launched Just Diagnosed Resource Center. Whether you've just found out your status or you're an HIV/AIDS worker looking for powerful materials, we've got a huge amount of information, personal stories and words of wisdom.

Here's a quick sampling of some of the terrific new features available at our Just Diagnosed Resource Center:

Advice From Other HIVers
We asked a wide range of HIV-positive people: "What advice would you give someone who was just diagnosed with HIV?" Read or listen as dozens of people from all walks of life offer their personal perspective.

Tips on Telling Others You're Positive
How do you tell friends or family that you have been diagnosed with HIV? Read or listen as HIVers share their experiences and offer some handy tips. You're also welcome to add your own tips.

Dispelling Myths About HIV/AIDS
Even though the facts about HIV are well known, misinformation about HIV abounds. We asked HIV-positive people and health care workers about some of the craziest myths they've heard. Read or listen to what they had to say -- and add myths you've heard.

The Experts Speak: "If I Were HIV Positive"
Experts tell others what to do. That's their job. But what if they were infected with HIV? When would they start treatment? What medications would they take? Read or listen as HIV-negative HIV specialists and HIV advocates share their thoughts on what they would do if they tested positive. (More interviews coming soon!)

In addition to all of these new interviews, the Just Diagnosed Resource Center also features new, quick-and-easy overviews with tips on these topics and more:

Stop in now and give our Just Diagnosed Resource Center a spin. We hope you find it a supportive, comforting source of information and inspiration as you adjust to life with HIV. Please write us with your feedback and suggestions!

Stay well,

Ahmad Salcido

Ahmad Salcido, San Francisco, Calif.
Diagnosed in 2007

"When I tested HIV positive I felt lonely and deserted. ... There was this pain that wouldn't go away. ... I was like, 'I need to tell someone. I cannot handle this on my own.' If you have a true friend, I think your mind, your instinct, will tell you."

Damaries Cruz, Deerfield Beach, Fla.
Diagnosed in 1991

"There's hope! You're not HIV. You are you. You have a soul just like everyone else. ... There's life after HIV. Your life doesn't stop. For me, my life began. I stopped smoking, I stopped drinking, I changed my life around."
