Day 15: the day that never was (PrEP)

So, yes I disappeared for a few days for a good reason. I feel that I don't need to get on here everyday and say the same thing. But today was different. I finished off 14 days on the pill on yesterday. However, I slipped off the wagon. I had every intention to take that lil blue pill call PrEP however I let my outside circumstances take the best of me. Today I was super busy getting prepped for an event at Coney Island in August that I didn't get a chance to eat. Not because I didn't have the opportunity to eat, but I didn't have the funds to purchase that high priced stuff out there. I didn't leave there till four and took us till after six to get back to Harlem. Then took me til 9 to get home to finally eat. But by then I felt it was too late to take it. So yes, I fucked up and I didn't keep my momentum going.

But the best part about messing up is you can start all over and make it right the next time. Learn from your experiences and don't let them get you down. I have got breakfast foods now so I can take the pill everyone morning with breakfast as a way of not having this happen again. It will also get me in the routine of actually eating every morning again. I stopped this back a while ago when my money started decreasing. But I won't let it continue. I won't allow anything or anyone to stop me.  I think this pill has helped me get a little structure back in my life.

Yes I missed the pill but there's still enough of the drug in my system to protect me. Plus, I'll be back on it tomorrow, so don't you worry I'll be alright. Have any of you on it currently skipped a day or two here and there? How did it make you feel. I'm not going to let it effect me I'm just going to keep it moving. We all make mistakes. Well anyway goodnight all. Keep the comments and shares coming.

    1. Thanks so much Bobby. I woke up this morning and I got right back on my routine and took my pill. So I believe never give up even when you make a mistake. But thanks again for reading.

  2. Antoine, I am in KKL just like you, and your blog has honestly made me consider prep. Just like you I am so not a fan of condoms, I only wear them cuz of necessities , but it deft takes away from me enjoying sex. But I'm visiting my doctor and I am going to ask him about prep.
