HIV/AIDS
Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
When HIV/AIDS was new to society, people were fearful. Beginning in the late 1980s, I have worked with people diagnosed with HIV/AIDS as an advocate, activist, and counselor. Thankfully, science has progressed by leaps and bounds to help individuals with these diagnoses lead healthy, productive lives. Yet still, the stigma associated with HIV/AIDS remains, as does the fear of succumbing to what was once a life sentence. Let us engage in a process of living fully and mindfully with our dis-ease to facilitate acceptance and awareness of the needs and sensitivities of our body. Indeed, there is hope and there is evidence that survival and living well with HIV/AIDS is possible.
