Ranjana Singh (Author)

Synopsis HIV is still incurable and the stigma of this infection has many implications for human beings, especially in developing countries. This book discusses the many psychological, social and economical problems of infected individuals, besides coping strategies. Infected individuals develop psychological problems because they give in to misconceptions that they are suffering from an incurable and deadly disease. To help them cope with HIV, they need emotional support. They also need to take proper nutrition and expensive medical care. To get over their sadness, they watch TV, listen to music, talk with friends and neighbors and turn to religion.
